A servohydraulic system is set up in an industrial lab with control panels and machinery for advanced testing.

Advanced Control for Servohydraulic Systems

Many railway facilities rely on servohydraulic shakers that offer sine control only. m+p VibControl adds full random control and mixed modes to support railway vibration testing for converters, housings, bogie parts and electronic assemblies. This enables broadband and realistic qualification according to IEC 61373 and other railway standards.

Compliance and Certification Testing

m+p international software automates documentation, reporting and data capture to meet railway testing norms. Facilities can generate audit-ready reports for IEC 61373, environmental sequences and mechanical durability requirements, ensuring consistent and repeatable qualification.

Railway tracks with switches and signals are set up for testing infrastructure components.

Testing of Track and Infrastructure Components

Infrastructure elements such as fasteners, sleepers and signal housings experience ground vibrations from passing trains. m+p VibControl reproduces these loads for durability and fatigue testing, helping engineers assess long-term performance and reduce maintenance risks in railway networks.
