Mechatronics

The trends are quite clear – the desire for control and Monitoring systems continues to rise in passenger rail transportation. At the same time, the intelligence of systems in freight traffic is also increasing. In addition, the unification of European rail networks has also been planned. This is associated with an increase in cross-border traffic, which can already be seen today. The demand for safety requires continuous monitoring of the operating conditions of essential Running gear and drive components and therefore mechatronic system solutions.
