AUTOMATIC TELEMETERING SYSTEM FOR PLOTTING TUNNEL SECTIONS

SISTEMA TELEMETRICO AUTOMATICO PER IL RILIEVO DI SEZIONI DI GALLERIA

The development of new railways, especially designed for high speed, characterized by long sections in tunnel and the computerized management of the traffic of goods exceeding the loading gage, required the availability of an automatic device for plotting the structure gage along the lines. A prototype, fully designed and constructed by the Istituto Sperimentale of Italian State Railways, which has already proved quite satisfactory during the tests of some tunnels on the new line between Rome and Florence is described. Owing to this, Italian Railways have undertaken the construction in a small series of a motor truck for telemetric plottings, in which some improvements have been introduced.
