GR Technologies Middle East, the regional practice of Grupo Revenga, a global developer and manufacturer of railway systems, integrated communications solutions, information technologies, and electronic security, will be present at Middle East Rail 2016, in Dubai, on March 8 and 9. At the event, Revenga will showcase its upgraded railway integrated solutions for increased control and efficiency: RailXcan and MetroEngine.

RAILXCAN, an integrated and real time rolling stock condition monitoring wayside platform, collects the information regarding the train elements that could affect normal service operation.

The System is very comprehensive, and enables the integration of the following inspection systems into a single integrated solution: Dragging Equipment Checking System (DECS), Hot Axle Bearing Detector, Clearance Gauge Checking System, Pantograph Checking System, Wheel impact load detector/Flat Wheel Detector and Weigh in Motion, Wheel Measurement system, VMS (Video Monitoring system) and Others such as RHTM, ABD, SFD, or OFD.

On the other hand, METROENGINE, GRT´s integrated mass transit communications and control platform that, as increasingly required by operators around the world, includes the entire value chain in a large mass transit deployment: design and adaptation of the platform to the specific needs of any given operator, engineering, manufacturing, implementation, roll out and maintenance. The system includes three distinctive layers: services to the final user (interphone, public address, and information systems), internal operator systems (telephony, video surveillance, access control and station control systems), and telecommunication networks (fix ed network, radio network and ground-train network).

Finally, all systems and services included in Metro Engine are managed from a Central Control Station as well as from other secondary control stations according to the needs of each operator.

“Our solutions for high speed, metro, tramway and conventional railway provide the quality, reliability and forward thinking technology sought after by operators around the World. Our first-hand experience in some of the most complex railway projects around the world is telling us that the integration of IT and telecommunication systems enables a better, more efficient management of assets and people” said Arturo Revenga, CEO of Grupo Revenga. “Unifying the control of all of the inspection systems in place in a given location or network or integrating under a single platform all of a mass transit network´s communications and control systems are objectives of a growing number of operators. MetroEngine and RailXcan respond to this demand, which is especially visible in the tech-oriented Middle East Railway community,” concluded Mr. Revenga.
