WheelSense – Intelligent wheelset management

Developed together with our customers – with a clear focus on practical challenges

Make better decisions. Plan earlier. Avoid unnecessary downtime. Get more out of every wheel disc.

Know the condition. Control the costs.

In rail transport, the wheelset is one of the most important components of a wagon or locomotive. At the same time, it is also one of the components that causes the highest costs. This makes it all the more important to have the best possible information about the condition of the wheels. In practice, however, this is rarely the case.

Features at a glance

The perfect wheelset monitoring

Optimize your wheelset management with WheelSense!Our AI software accurately predicts wheelset wear, enables demand-driven material planning, and minimizes planning errors. Reduce maintenance times by identifying reprofiling needs at an early stage.

Vehicle monitoring

Keep track of the condition of your vehicles and wheelsets at all times. WheelSense centrally consolidates relevant measurement and condition data and makes anomalies visible at an early stage – for greater transparency in daily operations.

Wheelset analysis

Analyze wheel profiles, wear trends, and measurement histories at a glance. The software helps you assess developments for each wheelset transparently and make well-founded maintenance decisions.

Wear predictions

Identify at an early stage when a wheelset is likely to require maintenance. Based on existing measurement data, WheelSense predicts future wear development and supports proactive planning.

Material planning tool

Keep track of circulating stock and plan material requirements at an early stage. WheelSense helps coordinate upcoming maintenance measures with materials management, ensure that required components are available in time, and avoid bottlenecks in workshop planning.

Measurement app

Record measurement values directly on site – simple, digital, and traceable. The app supports employees in mobile data collection and ensures that measurement results are available in the system without media disruption.

System integration
WheelSense integrates seamlessly and resource-efficiently into your existing system.

Integrate WheelSense seamlessly into your existing IT and maintenance landscape. Interfaces enable the exchange of relevant data with existing systems and create a fully integrated digital process chain.

Compliance and data security
Your data in the best hands

Manage sensitive vehicle and maintenance data securely and transparently. WheelSense supports role-based access, transparent documentation, and data protection-compliant use in daily operations.
