Longitudinal Defects Detection


Longitudinal Defects Detection System (LDDS) inspects infrastructure devices that reside in the vertical plane along the track longitudinal axis such as catenary rope and contact wire, droppers, fixed points, insulators. It recognises changes on the infrastructure devices.


Longitudinal Defects

The analysis can also be performed taking into account data coming from a catenary geometry measurement system for cross-correlation of measured data.

Composed by two acquisition units (left and right units respect to catenary wires), the system is based on high speed linear cameras and a laser lighting module. High performance, smart vision algorithms extract relevant parameters.
