Switch Point Position Sensor

Autonomous Track Switch Monitoring System (ATSMS)

Here at Avante, we believe Rail Safety is of the highest importance. That’s why we have developed a solution which will bring your Rail System peace-of-mind at any Switch Point. Avante’s Switch Point Position Sensor provides our clients with a way to view the current status of a Rail Switch. We utilize the best technology in order to provide our clients with a solution that is Safe, Efficient, and Reliable.

Real-Time Autonomous Track Geometry Measurement System (ATGMS)

Track failures or induced derailments represent approximately 50% of the overall accidents. Majority of the track integrity issues are related to the track geometry or gauge distortion while the remaining are due alignment, buckled track, and sub-soil erosion. AVANTE’s ATGMS (Autonomous Rail Track Geometry Measurement System) provides a way to point out existing defects along the rail line in real-time. AVANTE ATGMS is lightweight and directly mounted on the locomotive for daily direct track integrity monitoring.

PTC System (Positive Train Control System)

The foundation of the European Train Control System (ETCS) and Positive Train Control (PTC) System is real-time location of all trains on the track and information systems to provide direct commands to the signaling networks and the onboard PTC computer on each train.

Grade Crossing and Blind Spot Visibility System

Most of the grade crossing collisions may be prevented if visibility of accidental stationary obstructions is available to the oncoming train. For the vehicles and pedestrians that may be impatient or unaware of the oncoming train proximity, visibility and warning to them may also avoid many of the accidents.

Wireless and Passive IP-Balise

AVANTE has developed a wireless and passive IP-Balise system that is cost-effective for new or existing rail networks. The fact that the location device (IP-Balise) is passive and wireless means it can be installed anywhere anytime.
