Smart Motors has successfully started testing the solution for point machine monitoring in a SP-6M Point Machine in East Europe. This is a very interesting project for several reasons, including that our product must withstand extreme cold weather conditions.

Metro de Barcelona has entrusted us the maintenance of their network track circuits. The first stage of CIVI implementation has started, and 500 of them are already in operation. We hope we will get a valuable experience in track circuit monitoring.

We have released the CIVI, a new product that monitors all types of track circuits. We have integrated the CIVI in the Monitoring System in order to monitor all the signal infrastucture from the same application.
CIVI detects occupied and free state of the track circuits and it estimates the actual shunt for the occupied state. CIVI allows the maintenance manager to properly plan maintenance operations to focus on the worst track circuits in the rail network.

Smart Motors launches a new product. Soc is a device that allows measuring the test bars gap by computer vision. The device is capable of performing up to four measurements per second generating alarms when the setup of the gap is not correct.

It also allows to take pictures of the bars at any time. This pictures will be accessible through the web client for further analysis.

When there is a problem with the gap, the system takes an automatic picture and adds it to the alert report to facilitate the analysis of the problem.

 

We have signed a comercial agreement with Weidmüller to manufacture the new DAEN Lite device. We hope that the junction of their manufacturing experience and our knowledge about point machine monitoring will allow to produce really reliable and useful devices. This is only the starting point of a what we think it will be an extremely productive partnership.
