R-Series

Analogue track gauge and cant measuring devices

The R-Series devices are the proven analogue mechanical measuring devices for track building and maintenance. The different models reliably and precisely measure the common track parameters on Vignoles and grooved rails.

Product advice
Precise measurements with fine adjustment Precise measurements with fine adjustment
Separable design Separable design

Approved by Deutsche Bahn (DB).

Individual configuration
The additional options for measuring and recording other various track parameters enable a customized expansion of the basic model. Thus, it is possible to make different measurement tasks even more efficient with little effort for the user.

The R-Series devices
There are four basic models available which differ acc. to their measured parameters.
