Sentinel Motion for Rail provides a comprehensive IoT-based system for monitoring critical rail equipment, focusing on temperature, linear, rotational, and vibrational forces. Adapted from its original use in helicopter gearboxes, Sentinel Motion offers a complete toolbox for detecting and analyzing faults in the railway sector, with a particular focus on track, wheel, and bearing conditions.
Utilizing a combination of RotoSense smart sensors and the Sentinel Gateway, this system captures real-time data, enabling continuous condition monitoring alongside automated alerts for any detected anomalies. Sentinel Motion helps operators mitigate the high costs associated with bearing and wheel failures by integrating advanced diagnostic tools that deliver key insights for maintenance decisions.
Relying on field-proven technology, Sentinel Motion systems are designed to facilitate seamless implementation, with additional software applications that offer comprehensive asset management views. These instruments are adapted for extreme environments, supporting enhanced predictive maintenance strategies and significantly reducing operational costs.
