Railway technology that goes into series production ready for approval.
In the railway environment, it's not only the product that counts but also the installation location, cable routing, supplier evidence and verifiable documentation. SAMD combines these layers into a robust systems picture — EN 50121 and EN 50155 as the common thread.
- EN 50121
- EN 50155
- System environment
- Documented evidence
- Installation
Technology that must work reliably over a long time.
Rail technology is designed for long life cycles, high availability and a complex overall system. Electronic components must not only work individually, but also interact reliably in the vehicle, along the track and under demanding electromagnetic conditions.
Typical tasks.
We support electronics, embedded software, EMC and data applications for systems in the rail and public-transport environment – from the component through the test setup to data-based evaluation in operation.
Our contribution.
We translate requirements from the system, the operating environment and approval into comprehensible technical steps. We combine development, measurement and validation so that a solution becomes a reliable development stage.
- EMC in the overall system
- Control and sensor electronics
- Passenger counting & data analysis
- Embedded software
- Verification
A typical project sequence
A system has to work under demanding environmental conditions.
Analysis, development, integration and verification mesh together.
A traceably safeguarded development stage with clear next steps.
In the railway environment, the overall system decides.
A device can be compliant and still cause interference in the vehicle — because of the installation location, cabling or system environment. We consider the component and its environment together and prepare verifiable evidence.
Standards expertise as an anchor of trust.
EN 50121 (railway EMC), EN 50155 (electronic equipment) and the associated evidence logic structure the project from the outset.
Approvable as an overall system.
In the railway environment, it's rarely the single component that decides but the interplay: installation location, cable routing, system environment and verifiable documented evidence. We combine these layers into a robust systems picture and use the EN 50121 series (railway EMC) and EN 50155 (electronic equipment) as the common thread — from development through supplier evidence to the approval of various railcars in the EU.
In concrete terms, we also take on the review and analysis of EMC reports from various suppliers — including following up on missing tests and documentation. (Check standard revisions against the valid edition before use.)
