In yet another boost to digital initiatives and initiation of advanced technology in various fields, WR has commissioned an Artificial Intelligence (AI) based Loco Inspection System at Trip Shed, Bandra Terminus. This new system will go a long way in the increasing efficiency as well as enhancing the repairs & maintenance works, thereby, improving loco outage. This major feat has been made possible under the visionary leadership, able guidance and energetic motivation of Shri Alok Kansal – General Manager of Western Railway.

According to a press release issued by Shri Sumit Thakur – Chief Public Relations Officer of Western Railway, this new system has been put into service at Trip Shed, Bandra Terminus from 18^th December, 2021. The system is capable of carrying Inspection of the sides, underframe and roof. It will be able to measure axle box temperatures, detect loose parts, hanging parts, wheel profile, foreign particles, carbon strip defects, broken roof insulators, brake block thickness, cattle guard defects, primary spring cracks, etc. and raise alarms for proper intervention.

Shri Thakur further stated that this technology utilises hardware like 3D Camera, 2D Camera, LIDARs, Thermal Camera, Edge Processors, Access Points, Sliding Arms, etc. The speed of the system is 1m/min and the time taken to inspect one loco on these parameters is 20 mins as against 3 hrs taken in manual mode.
