Third-party sensors for your overview

Sensor technologies from other providers can be seamlessly integrated into the TRENPEX system by combining their results with image data from our own measurements and processing them in such a way that you, the customer, receive a comprehensive overview of the information you need.

Many industrial and logistics companies already rely on radiation portals, scales, RFID systems, or specialized sensors—but all too often, these systems operate in isolation from one another. As a result, manual data collection, fragmented records, and delayed responses lead to inefficiencies, increase risks, and leave room for costly errors.

TRENPEX changes this: In the spirit of “The whole is greater than the sum of its parts”, you as a customer gain a comprehensive view of your entire plant traffic through the combination of individual sensor data. Our solution connects your existing standalone systems into a holistic information network, unlocking their full potential. Regardless of whether your hardware communicates via direct data feeds, APIs, or file transfers, TRENPEX is capable of automating your data collection, combining it with high-resolution images and automatically recognized vehicle and container data (OCR), and performing calculations that provide insights of higher value than those from individual sensor detection systems. And best of all: you receive all these insights for immediate implementation almost in real time:

  • Update legacy systems with automated alerts and visual documentation to ensure immediate action when problems are detected
  • Link weighing data to vehicle identification to avoid manual errors and optimize load verification
  • Future-proof your business-TRENPEX adapts to your changing needs so you're never stuck with outdated technology

By connecting isolated data sources, TRENPEX transforms raw sensor data into strategic advantages: fewer errors, faster decisions, and logistics that are always one step ahead.

Scalable platform

Precisely tailored data for automated workflows

Manual processes and isolated systems slow down your work. TRENPEX eliminates data silos and combines sensor data, images, and analytics in a single intelligent platform. The result? Seamless automation, real-time transparency, and smarter decision-making—without tedious and error-prone manual interventions.

By integrating third-party sensors into TRENPEX's advanced imaging and analysis, you benefit from the following advantages:

  • A unified overview of all freight movements, vehicle statuses, and operating figures
  • Automatic alerts for critical issues-from contamination to wheel defects-so you can take action before problems escalate
  • Actionable insights that transform raw data into strategic value, reduce costs, and increase efficiency

Turn data into action. With TRENPEX, your logistics operations are not only connected, but also smarter, faster, and ready for the future.

Individual requirements

Smart combination of sensors and data

The TRENPEX solution combines findings from various sensor technologies with image data obtained from its own measurements and processes them in such a way that you, the customer, receive a comprehensive overview of the information you need.

  • Do you need to know immediately which vehicle is contaminated with radioactive radiation?
  • Do you need to be able to clearly identify and classify flat spots?
  • Do you need meaningful information about wheel profiles and hot runners?
  • Do you inspect pantographs and overhead lines and need immediate notification if they are malfunctioning or damaged?
  • Would you like to link your RFID data with data from optical image recognition for better control?

If the interfaces of these third-party providers allow it, TRENPEX offers you a comprehensive and user-friendly overall system that enables you to work accurately, easily, and quickly and manage your processes conveniently.
