Technology for rail transport - division of company Sklenář s.r.o.

Measuring vehicle wheel profiles and transverse profiles

Measuring is an important part of production and operating activities, bringing a higher quality of products, a better form of control and more effective maintenance.

The MiniProf efficient measuring systems are designed for measuring cross profiles of brake discs, rails, vehicle wheel profiles and their interaction. Top-class software allows you to quickly evaluate the data sets measured, to perform calculations and comparisons, and to export data to other commonly used programs. This is CONTACT measuring!

Measuring vehicle wheel profiles and transverse profiles

Measuring the vehicle wheel profile

The MiniProf Wheel is designed for measuring in operational conditions – it is quick and easy to use, durable and temperature stable (made of titanium). The measured values are among the most accurate of  the available measuring instruments. The accuracy of the measuring instruments is practically constant because the measuring is carried out in a contact method.

Measuring the rail transverse profile

The MiniProf Rail, manufactured with the same precision as the other instruments in this group, is designed for measuring rail wear tendencies.

The measuring records the rail cross profile, comparing it with the model profile and evaluating it. The Miniprof Rail is fixed magnetically to the rail head and, by means of a telescopic rod, it leans on the opposite rail.

  • "The supply of the palletising robot satisfied our expectations. Sklenář, s. r. o., was evaluated as one of our best suppliers with an exemplary approach to solving
    our problems."

    František Peringer, Gypstrend, s.r.o.

  • In 2015, we started a trial operation of a system of the additional lubrication of tram wheel flanges and the rail heads, supplied by Sklenář s.r.o. The HeadLub 90 friction modifier used meets the required parameters, and its applications significantly eliminate undesirable sound pressure and reduce the wear.

  • "Sklenář, s. r. o., was a good choice. Although our
    requirements were rather specific, we were always satisfied
    with the result."

    Ing. Dalibor Krejsa, JSP International, s.r.o.

  • Looking back on a long and very appreciated partnership, we engaged Sklenář s.r.o. for an installation of a special lubrication system for the top of rails. The manufactured parts by Sklenář s.r.o. were made of high quality and the installation work was perfect. Another good cooperation with Sklenář s.r.o.

    Günter Herzig, Managing Director IGRALUB AUSTRIA GmbH

  • "Great job, as always.“

    Michael Smilansky FUJI ROBOTICS, USA

  • "We have been co-operating with Sklenář s. r. o., for more than 10 years, appreciating prompt service, professional handling, high quality and performance.“
