Wayside Inspection System
Pantograph Defect Inspection
Changes in the pantograph’s three-axis posture (roll, pitch, yaw), wear or cracking of the contact strip, and damage to the guide horn can lead to serious issues such as poor current collection, equipment damage, or wire separation. Mechanical shocks during high-speed operation can rapidly accelerate such defects. The 2iSYS wayside inspection system automatically detects structural abnormalities in pantographs through high-speed image analysis and 3D posture estimation technology.

Roof Equipment Inspection
The roof of the train houses high-voltage equipment such as circuit breakers, insulators, and isolating devices. Damage to these components may cause arcing, fire, or power supply failure. External factors such as lightning strikes, vibration, and prolonged operation are major causes of failure.2iSYS uses high-resolution cameras and AI analysis to precisely diagnose damage to roof-mounted components.

Vehicle Side and Underbody Enclosure Inspection
Side Equipment Inspection
The sides of the train include components such as doors, covers, and electrical enclosures, whose damage or detachment can cause operational interruptions or safety hazards. If handles or covers become detached during operation, there is a high risk of contact with station structures or other trains. The system captures real-time side images as the train passes and uses AI to automatically detect and locate damage.

Underbody Equipment Inspection
The underbody houses key safety systems such as brakes, drive units, and air pipelines. Damage to these components can cause brake failure, falling parts, or derailments. Loose bolts and broken panels are particularly difficult to detect without regular inspections. 2iSYS automatically captures and analyzes the entire underframe structure from the wayside, proactively identifying hidden defects.

Axle Temperature and Vibration Monitoring
Wheel overheating indicates bearing failure or braking system issues, while abnormal vibration often signals early-stage defects such as wheel cracks, spalling, or eccentric wear. If left undetected, these problems can escalate into axle fractures or derailments. 2iSYS’s stationary sensors measure wheel temperature and vibration with thermal imaging and accelerometers, providing real-time alerts.
