Temperature Sensor
RMDs solution consists of temperature sensitive bolts from Strainlabs in conjunction with PMU sensors, which send the data to RMDs system. wThere it is analyzed and transformed into meaningful information that can be vizualized in any interface, for example the MyTrain app.
The combined technology analyzing temperature data in real-time, provides efficient protection from derailments caused by thermal overload in the wheel axle box. The smart bolts detect the increased temperature in thermally overloaded wheel axle boxes, while the PMU registers changed vibrations in them – either immediately when a derailment occurs, minimizing the infrastructure damage, and in the best case, before the derailment even occurs.
Connected IoT Bolts
The smart bolts are manufactered by the Swedish company Strainlabs, which entered into a partnership agreement with Railway Metrics and Dynamics during 2024. The connected bolts provied yet another dimension of information that is seamlessly integrated within our own proprietary system solution.

Rear-view Camera
Our rear-view camera increases safety, streamlines train shunting and enhances productivity. It is being used by several operators and is thoroughly tested in all weather conditions.
Performance Monitoring Unit
The PMU is a state of the art sensor for digitalizing railways. It is an extremely competent unit, capable of detecting and recognizing almost every anomaly in railway infrastructure and rolling assets.
Brake sensor
This sensor is used to continuously monitor that the train’s braking system is correctly pressurized and free from leaks.
