Excited to share our latest advancements in predictive maintenance for overhead lines, focusing on wear, defects, and their relationship with track conditions. This is set to benefit operators in both the US and UK! Highlights include: - Defect Detection: Spotting wear, corrosion, and broken wires. - Performance Tracking: Monitoring contact thickness, temperature, and tension. - Track & Line Interaction: Analyzing how track conditions impact overhead lines for better root cause analysis. - Structural Integrity: Inspecting bridges, tunnels, and crossings. - Junction Monitoring: Ensuring crossings and switches are in top condition. These insights help: - Prevent Issues: Early detection for preventive maintenance. - Reduce Downtime: Coordinated maintenance activities. - Extend Lifespan: Protecting assets with data-driven decisions. - Enhance Safety: Meeting regulatory standards and improving passenger safety. Let’s revolutionize rail maintenance together! #RailTech #PredictiveMaintenance #RailwayInnovation #OverheadLines #TrackConditions #RailSafety

Winter poses significant challenges for rail operations, from ice and snow accumulation on tracks to freezing temperatures that can affect rail infrastructure and rolling stock. These conditions increase the risk of track obstructions, derailments, and other safety concerns, leading to delays and additional maintenance costs. Predictive maintenance has emerged as a vital tool in winter-proofing rail operations, providing real-time monitoring and proactive maintenance solutions to mitigate these challenges.

Root Cause Analysis (RCA) is a process of problem-solving to identify the root cause or causes of an issue; by mitigating these causes, the problem can be eliminated, or its recurrence can be reduced. This article explores the use of digital twins of a physical railway system to provide an innovative way of conducting RCA alongside expert railway knowledge, an understanding of maintenance practices.

Last week, Lochner's National Transit & Rail Lead Gary Thomas and West Coast Regional Manager Marvin Thomas had the pleasure attending the 2024 American Public Transportation Association (APTA) Rail Conference held in Cleveland, Ohio alongside Praedico's Chief Operating Officer, Lewis Hillman. The conference brought together industry experts, including professionals from rail and paratransit systems, managers, planners, board members, contractors, suppliers, manufacturers, and consultants from all over the country. Attendees participated in technical sessions covering topics such as technology, operations, safety, planning, finance, projects, and workforce development, fostering discussions on the future of public transportation. Lochner has recently partnered with Praedico, a global technology company, to deliver digital twin and asset management solutions for passenger and freight rail clients across North America.

Hi Praedicta!   In case you missed it: We have entered the era of AI.   AI is playing an increasingly important role in our lives. Regardless of the discussions about its possibilities and potential dangers, the trend is irreversible. We strongly believe in the benefits of AI and apply it in ways that enhance those advantages.   At Praedico, AI is also becoming more integral. We have been using algorithms and machine learning for several years, but with the rapid advancement of AI, its applications in our software are growing exponentially. Great examples of this are our predictions for rail wear, grinding, tamping, and overhead lines, as well as production optimization through methods such as polygon selection for track closures and the automatic generation of work plans.   Our philosophy is that AI takes over the time-consuming (and perhaps mundane) tasks, reduces the chances of errors, provides creative solutions, allows employees to fully utilize their talents, and increases job satisfaction, leading to improved performance.   Of course, we notice this ourselves. Our engineering teams even talk about our AI as if it were a persona. So, we thought it might be fitting to give it a name, and after a vote, we chose "Praedicta!" (Kudos to Vahe Jebejian for the name!)   This doesn’t mean that a chatbot or an avatar on steroids suddenly appears in our software. Far from it. Our AI works as an integrated part of our software, like an invisible colleague with immense value.

As we expand our footprint in North America, partnering with Lochner is a strategic move to establish ourselves as leaders in the rail industry. By collaborating with trusted experts who deeply understand the rail market and leveraging Lochner's outstanding relationships and skills, we are poised to effectively support operators with their asset management needs.
