RSR180, FAdC®

The Bordeaux tramway was the first French tram system equipped with a Frauscher axle counting system, benefitting from the innovative management methods like Counting Head Control.

The D line of the Bordeaux tramway is a tram line which is around 10 kilometres long. A significant challenge of D line is both the availability and reliability of the signals that allow rolling stock to move without incident.

The implementation of the Frauscher Advanced Counter FAdC® and Frauscher Wheel Sensor RSR180 support the innovative concept of Counting Head Control. The patented management method can be implemented without additional hardware and compensates counting errors which are common in urban areas.

Innovative management methods

Counting Head Control CHC is a patented concept by Frauscher which supports the availability of operations.

Patented rail claw

FAdC® at Vhodnaya Station

ArcelorMittal is responsible for the operation of a dedicated industrial railway infrastructure located in Temirtau, Kazakhstan. At Vhodnaya station, an essential shunting yard, various goods and materials, such as polyester, zinc, aluminium, sinter, iron ore, and coke-chemical products, are loaded and unloaded. The station's robust infrastructure features 64 switching points and 68 signals, necessitating the use of a high-performing train detection system to ensure the safe and efficient management of traffic flow.

Renewal signalling FAdC® and RSR123

Banedanmark, the Danish railway infrastructure owner, started replacing the existing signalling system in the Eastern region of Denmark in 2009 to implement the newest proven signalling technology, based on standard industrial hardware components and redundant system configurations. Uniform system interfaces should reduce signalling failures to provide a better reliability and punctuality of the entire network. For this project, Frauscher delivered the Frauscher Advanced Counter FAdC® and the Frauscher Wheel Sensor RSR123.
