Rail and transit network inspections
Ensure railway network safety and punctuality with dedicated rail and transit inspection solutions.

Highly precise profile measurement for railway maintenance
Discover dedicated profile measurement solutions for rail and transit network inspections.
Delivering efficient and safe public transport relies on well-maintained infrastructure. Hexagon provides rail and transit network maintenance companies with dedicated solutions for rail profile measurement, switch profile measurement and track geometry measurement.
Overview
Effective maintenance schedules are critical to the running of our rail and transit networks. Ensuring that maintenance teams have the right equipment is essential to keeping tracks in optimal condition and keeping trains running to timetables.
Hexagon’s non-contact profile measurement devices meet the demands of the railway industry for predictive maintenance with a reproducible and simple measurement method. From rails and switches to wheels and brakes, we have the right solution for any measurement task.
Our handheld rail and transit inspection solutions address rail profile, switch profile and track geometry measurements on the network quickly and accurately. Non-contact measurement operation ensures that the results are user-independent, giving a precise picture of the track condition, regardless of the shift.

We’re climbing the automation curve
Our transition to Intelligent automation is accelerating. Ultimately, our innovations will give rise to new technologies and applications - many of which we’ve yet to imagine. Today, every Hexagon solution is mapped and tagged according to its level of automation, so customers can clearly track our progress towards the freedom of autonomy.
-
Level 0/None:
Human performs all tasks, no data being used
-
Level 1/Human-assisted:
Human is in charge of performing tasks but certain functions are automated to simplify control
-
Level 2/Partial:
Some tasks are automated so that operation can be autonomous for short periods (or within specific circumstances)
-
Level 3/Conditional:
Autonomous operation is possible within certain bounds, but human intervention may be necessary at short notice
-
Level 4/High:
Designed to complete required tasks autonomously, but may require human intervention if circumstances change beyond specific bounds
-
Level 5/Full:
Control tasks automated under all conditions, but human may request to take over; can complete all expected tasks without human intervention
