Benefits of the trenpex system
Savings
trenpex also achieves direct savings in existing processes through optimisations and efficiency improvements.
Efficient weighing
Automatic and seamless weighing in which the weighing process does not have to be triggered manually. This results in considerable time savings and savings in operating and personnel costs.
Damage documentation
Through the seamless recording of traffic, the condition of vehicles entering and leaving the area of responsibility of the respective partners is documented by high-resolution images. Damage events can thus be clearly assigned in terms of time and geography.
Security
Numerous regulations have to be taken into account to ensure safety in rail transport. trenpex offers economic control and documentation. The information is collected automatically and can be seamlessly integrated into existing processes and software solutions.
Optical documentation
High-resolution images document and prove different conditions such as the attachment and position of closures on tankers, dangerous goods labels and the position of levers, valves and couplings.
Evaluation of the measurement data
The evaluation of the weighing and movement data generates the following information, among others:
- Compliance with the maximum weight and the maximum permissible payload
- Compliance with the maximum permissible train length
- Compliance with axle loads and metre loads
Process optimisation
The possible process optimisations that can be realised with the information from the digitalisation of rail transport through trenpex offer great economic potential.
Location and movement profiles
With a comprehensive use of trenpex, there is transparency about the whereabouts of the vehicles at all times. The evaluation of the data allows the creation of movement profiles of the individual vehicles. Dwell times and downtimes can thus be recorded and the utilisation of available capacities optimised.
Optimised logistics processes
Shunting traffic on closed rail networks such as in industrial parks/logistics parks, in mining or in ports is often controlled and optimised in modern facilities by appropriate software. With the availability of actual data in real time through trenpex, shunting traffic and logistical processes can be optimised effectively and efficiently.
Predictive maintenance
The maintenance and repair costs for rail vehicles represent a considerable cost factor. With information about the actual stress on the vehicles, maintenance intervals can be planned in line with (ab)use and the associated costs can be significantly reduced.
Usage-based billing
With trenpex, transparency is created with regard to loading. This enables (ab)usage-based billing and more economical and fair pricing of vehicle rental.
