zedas®asset for Automated People Movers

Automated People Movers (APM) are full-automated, driver-less transport systems for public transport. They are operated over relatively short distances, e.g. at airports, exhibition and industrial complexes, and are designed for a high frequency of repeat journeys.

APM manufacturers and operators place great importance on the almost 100% availability of the systems. Maintenance strategies therefore play a major role in this form of railway. With zedas®asset, APM manufacturers and operators fulfil complex requirements and at the same time reduce lifecycle costs.

Our solution integrates maintenance and planning functional blocks (IPS), and includes:

• Condition monitoring and industrial data collection (CM)
• Handling of warranty services
• LCC/RAMS validation
• Putting into operation

The maintenance planning and control system offers a complete concept. The aim is to increase the availability, reliability and safety of vehicles and components.

The exacting requirements, for example those relating to complete documentation of operating and maintenance, and keeping of proof of performance are fulfilled by the zedas®asset partially automated data acquisition and its flexible reporting. Permanent availability of information at company headquarters and a quick and flexible response to problems and faults are other benefits.
