The German special interest magazine "bahn manager" regularly interviews experts of railway business. On the Alpine Rail Forum in Vienna, Günter Petschnig gave an insight into the innovative project on automated brake tests (in German language).
The Austrian company innofreight is specialised on innovative haulage and logistic systems. Recently, PJM performed comprehensive impact tests for the new wagon type "Innowaggon". With various loads and by changing speed levels, the vehicle design is tested to meet the requirements for shunting operations. innofreight has provided a video on the testing procedure.
Lenzing AG, a global player based in Austria, decided to upgrade further 106 wagons with an automated load monitoring system provided by the WaggonTracker-platform. Its benefits are manifold: The load is monitored during the loading process and thus ensures an optimum load capacity. This results in cost-savings and an increase of efficiency and safety by preventing overload.

2019 was both exiting and succesful! Our teams realised projects on four continents. Our measurement experts performed tests for passenger trains, special vehicles and rail freight trains. In terms of digitalisation of rail freight transport, PJM keeps innovations leading: More than 2.300 WaggonTracker-systems have been in operation so far (By the way: In Septemer, the WaggonTracker-plattform was awarded the innovation prize FFA).
2019 was a big success for us. However, we have great plans for next year, too. We have started to work on many things so that we can keep informing you on innvations and novelties. What do we work on? Just some little hints: We always work to improve "the railway system" and hence provide concrete customer's benefits. Martin Joch and Günter Petschnig use to say: "We do know exactly the needs of vehicle manufacturers, railway companies, fleet operators and wagon keepers. We have the know-how and the technologies to provide cutting-edge advantages." We are looking forward to 2020!
We cordially wish Merry Christmas, happy holidays and a great 2020!
The German special interest magazine ETR reports on the vehicle tests in Hyderabad / India. At beginning of the project, PJM performed a hardware in the loop simulation which clearly minimises the customers project risk. PJM is the only supplier worldwide providing a hardware in the loop simulation. Learn more in the article (in German language).
