Sensor innovation to leap forward the mobility of people and goods
13. November 2025
ASC offers innovative sensor solutions tailored to the needs of the world’s railway systems. Its proven capacitive accelerometers, gyroscopes and IMUs are leveraged in the continuous monitoring of bridges, tunnels, track geometry and other critical infrastructure. The robust, configurable sensors are used in the development, testing and certification of trains and rolling stock as well as during active service.
For example, bogies on high-speed trains – which are exposed to enormous loads – are monitored in real time through extremely robust and stable acceleration sensors by ASC. Not only does this ensure the running characteristics of railway vehicles, it also helps detect maintenance and repair needs early to proactively maintain rail vehicles and infrastructure assets.
The ASC RAIL series consists of analog accelerometers and gyroscopes qualified in accordance with EN 50155 and other relevant railway norms. This saves operators individual documentation effort, time and budget. These tested components can now be leveraged to assemble customized sensor systems that comply with applicable national and international standards. Which significantly facilitates the expansion of efficient railway systems around the globe.
