Wagons differ significantly from locomotives in terms of design and operation. They generally do not have continuous on-board condition monitoring and are used in changing train formations. Relevant parameters such as wheel diameter, wheel geometry, and mileage are therefore mainly recorded within the framework of defined inspection and workshop intervals.
However, condition-based maintenance planning requires the wear and tear of individual cars to be assessed in a traceable manner over the course of their operation. Automated recording of wheel and drive data conditions is becoming increasingly important, especially in the case of high mileage and heterogeneous usage profiles.
Continuous condition assessment during operation provides the basis for targeted workshop planning, efficient utilization of maintenance capacities, and transparent documentation of the technical condition of individual wagons. At the same time, impending damage events are detected at an early stage and unplanned downtime is avoided. On this basis, wheelsets can no longer be replaced preventively, but rather condition-based according to the degree of wear.
