Measuring device with temperature display

Sensors

Better planning and increased efficiency: Sensors keep you informed of the status of your freight wagons and consignments at all times.

A combination of cutting-edge sensors and telematic systems supplies you with vital data about the goods you are moving by rail. Thanks to this information, you can respond immediately if anything deviates from plan. Better still, you can monitor the status of freight wagons and tank containers before damage occurs. Our sensor solutions – such as kingpin and temperature sensors – boost operating efficiency and ensure more transparent processes in rail freight transport.

True to its reputation as a rail freight innovator, VTG is constantly testing all kinds of new potential applications for digital sensor technology. Right now, for example, we are working on digital solutions such as automated braking tests and the automated recognition of loaded and unloaded wagons.

 

How you benefit:

  • Sensors capture a constant stream of vital information about your transports – giving you a solid basis on which to make fast decisions. 
  • The data helps you maximize fleet uptime: The technology immediately reports any problems or disruptions – long before they can turn into damage and losses. 
  • The sensors effectively make your rail transports smart, which means they are more efficient than ever. Manual processes are digitalized, so any irregularities in transit are flagged instantly.
