AI Technical Summary
The current method of measuring the straightness of rail joints relies on manual operation, which has problems such as large errors and low efficiency, making it difficult to achieve automated and efficient online measurement.
The device consists of a fixed frame, a longitudinal clamping cylinder, a lateral moving cylinder, and a laser rangefinder. The longitudinal clamping cylinder fixes the steel rail, and the lateral moving cylinder drives the laser rangefinder to mount the frame. Six measuring heads enable multi-point measurement, ensuring high accuracy and stability.
It enables automatic, efficient, and accurate online measurement of the straightness of rail joints, reduces human error, improves measurement accuracy and efficiency, and is adaptable to the fixing and measurement of different types of rails.
