But how to increase the frequency of inspections?
A high-performance fixed weighing system is often required, capable of high-precision measurements at the wheel-rail interface and under fully stable equilibrium conditions.
Unfortunately, it is not easy to find a suitable fixed weighing system near the railway. In addition, the expense of moving the rolling stock to an accurate stationary weighing system at a greater distance can be equally significant.
Therefore, in most cases, a test method like this is inherently expensive and challenging to easily and continuously check the vertical force on each wheel.

How can this be translated into sustainable and optimized solutions?
lVM experimented with this and successfully launched PowerveR, the most innovative, hand-held wheel force measurement system.
It can statically measure the vertical force on each wheel and wheel pair of any vehicle type and determine the balance of the vehicle.
With the POWERVER, force measurements can be easily performed anytime, anywhere, preventing the risk of train derailment and improving its operational dynamics.

Technical Standards
• Testing and commissioning of new, service or modified locomotives in accordance with EN 15654-2.
• Workshop or field maintenance
• Suspension load adjustment
• Reduce the risk of derailment, especially when the locomotive is traveling to a bend in the track and at low speeds
• Verify the traction force distribution on the drive wheels
· Verification of vertical force distribution after installation of new equipment on rolling stock
• Verify the distribution of vertical forces due to uneven wheel diameter wear or suspension failure.
• Verify the vertical force distribution of the freight car
• Derailment investigation
• Perform on-site calibration and verification of weighing-in-motion systems according to EN 15654-3 standard EN 15654-1
