JAQUET TECHNOLOGY GROUP has a large experience in the speed sensing for the propulsion control from light rail vehicle up to high speed trains, all over the world contact.
JAQUET TECHNOLOGY GROUP offers speed sensors for brake control (ABS/WSP) - 1, 2, 3 or 4 channels per sensor, 2 or 3 wires, qualified for axle-mounting contact.
For the increasing demand on speed sensing for signaling and event recording JAQUET TECHNOLOGY GROUP has the right solution. We developed a modular system to cover any application in this area contact.

Brazil is living a very particular era in the railway industry history. All government levels from the Federal, trough the State to the Municipal governments are massive investing in the modernization and expansion of the railway systems. This not only because of the FIFA football world cup in 2014 and the Olympic games in Rio de Janeiro in 2016, but based on a political decision to cope with the increasing demand on mass transport in the last 10-20 years.
From Porto Alegre in the south up to Maceio in the north, almost everywhere we can find railway projects not only for passengers but also for freight transportation. Some of the projects for metro and suburban trains are in Rio de Janeiro, in São Paulo, in Porto Alegre, in Curitiba, in Belo Horizonte, in Fortaleza and in Recife, some of the light rail vehicle projects are in Santos, São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Maceio, some of the mono-rail projects in São Paulo, a high speed train project to link Rio de Janeiro to São Paulo-Campinas, not to mention several projects to expand the railway network in the northeast part of the country.
Important manufacturers of railway locomotives, metro cars, electrical multiple units, mono-rail, freight wagons and light rail vehicles (tramway) , as well as important suppliers of brake, doors, signaling and other sub-systems, are established in Brazil with production plants.
Jaquet is present and will be present in most of the projects though the long term cooperation with the major suppliers of the railway industry.
The harsh world of the axle mounted speed sensors for brake and traction control is familiar territory for JAQUET. Offered with standard or custom flange arrangements for ease of mounting, our brake sensors are a proven solution for new or retrofit requirements.
To enhance propulsion control of trains, JAQUET sensors are normally bogie mounted on the motor or gearbox and are immune to the associated large magnetic fields. A typical arrangement is a 2 channel sensor with phase shifted outputs for speed and direction.
The performance and health of diesel locomotive engines can be diagnosed from the progress of rotation. JAQUET‘s MDS4000 delivers cylinder specific information allowing event based maintenance as opposed to often unnecessary scheduled overhauls.
JAQUET TECHNOLOGY GROUP is headquartered in Basel, Switzerland, and has subsidiaries in Belgium, China, Germany, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and the United States (Jaquet on globalspec.com).
