Trolley and handheld measuring systems from Goldschmidt enable flexible and precise inspection of rails and track infrastructure directly in the field. They are specially designed for mobile applications and are ideal for targeted individual inspections, detailed analyses and use in hard-to-reach or particularly complex sections of track.
The systems cover a wide range of measurement and testing tasks – from detecting rail defects using ultrasonic or eddy current testing, through measuring track geometry and rail profiles, to analysing turnouts and clearance profiles. They enable a comprehensive condition assessment of individual track sections and critical infrastructure points.
Thanks to their compact design, ease of use and high measurement accuracy, inspections can be carried out efficiently and independently of large measurement vehicles. The systems provide immediately available measurement results and support rapid decision-making during operational use.
As part of a scalable inspection solution, the trolleys and handheld measuring devices can be seamlessly integrated into existing maintenance processes and effectively combined with vehicle-mounted systems. They complement automated measuring systems and enable a needs-based, flexible inspection strategy across all levels.
