RAMOS-CASTANEDA, Kessia Carolina; PANESSO-NARVAEZ, Jhon Fredy; GIL-PELAEZ, Jhon Jairo y CLAROS-LAMUS, Reynaldo. Design of a measurement equipment of the unevenness in a railway line. Iteckne [online]. 2015, vol.12, n.2, pp.168-176. ISSN 1692-1798.
This article presents the design of a mechatronic unevenness measurement equipment on a railway line, consisting of three phase. The first one is a mechanical system that allows you to go on the railways, for which develops a dynamic analysis and structural modeling using the finite element technique and the Solid- Works software. The second is a data acquisition system comprising all the device's electronic design, the selection of accelerometers suitable for the application and use of a microcontroller of the Microchip family for receiving and processing information from sensors. The last one is the visualization stage, in which an LCD is used to display data locally and through an XBee module is sent to a remote control point in order to monitor via an interface made in LabVIEW. This system aims to improve and optimize the detection of unevenness, creating easy viewing in low or no visibility, reduce staff involved in making manual measurements and provide timely information.
