Robotics

We develop and deploy robotic systems to reduce costs, save time, minimize human error, and eliminate hazardous tasks

A promising new area of the Telematika's activities is the development, large-scale production, installation, and maintenance of robotic systems.

By combining our expertise in transport automation and robotics, we create fully autonomous mechanisms for railway maintenance and infrastructure support. Robotic technologies reduce the number of hazardous and routine operations and reduce time intensive processes carried out by humans.

Directions:

Robotized filling and draining of railway tank cars

Robotic process automation for sorting freight

Robotic process automation for unloading bulk materials

Control over the technological condition of rails and railroad switches

Maintaining rotary
car dumpers

Robotic rehabilitation and habilitation of patients

Robotic process automation for servicing freight rolling stock (decoupling/coupling of railcars, brake release, connecting air sleeves, and monitoring the condition of railcars)

Commercial

implementation of the Telematika's first robot decoupler

By 2030,

Russia will increase the level of robotization in the country from the current 7,200 robots to 95,000

151 robots

per 10,000 citizens is the average robotization factor

Robotic filling of tank cars

Technological process

Moving the tank car into the fill zone along the rails. The accuracy of placing the tank car should be +/-0.5 meters. The filler ports must be pre-opened
The system can perform the required operations while in motion, adapting to the speed of the moving train
Upon receiving a signal from the filling device, the robot moves to the filled tank car

The robot moves to the first tank car and uses computer vision to locate the filling port. Verifying the cap is open
The filling device is inserted into the tank car's filling port using an automatic docking system
Repeating the operation until all the tank cars are filled

Robotic bogies for the arrangement of diagnostic equipment

Implementing robotic bogies for diagnostic equipment automates rail track and switch inspection operations

Functionality:

Autonomous placement according to a provided program considering data from the operating conditions
Positioning of robotic bogies in relation to the digital model of the station layout on the basis of information concerning the passage of transponders for counting axles from Module 10 of the Digital Railway Station and computer vision technology
Integration with Module 22 of the Digital Railway Station for automatic management of track maintenance and repair, including data transfer of test results
