SERVICE DETAILS
Indian railways is one of the largest Railways System in the world. It covers almost entire part of the country’s Transportation demand for passenger and freight segment both. It carries about 23 million passengers per day and over 3 million tons of freight every day over 65000 route killometers. It has major growth plans and needs to improve service levels and operating efficiency. As a part of this endeavor, the RFID project has been taken up which aims to automatically and accurately track and trace rolling stock as they move across the country with a special focus on improving their safety and reliability.
We have designed, developed and installed a complete system for tracking the Wagon fitted with the RFID UHF Tags with the help of RFID reader and antennas along with the Train Presence Detectors (TPDs).
The combination of all of these allows for an early identification of rolling stock that may need maintenance to enable a paradigm shift on the Indian Railways in its move to improve reliability of its Rolling Stock by moving from a predominantly time based maintenance methodology to a condition based maintenance.
Working together with CRIS, we have developed the application software for Wagon Tag Writing and reading and have done continuous improvement by incorporating the various suggestions and requirements of CRIS during development stage.
