Rail/Transport
Some of our successfully implemented projects in the rail and transportation sector:
Railroad company CH
Gravitational natural hazards are an important issue for the CJ.
Landslides, rockfalls, falling rocks, debris flows and avalanches can not only paralyze routes for long periods of time, but also pose a risk to life and limb.
The AarteLink® solution helps to ensure that passengers and goods can be transported safely from A to B.
The aim of AarteLink® in this application is to stop trains in good time so that they do not run into a natural hazard event and derail.
CJ, Chemin de Fer du Jura Ligne 236 Glovelier – La Chaux-de-fonds Glovelier – Pré-Petitjean
AarteLink® and additional components.
Changes in position, for example of safety nets or supports, as well as vibrations are reported.
Events are also recorded using a ripcord.
Sensors supply the data to the operations center.
However, they can also be sent to the signal box, the locomotive or a specialist’s smartphone.
Railroad company FR
Gravitational natural hazards are a major issue for the SNCF.
Landslides, rockfalls, falling rocks and debris flows can not only paralyze lines for long periods of time, but also pose a danger to life and limb and animals.
AarteLink® helps to ensure that passengers and goods can be transported safely from A to B.
In close cooperation between SNCF and Aartesys, a cost-effective solution has been found to minimize the risks: With AarteLink® we enable trains to be stopped in good time so that they do not run into a natural hazard event and derail.

Railroad company CH
Gravitational natural hazards are a major issue for SBB.
Landslides, rockfalls, falling rocks, debris flows and avalanches can not only paralyze routes for long periods of time, but also pose a risk to life and limb.
In order to transport passengers safely from A to B, even through zones of increased danger, the main option to date has been a so-called full shoring, i.e. a tunnel, for example.
However, this is not always possible and is usually very expensive.
In close cooperation with Aartesys, SBB has now found a cost-effective solution to minimize the risks: AarteLink®.
The aim of AarteLink® in this application is to stop trains in good time so that they do not run into a natural hazard event and derail.
SBB line Bern-Freiburg Flamatt (over 3 km) Canton of Fribourg, Canton of Bern
AarteLink® and additional components.
Changes in position, for example of safety nets or supports, as well as vibrations are reported.
Events are also recorded using a ripcord.
Sensors supply the data to the operations control center (train control unit ZKE).
However, they could also be sent to the signal box, the locomotive or a specialist’s smartphone.
