The Future of Rail Flaw Detection – Hybrid Solutions and Beyond

The future of rail flaw detection lies in hybrid solutions that combine the strengths of rolling and sliding search systems. Rolling systems, with their ability to maintain stable acoustic contact on planar changes, and sliding systems, which excel on profile changes, can be integrated to create a versatile and robust inspection system.

Additionally, advancements in material science could lead to the development of more resilient elastic materials for rolling systems, reducing the need for adjustments and improving overall efficiency. The integration of AI and real-time automated adjustments into the INTEGRAL software suite will further enhance the precision and reliability of flaw detection.

JSC "Firma TVEMA" is at the forefront of these innovations, driving the evolution of rail inspection technologies and ensuring safer railway operations worldwide.
