Discover how HBK helps railway operators and infrastructure owners improve safety, reliability, and operational efficiency. By combining precise measurement technologies, advanced sensors, and intelligent analytics, we turn complex data into actionable insights that support smarter maintenance, extend asset life, and reduce lifecycle costs.
From real-time train monitoring to reliability engineering and predictive maintenance, HBK provides integrated measurement and monitoring solutions across the railway lifecycle.
Our portfolio includes ARGOS® Wayside Systems for monitoring train and wheel conditions, with capabilities such as Weigh-in-Motion (WIM), Wheel Impact Load Detection (WILD), Out-of-Roundness (OOR), and Running Behaviour Measurement (RBM/THD) for curves and tangent track.
The ARGOS® newLight extension integrates fibre-optic (FBG) sensing technology into the ARGOS ecosystem, enhancing measurement capabilities while simplifying installation. HBK also provides pantograph monitoring solutions to help assess pantograph behaviour and support overhead line system performance.
Beyond measurement, solutions such as ReliaSoft® for reliability engineering and HBK Monitor360 for data visualisation and actionable insights help teams better understand asset condition, identify potential issues, and make more informed maintenance decisions.
Reliable decisions start with reliable data. By connecting measurement, monitoring, and analytics, HBK helps railway organisations move beyond data collection towards a clearer understanding of asset performance.
The result: better-informed maintenance strategies, improved fleet and infrastructure performance, longer asset life, and greater control over lifecycle costs.
