The AX300 series is an extremely versatile and robust measuring system designed specifically for determining the dimensions of railway vehicle wheels, whether for static or dynamic measurement. This system is critically important during the manufacturing and maintenance processes of railway vehicles, ensuring compliance with globally valid standards.
The AX300 system is designed to fit conveniently onto any standard gauge rail, and its installation is extremely fast, taking only 15 minutes. For reliability and flexibility, the system is available in both wired and wireless configurations.
Versatile Operation:
The AX300 is capable of both static (in-position) measurements, and dynamic (in-motion) measurements (the latter available with a software update). This dual capability ensures maximum flexibility for various inspection routines.
Fast Installation and Compatibility:
The system's design allows for quick installation on any standard railway track. The package includes the necessary accessories (rail adapters and distance rods) for seamless commissioning.
Robust Design and Protection:
Members of the AX300 series operate reliably even under extreme conditions. The housing is made of high-quality, Tool Grade material and is zinc-plated for excellent rust protection. The IP67 protection rating guarantees dust and water resistance, ensuring a long service life even in outdoor, harsh environments.
Power Supply Flexibility:
The system offers two modes of power supply:
Wired version: Equipped with built-in, rechargeable 24V batteries.
Wireless version: Operates on two AA batteries that last up to 1 year and provide a 300-meter communication range. The wired model also has 10 hours of battery life.
User-friendly Software:
The AX300 comes with a unique, customizable measurement program designed for easy use. The software features drag-and-drop functionality, which significantly simplifies setup and data management.
