CA 2279568

Installation and process for measuring the unsoundness and diameter of railway wheels using a rolling rail (2) along which the railway wheel (1) to be measured passes, and a guard-rail (8) to center said wheel during the measurement process. Several compact light sources (3) project compact light beams (9) over the wheel (1), such that they continuously interfere with the wheel flange and rolling band, the images produced by said compact light beams being projected over an opaque filter (4). A video camera (5) captures the images projected over the opaque filter (4) and sends them to a computer (6), where said images are filed to process them later on. The measurement process is initiated by a trigger system (7) which detects the presence of a wheel (1) and activates or deactivates the measuring equipment. The invention is applicable to the repair and maintenance of railway wheels.
