Piper Networks
Piper offers a range of innovative products designed to revolutionize the industry, including Vital Train Positioning, Maintenance of Way (MOW) Protection, Automatic Train Protection (ATP), Grade Crossing Safety, and Passenger Information Display Systems (PIDS). With our cutting-edge Ultra Wideband (UWB), GPS-RTK, and patented TrackSight LiDAR image positioning technology, we deliver unparalleled accuracy and performance in even the most challenging transportation environments. We firmly believe that integrating UWB, LiDAR, and other advanced industrial technologies into train control systems represents a crucial advancement for signaling and track worker safety. Our relentless pursuit of solutions allows us to minimize wayside equipment needs, and in the case of Piper TrackSight, eliminate it entirely in favor of train-centric equipment. This not only ensures swift deployment but also significantly reduces costs and minimizes disruption for passengers.
Pintsch North America Inc.
Railroad Signaling built around axle counting. The Pintsch (Tiefenbach) wheel sensors have been in service with all the Class 1 Railroads for over 25 years and our parent company has been operating all of the world for over 180 years. Our applications include Grade Crossing Protection, AEI Readers, Hump Classification yards automation, Red Light Overrun Detection, Switch Protection, Shunt Enhancer, Annunciator Automation, Trap Circuits, Interlocking Systems, and the Next Problem that you have that you cannot solve with a traditional track circuit. Our sensors can overlay existing circuits with no interference or in conjunction with. For example, our systems can be used as an Island replacement on existing crossing protections where the Island will not hold up due to a contaminated crossing. We build systems for the simplest crossings to the most complex of crossing configurations. Add our new SPK10 gate mechanism to your system and you have a complete crossing system that is reliable with minimal maintenance. We provide vital switch protection in a small din rail configuration which in combination with our switch machine from Wolber with provide you with a reliable switch operation and protection like no other. We also offer a line of Signals for many applications. Pintsch North America offers Signal Design applications around axle counting. If you have a problem and need a solution, just ask. If you have a need for an application that is not offered by anyone, just ask. If you have a complex track layout that you are trying to protect or need indication of train presence, just ask. We custom design systems around your needs.
