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!
PJM has pioneered the digital rail freight transport. Crucial information in real-time on rail freight wagons and automated processes result in higher efficiency, time-saving and cost-savings. Hence, the rail freight cargo gets more attractive. The technology behind this is the patented WaggonTracker-system.
International customers like SBB Cargo and Mercitalia appreciate the benefits of this overall digital system. Austrian customers such as Lenzing AG count on intelligent freight cars, too. More than 2.000 WaggonTracker-systems have been installed worldwide.
More information on the WaggonTracker-system is provided here.
We'll present novelties and innovations at the trade show in Munich!
Our highlights:
intelligent rail freight transport, the innovation "automated brake tests" in cooperation with SBB Cargo, our load monitoring system, our wide range of overall railway solutions and our expertise as one-stop-provider in the field of vehicle approval.
PJM goes TransportLogistic:
4th.-7th of June 2019
Halle B6, Stand 104.
Mercitalia upgraded 240 Shimmns Coil Transport Wagons with the monitoring system WaggonTracker ADV
The multi-functional system provides comprehensive information in a very clear and well-arranged way:
PJM installed the intelligent monitoring system on the wagons of the latest generation ex works. 200 wagons are ready to go for Mercitalia, another 40 will be delivered in March.
PJM on the 9th VPI Symposium in Hamburg in January 2019
On the VDI’s first meeting of the year, the automation of rail freight transport and telematics were in the limelight. Our CEOs Martin Joch and Günter Petschnig presented the patent-registered WaggonTracker which perfectly combines automation and digitalisation. This system has been an established and proven technology for more than one year. The best practise of automated brake test for SBB Cargo clearly shows the efficiency and advantages in contrast to conventional, manual brake tests.
About 300 members and guests discussed new issues and developments. VPI is going to break new grounds by founding VPI European Rail Service GmbH (VERS). Further information on: https://www.vpihamburg.de/news/pm-symposium-2019
At the international trade fair InnoTrans in Berlin, PJM presented novelties of its main business fields:
More than 150.000 people from 149 countries visited the international trade show of mobility in Berlin, which is one of the leading international trade fairs.
Mercitalia Rail joins the innovative project
Mercitalia Rail joined the cooperation with Rail Cargo Group and SBB Cargo in spring 2018. The partners signed a Memorandum of Understanding on the projects of automatic brake tests and direct communication from freight wagon to the staff.
The main aim of the Austrian, Swiss and Italian cargo partners is to develop a new communication standard and to implement various intelligent European user cases.
First pilot train in operation since August 2017
In May 2017, SBBC, RCG and PJM communicated to cooperate. Now, the first pilot train has been in operation since August 2017. The first train started in Switzerland, the Austrian train started in August 2018.
