Track Geometry
Our advanced measurement systems support detailed track alignment assessment, vertical and horizontal profile recording, platform interface measurement, and wheel profile analysis. Designed for use by geometry engineers and survey teams across all railway infrastructure types.
Product Reference
Product Feature Comparison Matrix
This table is a Product Feature Comparison Matrix for our line of Track Geometry Measurement Trolleys — inspection devices pushed along railway tracks to record key track health data. It provides a clear overview of which measurement parameters each trolley captures, helping engineers select the right instrument for their specific inspection requirements. This guide is not intended to replace the expert advice of our Technical Team.
Product Range
BANCE Track & Switch Recording Trolley
Instrumented recording trolley for geometry measurement on plain line and S&C.
Push-along recording trolley with integrated sensor suite for geometry data capture across plain line and switches and crossings. Designed for use in engineering possessions and during detailed inspection programmes.
BANCE Platform Geometry
Measurement systems for platform edge position, height, and gauge assessment.
Precision instrumentation for recording platform face position relative to the running rail, platform height, and gap dimensions. Used for new build verification, condition assessment, and compliance with passenger interface standards.
BANCE Versine Measurement
General-purpose versine measurement tools for track curvature and alignment recording.
Comprehensive range of versine measurement equipment supporting multiple chord lengths and recording methods. Suitable for routine maintenance inspection, post-tamping verification, and geometry data collection on all track types.
BANCE Versine Measurement – Hallade Handles
Traditional Hallade chord-based versine measurement equipment for horizontal alignment.
Classic Hallade method versine handles and chord strings for manual horizontal alignment assessment on plain line and curved track. Widely used across global railway networks for routine inspection and re-alignment calculations.
BANCE Versine Measurement – Wuppertal Method
Wuppertal method versine recording equipment for track alignment analysis.
Implements the Wuppertal chord offset method for recording and analysing horizontal track alignment. Provides improved sensitivity to short-wavelength alignment defects compared to standard Hallade methods.
BANCE Wheel Profile – Portable Laser Measurement
Handheld laser measurement system for rapid wheel profile assessment at depot or lineside.
Portable laser-based wheel profile scanner providing fast, accurate measurement of flange height, flange thickness, and tread wear against condemning limits. Results are displayed immediately and stored for fleet condition trend analysis.
BANCE Wheel Profile – In Track Measurement System
Automated in-track system for continuous wheel profile measurement of passing vehicles.
Fixed trackside installation using laser or contact sensors to capture wheel profile data on every passing axle without stopping vehicles. Feeds directly into fleet maintenance management systems to identify wheels approaching condemning limits and prioritise maintenance interventions.
