voestalpine Railway Systems’ UniAC[2] axle counting system combines proven train detection technology with a plug-and-play design to reduce installation time, configuration risks, and maintenance effort.
Axle counting is considered as one of the most advanced methods for monitoring track sections and detecting trains. Unlike traditional track circuits, which rely on the electrical conductivity of the rails, axle counting systems use wheel sensors mounted on the track.
The robust UniAS wheel sensor and flexible AXM module combine to offer a SIL4-certified, low-maintenance train detection system engineered for modern railway networks.
voestalpine Signaling Austria GmbH and voestalpine Signaling Sainerholz GmbH, both subsidiaries of voestalpine Railway Systems GmbH, have been successfully certified to the international industry standard IRIS Certification®.
With the zentrak MODULAR DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM (MDS), voestalpine Railway Systems presents a modular diagnostic system that monitors rolling stock using a variety of sensor types.
In rail transport, enormous amounts of data are generated daily by sensors along the track, collecting information about trains as they pass over or through.
voestalpine Railway Systems optimizes fastening systems as integrated solutions, enhancing rail durability, reducing maintenance costs, and improving logistics efficiency through coordinated components and pre-assembly.
