KOREC announces GEDO CE Track Measuring Device
Approved by Network Rail

KOREC is delighted to announce that the GEDO CE Track Measuring Device (TMD) has recently been approved for use by Network Rail, allowing KOREC to offer a highly productive and user-friendly rail measuring solution.
The TMD incorporates sensors for very precise measurement of the distance between gauge and cant (the two rail lines and super-elevation between them). A single prism can be mounted on either side of the TMD and then tracked by one of the Trimble S-Series Robotic Total Stations allowing the geometry of one railroad (left line, right line and centre line) to be recorded in one pass to the highest accuracy.
The system offers both ‘stop-and-go’ and ‘kinematic’ measuring options. All the data is collected on-board a standard Trimble TSC2 control unit, offering a completely cable-free solution. The TMD takes its power from the same standard batteries that power the Trimble S-Series Robotic Total Stations.

The system is scalable offering software for preparing alignment and tamping files as well as real-time comparisons with design geometry in the field. Robust, compact and light-weight, the TMD is easily manoeuvrable and has been manufactured to the highest standards.

Immediate sales in the UK and Ireland, including to Network Rail, have underlined a receptive market for a system that combines user friendly functionality, Trimble’s proven hardware and KOREC’s technical expertise and training.
