After successful tests by the French SNCF, Althen GmbH Mess- und Sensortechnik is bringing its dynamic weighing system AWIM (Althen Weighing in Motion) to the German railway sector. The weighing system allows monitoring infrastructure load and enables predictive maintenance.

During the test flight of the Flying V, TU Delft used Aeroprobe's specialized Micro Air Data System and an integrated multi-hole Air Data Probe to gather accurate test results.

Althen Sensors & Controls expands its portfolio Industrial IoT sensors with a new range of wireless IoT vibration and temperature sensors. The sensors are developed by Treon and Althen takes care of the distribution and (project) implementation in Western Europe.

The GNSS signal for the position determination of trains and self-driving vehicles is very precise, but not available everywhere, and therefore needs to be supplemented by additional measurements. The sensor specialist ASC has now developed a new rotation rate sensor that is ideal for this task: The high-precision ASC 281/283 offers navigation bridges, for example, in tunnels or railway stations.

Althen Sensors & Controls has signed a distribution agreement with sensor manufacturer Opkon for the Benelux, Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Scandinavia. Opkon is a producer of high-quality linear and rotary potentiometers and produces all its products in Istanbul, Turkey.
