RAILWAY TECHNOLOGY - IVM POWERVE - Innovative Weighing System for Rolling Stocks - EN 15654-2:2019

POWERVE (POrtable WEigher for Railway VEhicles) is an innovative portable weighing system, able to determine how the weight force of a rolling stock is distributed on each wheel. POWERVE is a portable scale, that can be brought to the rolling stock to be measured and that does not need the rolling stock to be brought to the scale. POWERVE statically measures the real set-up of a rolling stock on track, since it measures the vertical forces of each wheel on the contact point, at the wheel/rail interface, and therefore it measures exactly what happens when a rolling stock is running on track. POWERVE is very easy and fast to use, it can be installed and uninstalled by a single person in a few minutes and the bogie measurement is performed in less than 10 minutes. POWERVE allows to measure up to 6 wheelsets at the same time. POWERVE Wheelset Kit is very light, since it weighs less than 25kg. POWERVE is already in line with the EN 15654-2:2019 “Railway applications. Measurement of vertical forces on wheels and wheelsets. Test in workshop for new, modified and maintained vehicles” and it automatically provides measurement reports with the values of the parameters useful to the technician for his evaluations. POWERVE is equipped with a Control System, which manages the whole measurement process and which transfers the results on a Cloud platform, in order to process and export the data in the most common formats. POWERVE IS THE IDEAL SOLUTION FOR Commissioning of new rolling stock or post-revamping rolling stock Workshop or in-field maintenance Balancing suspensions Reducing low speed derailments risk (Y/Q ratio) Verification of the distribution of traction on the driving wheels Installation of new equipment (e.g. on On-Track-Machines) Verification of the distribution of the vertical forces due to non-uniform wear of the wheel diameters Verification of the distribution of the transported cargo SYSTEM DESCRIPTION POWERVE is made up of simple metal ramps that are laid on track before each wheel and that allow, by moving forward the rolling stock, a vertical translation of the wheel 40mm higher than the rail, so to interpose the sensing elements. The measurement carried out with POWERVE raises some questions on the technology used, the measurement modalities and the obtainable precision. For further technical details please refer to the FAQ. POWERVE is an extremely modular system; it is made up of 2 main functional parts: Wheelset Kit Control System The Wheelset Kit consists in the mechanical parts and the sensing elements, including the relative acquisition boards to measure 1 single wheelset. The Control System consists in a Tablet with SW App for the implementation and the necessary controls to manage the measurement process. COMMERCIAL CONFIGURATIONS POW2X – made up of 2 Wheelset Kits (each Wheelset Kit measures the vertical forces of each wheel of the wheelset simultaneously) and 1 Control System. POW3X – made up of 3 Wheelset Kits and 1 Control System. POW4X – made up of 4 Wheelset Kits and 1 Control System. POW6X – made up of 6 Wheelset Kits and 1 Control System. Many Wheelset Kits can be used together, up to a maximum of 6, with the same Control System. INDUSTRY 4.0 POWERVE allows an easy interface with Management Systems, so that it can be included in the investments of the National Plan Industry 4.0. In Italy, this allows to benefit from the corresponding incentives provided, in the form of an hyper amortization rate of 250%. More info at: http://ivmtech.it/en/prodotti/powerve/
