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. View some of the UPR
screens.
Chart Manager
The primary component of the Wheel Shop Management System that is used to track
production in a wheel shop is the Chart Manager.

The Bearing Tracking
option adds bearing serial number and mounting information to
your wheelset.
The Incoming
Inspection Station
allows the tread lathe operator to print a barcode label for the axle and the
wheels. This barcode will then be used for bearing tracking and shipping
information. This station also collects quality data for the tread lathe,
such as reject quantities and reasons for rejection. The Axle
Tracking System
allows the operator to scan the axle barcode on an axle taken out of
inventory and select the end customer to which the axle will be shipped when
processing is complete. This data is then uploaded to the PC database to
provide reports to the axle manufacturer. Car
Assembly Tracking
incorporates the capability to track
wheelset assemblies through the car assembly stage.
