The fully electronic control and track-in-track motion of multi axle systems is one of our core competences. The track-in-track motion does not only apply to the control of wheel based vehicles but also to crawler systems: We demonstrated this on a 75 m long and 750 t heavy machine resting on 5 crawlers already in 2014. For this machine we prepared the mathematics, tested the algorihms on a scale model and transferred it successfully to the target machine.
Another major use are multi combination vehicles running on a single track with all axles electronically controlled and designed to Functional Safety performance level PLd. This technology is used since 2016 for rubber tired tunnel supply „trains“ running track-in-track on a „virtual rail“ with up to 18 axles all electronically controlled. This technology today is licensed by
VirtuRail GmbH.
Our steer-by-wire competence also covers the track-in-track movement of e.g. agricultural trailers. We look forward to take your challenges!
