The Wheel Shop Management Suite (WSMS) utilizes the latest technology in data collection
hardware. The WSMS uses a combination of industrial computers, hand-held barcode scanners and
wireless barcode scanners to simplify the data collection process and speed production.
Hand-held computers with integrated barcode scanners are used for collecting data in remote
locations to accurately transfer information to the WSMS.
Wheel Press Recording System
The Automated Wheel Press Recorder (WPR) is a computerized
system for recording pressure while mounting train wheels allowing the operator
to know immediately if wheels are misfits. The WPR is the cornerstone product of our Wheel Shop
Management System.
Universal Press Recording System
The Universal Press Recorder (UPR) is a computerized system
for recording pressure while mounting axle assemblies or train wheels, axles, gears, and discs. The
UPR was developed to meet the needs of locomotive wheel shops and transit wheel shops.
The UPR can record mounting diagrams for wheels, bearings, gears, gear boxes, discs and anything else
you put on an axle that produces a pressure chart. The UPR includes a Bearing Spike Control function.
Shop Manager
The primary component of the Wheel Shop Management Suite that is used to track production in a wheel
shop is the Shop Manager.
