Analysis of the Measuring Model of Auto-Evaluation System of Railway Coupler

Article Preview

Abstract:

Due to the complex structure of railway coupler, the evaluation of coupler is always a difficult task for railway carriage inspection at present. Combining structural light scanning technology with movement mechanism, a coupler auto-evaluation system has been designed and realized. This paper emphasizes on analyzing the measuring model of the coupler evaluation system, and introducing the point cloud data processes for getting evaluation items. The system is more flexible and efficient than traditional detection method of coupler, and can meet the requirements of auto-evaluation items of coupler.
