A modular in-motion rail scale and train monitoring system for railcar weighing, wheel condition diagnostics, load distribution, vehicle identification, and customer IT integration.
The Walz In-Motion Rail Scale & Train Monitoring System, powered by Qlar, combines high-precision rail weighing, wheel-condition diagnostics, and wayside intelligence in one modular platform. It is built for rail operators, industrial terminals, mines, steel producers, bulk loading operations, and maintenance teams that need more than a one-time weight ticket.
Instead of forcing every site into a single scale layout, the system can be configured around the job: legal-for-trade railway track scale operation, high-speed diagnostic weighing, wheel impact load detection, periodic out-of-roundness analysis, automatic vehicle identification, environmental monitoring, and customer IT integration.
Weigh
Capture train, railcar, axle, wheel, and load-distribution data while rail traffic continues moving through the weighing zone.
Diagnose
Use WILD, ORW, and POR modules to identify wheel flats, force peaks, out-of-roundness, and load imbalance before they become safety or infrastructure problems.
Integrate
Connect measurements with RFID, OCR, REST/customer IT interfaces, environmental data, and reporting workflows.
For heavy rail, plant rail, and terminal rail environments, the risk is rarely a single missing number. The real risk is not knowing when a wagon is overloaded, when a wheel defect is repeatedly striking the rail, when a loading process is drifting out of tolerance, or when a maintenance issue is becoming expensive enough to damage track, equipment, or product flow.
This system gives operators a practical way to combine rail weighing and condition monitoring at the wayside. Depending on the configuration, it can support check weighing, Legal-for-Trade railcar weighing, diagnostic wheel monitoring, automatic vehicle identification, acoustic exposure data, weather context, and long-term maintenance intelligence.
Where it fits
Use it where weighing and rail-condition data need to happen in the flow of work: rail yards, loading terminals, mine rail loops, steel and hot-metal operations, grain and aggregate loading, chemical and liquid bulk terminals, and plant rail networks.
The system can be specified for check weighing, commercial railcar weighing, load optimization, maintenance planning, and wayside condition monitoring.
Measurements can identify overloads, left-to-right or front-to-rear load imbalance, wheel impact events, flat spots, periodic wheel defects, wheel diameter data, train speed, vehicle identity, and environmental conditions that affect measurement interpretation.
The Qlar MULTIRAIL platform is designed so measurement functions can be combined during the initial project or added later. That matters because a bulk terminal may begin with accurate in-motion weighing, while a railroad or plant may prioritize wheel-impact diagnostics, vehicle identification, or environmental monitoring first.
Configuration examples
Weigh before and after loading to improve payload utilization while staying inside site, rail, and commercial requirements.
Monitor wheel impact and overloading events before they accelerate rail, tie, bearing, or rolling-stock damage.
Use Qlar LegalWeight railway track scale configurations for supported commercial railcar weighing applications.
Connect wheel and vehicle condition measurements with automatic identification for trend-based maintenance action.
The Qlar LegalWeight railway track scale has NTEP Certificate of Conformance 14-067A4 for qualifying in-motion and static railcar weighing configurations. For commercial applications, Walz can help align the system design, operating requirements, calibration, and documentation with the intended weighing use case.
