Dynamic railway weighing system

The automatic dynamic railway weighing and measurement system makes it possible to weigh locomotives and railway wagons while they are moving. The load cells are connected to an application that receives data on the weight and length of the entire train formation (train and locomotive), along with other characteristics of the wagons and locomotive. Data transfer is fully automated, allowing users to track cargo online in real time from anywhere and at any time. Thanks to the co-funding obtained, the train formation will be able to pass over the weighing cells faster than before. The system also enables more precise weighing and eliminates data-reading errors through automation.
