Save costs by staying safe
With IBIS, the modular I, Bcontrol, Iinformation and Ssafety system for small, medium and large maintenance plants, you always have an overview of all machine conditions and maintenance processes.
Small causes – big effect
Every year, major financial losses result from the failure of rail vehicles with their complex mechanical systems, which are made up of many subsystems. It is precisely here that small causes often have a big impact, because in a utilization geared to availability, vehicle failures have massive consequences.
Extensive data collection helps to prevent expensive repairs or vehicle failures and enables preventive activities to be initiated in good time. Replacing components precisely before they reach critical wear levels significantly reduces the number of failures. However, this can only be achieved with a sensibly coordinated maintenance concept. This saves money on unnecessary downtime and gets the vehicles back on track faster.
On your mark, get set, safe!
Making complexity easy to manage, making optimal use of technical possibilities, providing intelligent support for employees
With IBIS FLEX and IBIS PRO, Berghof Automation presents an innovative operation and maintenance concept for small, medium and large maintenance plants in compliance with current safety guidelines for man and machine. The major advantage: IBIS can be configured for any application.
The modular maintenance, operations control, information and safety system optimizes train maintenance and servicing work by making the best possible use of all available resources in terms of technology, tracks and personnel. At the same time, the system strictly complies with all safety regulations of the German Federal Railway Authority (EBA). In this way, a control system can be used to centrally monitor decentrally distributed plants without the need for a large number of personnel. Besides increased automation of processes, the control system also ensures the highest possible level of work safety on all tracks.
