The TSC trolley measures track geometry. The measurement
results include values of track gauge, cant, horizontal and vertical irregularities along with the calculated gradient and twist parameters.

Back to the listTRACKSCAN COMPACT
The TRACKSCAN COMPACT (TSC) trolley measures track geometry. The measurement results include values of track gauge, cant, horizontal and vertical irregularities along with the calculated gradient and twist parameters. Thanks to its user-friendly and modular design the trolley can be transported by one person and fixed on a track in less than 5 minutes.
The device is operated with an Android application on a tablet, on which all measurement data is displayed immediately. Not only the measured data but also the covered distance, the GPS position and the visual inspection of the track condition are recorded by the GOLDSCHMIDT APP. The measurement data is uploaded directly to our database solution DARI® so the data can be analysed and accessed globally.
The trolley is supplied with the GeoTEC System software (for PCs) enabling, among other things, the graphic presentation and comparison of measurement results as well as the printing of measurement reports or calculating typical track quality factors. Measurement results are also available in the tabular form containing track defect locations. Measurement data can be exported in MS Word, MS Excel and PDF formats.
