Designed to meet the increasing demands for precision, efficiency, and digital connectivity, the latest ROSPECT generation combines innovative hardware with intelligent software to deliver reliable results in daily operations.
One of the key innovations is the Adjustable Track Gauge, which allows the system to be flexibly adapted to a wide range of track profiles and infrastructure requirements. This versatility makes ROSPECT suitable for diverse networks and operating conditions. The lightweight design further enhances usability, enabling fast, safe, and uncomplicated on- and off-tracking, even in challenging environments or tight maintenance windows.
As a 100 percent electric solution, the third-generation ROSPECT is powered by proven ROBEL battery technology. This ensures quiet, emission-free operation while maintaining high performance and endurance throughout measurement tasks. The dual-cab design adds another layer of efficiency, allowing bidirectional operation without time-consuming repositioning and supporting smooth workflows on site.
In close cooperation with our partners Vogel & Plötscher GmbH & Co. KG, responsible for track geometry measurement expertise, and Track Machines Connected, providing seamless software integration, ROSPECT becomes a complete, end-to-end system. Data acquisition, analysis, and documentation are intelligently linked, enabling transparent processes, consistent data quality, and faster decision-making.
Together, these innovations support infrastructure managers and maintenance teams in optimizing their workflows, improving asset reliability, and planning maintenance activities with confidence. With the third generation of ROSPECT, ROBEL takes another decisive step toward digitally connected, sustainable, and future-oriented rail maintenance. This advancement underscores a clear commitment to innovation, safety, and efficiency, delivering measurable value to operators while supporting long-term infrastructure strategies and the successful transition toward smarter, data-driven railway systems worldwide across global rail networks.
