Rail Industry

Delivering solutions in manufacturing, engineering & digital

Rail Industry

The Rail industry is fast growing with tremendous opportunities for innovation and improvement. TAAL Tech is fortunate to have worked with a number of projects in this sector so as to have gained experience, and in turn the ability to contribute, across various domains in this space. We see digital technologies playing a key role in the evolution of the rail sector going forward; particularly in terms of the ability of these technologies to integrate the design, operation and maintenance phases. Benefits will accrue across the entire spectrum of rail services. Improved control systems coupled with better signalling will allow for denser and safer rail traffic movement, improved scheduling, and, in turn, better real time passenger information. Similarly, improved data acquisition and analysis will allow for better predictive maintenance which once again will translate into improved scheduling and passenger information.

Digitization

Like other domains the rail industry is saddled with legacy data which, when thoughtfully digitized, can yield significant rewards in terms of improved operations and maintenance. Our experts have the experience and the expertise to conceptualize and lead such a digitization effort making sure that relevant data is captured in the system and that the appropriate analytical as well as visualization tools are employed to use the data effectively.
