The AX1200 is a multi-axle wheel force measuring system designed to read the forces of railcar wheels, which is then converted to a digital signal for data analysis. This is a vital process for ensuring compliance to world standards. The AX1200 eliminates the problem of track levelling errors thanks to adjustable scales, capable of offsetting any errors.
The AX1200 is a portable, mobile weighing system designed to fit all standard rail gauges easily, and only takes 15 minutes to install.
The AX1200 comes in wired and wireless versions. The wireless has a range of up to 300m with 16 channels to reduce external interference.
Smart battery technology is built into the AX1200 as standard, with an auto-sleep, low power consumption mode allowing optimum energy performance.
The AX1200 comes with an easy-to-use operating system for testing against all worldwide standards, complete with streamlined drag-and-drop functionality.
Built for versatility, accuracy and ease-of-use, the AX1200 attaches easily to any standard gauge.
The system allows for easy installation to any track, with adjustable scales allowing the operator to offset any errors in track levelling.
Available in both wired and wireless versions, the AX1200 is built to accommodate all multi-axle measuring needs.
The wireless system offers a 10 hour battery life and a 300m range, while the wired system comes with a portable terminal and an integrated thermal printer.
Its operating system is easily operated with a simple drag-and-drop functionality, again prioritising simplicity.
The AX800 conforms to DIN EN 15654, DIN 27201, EN 1436, DIN EN 50215 and UIC V660 standards.
