HIGHLY ACCURATE MEASURING RESULTS

Scalex Wild has a very high measuring frequency. The system measures each wagon wheel for two complete revolutions, ensuring that the measuring result is reliable. This is necessary, as lateral movement of railway equipment affecting the measuring results cannot be avoided. Any alarms are launched based on the highest measured value.
