Make your railway wheel safer with
ChakrVue
The Problem
Shelling makes railway wheels unsafe.
Modern railway coach wheels frequently experience shelling, a form of erosion resulting from wheels sliding along the tracks. This wear and tear can cause chunks of metal to break away from the tread surface, disrupting the smooth functioning of trains, considerably shortening the lifespan of the wheels, and impacting safety.
Even with the inclusion of Wheel Sliding Protection Device (WSPDs) in coaches produced by several Indian Railways (IR) factories, the durability of the wheels remains disappointingly low, lasting only about three years instead of the anticipated seven.
The Solution
Raillabs’s ChakrVue
ChakrVue is an innovative IoT-based solution that mimics the anti-lock braking system (ABS) found in modern automobiles. Designed to collect and analyse data from trains to understand and predict wheel shelling, it helps extend the lifespan of railway wheels through advanced data analytics and predictive maintenance and improve safety. It also includes the Shelling Analytical Tool (SAT) to provide deep insights and predictive analytics.
Currently deployed in 20 MCF coaches across three divisions, ChakrVue has been performing successfully for the past two years, offering a robust solution to the persistent problem of wheel shelling.
