HRS - High Resolution Surface

HRS (High-Resolution Surface) is a high-performance track imaging system designed for the detailed inspection of railway surfaces.

Equipped with high-definition line-scan cameras, it captures submillimeter images at high speed, making it ideal for the analysis of:

Rails
Fishplates
Fasteners
Sleepers
Ballast
Other track components.

The system is fully adaptable and can be mounted on virtually any railway or inspection vehicle. Thanks to its adjustable orientation and proprietary lighting and synchronization architecture, HRS ensures optimal image acquisition even at full operating speed, with microsecond-level timing accuracy.

Performances

Resolution	Up to 0,05 mm/px
Image Type	Color (RGB) or Mono
Max Speed	Up to max operational speed
Target Distance	Up to 1000 mm
Operating Temperature	-20°C / + 50°C
Humidity	15 to 85%
Lighting Power	100.000 Lux
Voltage	24 VDC or 220-110 VAC

AI-Enhanced Inspection

Proprietary software allows data to be collected and analyzed either directly from the vehicle’s control cabin or remotely from a separate location.

Integrated artificial intelligence empowers the HRS system to autonomously detect and assess:

Cracks and surface defects;
Presence and alignment of components;
Deformations and wear;
Structural integrity indicators.
