The Railster ensures safe access to real-time data, so that railway operators can perform data analytics and confirm predictive diagnostics in the cloud via rule-based or machine-learning alerts. The Railster is updatable over the air and compatible with major train manufacturers, diesel engine brands and sub-component manufacturers such as doors, HVAC, converters and juridical recorders.

The Railster and Railnova’s rule engine, a software component on the Railster, enable operators to create predictive rules and alerts to detect events and abnormalities in real time. On Railfleet operators can view and analyse those events, and even provide diagnostics tips to the hotline and teams on the ground so breakdowns can be explained and prevented.

The multi-company Railfleet software fills the gap between rolling stock data and maintenance management systems. Operators, maintainers and lessors can efficiently manage their mixed fleets online, turn asset data into predictive alerts and condition-based maintenance orders, and automate ECM day-to-day management.
