Introduction to VIEZO

SYSTRA is Viezo’s exclusive partner in Australia. Viezo integrates sustainable energy, IoT, and machine learning algorithms to provide a comprehensive solution for monitoring rolling stock and optimizing maintenance processes.

POWERAIL – A Railcar Bearing and Wheel Health Monitoring Solution

Powerail is a reliable and cost-effective solution for wagon owners. It prioritises safety and aims to reduce maintenance costs, prevent derailments, and maximise wagon availability. By closely monitoring bearings and wheels, Powerail ensures optimal performance, improves operational efficiency, and extends component lifespan. With advanced capabilities and data-driven insights, Powerail revolutionises railway maintenance, making rail transportation more reliable and efficient.

Powerail – advanced solution designed to address problems of railway wagon bearings and wheels. It can accurately detect pitting, spalling, cracks, and dents on the bearings, as well as identify flat spots, shelling, and local dents on the wheels.

SYSTRA can support:

  • Supply and integration of Powerail into the railcar operator’s business management system.
  • Delivery of a standalone system where an HTML browser provides the user interface to a cloud-based analytics tool.

VIEZO POWERAIL SUCCESS IS BASED ON:

  • Onboard bearing and wheel health monitoring.
  • Identification of bearing issues 10,000km prior to failure, depending on environmental variables.
  • Onboard detection of wheel damage.
  • No wired connections, no battery, no maintenance during product life (>10 years).
  • Quick and Easy Installation (takes only minutes to install).

VIEZO Powerail Sensor

The sensor measures vibrations on three axes at certain intervals and sends collected data to the gateway via BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy). The sensor is equipped with an accelerometer, which can measure accelerations up to 16g at maximum speeds of 25,600 samples per second.

Powerail V2 Sensor

Powerail v2, the evolution of Powerail v1, is designed to reshape your fleet operations. 

  • Swift installation with a redesigned holder.
  • Enhanced compatibility with 3rd party gateways.
  • Additional accelerometer for improved data insights and much more.

POWERAIL SOFTWARE

Powerail software uses Viezo’s proprietary algorithms to accurately and proactively detect and report any inconsistencies or anomalies in your railway infrastructure.
