EXHIBITOR CATEGORIES INCLUDE: Rolling Stock, Track & Infrastructure, Digital Twins, Condition Based Monitoring, Remote condition monitoring, Data Set Analysis, Smart Maintenance, IOT for Predictive Maintenance, Continuous Network Monitoring, Unmanned Diagnostic Systems, AI Integration, Technology to Support your Asset Management, Automated inspection techniques, Increasing Network Capacity

Following the success of the Rolling Stock & Track Maintenance Middle East 2019 which saw an unprecedented turn out, the Rolling Stock & Track Maintenance Middle East 2021 will demonstrate the most advanced Condition Based Maintenance Technologies and BIG DATA management solutions showing how to successfully implement advanced maintenance strategies and best leverage IoT and BIG DATA to drive innovative remote maintenance business cases.

New Rolling Stock maintenance and Track Maintenance technologies and SaaS (Software Services) business models are innovating optimisation of maintenance strategies, improving data analytics’ and reducing cost. Advanced data capture systems and analysis provide a whole new dimension of visibility on rail assets and allow rail operators to improve the return they get from their assets by developing new business processes and maintenance procedures.

This unique summit sets out to analyse both the predictive maintenance and asset optimisation

applications of IoT, Big Data and Condition Based Maintenance – to capture and ‘practically utilise’ data, allowing Train Operating Companies, Infrastructure Managers and Heads of Maintenance to implement or further advance their data capture systems, reducing costs and down time. Attendees will hear from some of the Gulf and Europe’s most successful case study examples and meet the global technology experts and suppliers who will demonstrate how those technologies can significantly improve your business.

As governments strive to meet project deadlines and heavily invest in rail infrastructure, we will also look at the many developing rail projects from across the region. Whilst Heads of Assets, Maintenance and Operations have made huge technological advancements; the exponential innovation in technologies to better harness and utilise data sets means that there remain many more opportunities for Rail Authorities and Train Operators to reduce costs, reduce down time, improve scheduling, increase capacity, efficiency, and better the over-all service.

After a decade of success in Europe, The ‘Digitalisation of Railway Asset Maintenance Summit arrives in the Middle East to showcase solutions and examples from across the world on how to implement advanced condition based / predictive maintenance systems and leverage IoT to drive advanced maintenance practice within your organisation and across the Middle East rail transit systems.

The Middle East is undergoing huge development in the rail sector, with multiple new projects approaching completion; with that will come higher passenger numbers, greater journey opportunities and more passenger expectations. The Middle East is undertaking a revolution in rail digitalisation and transformation at an accelerated pace, backed by huge government interest and investment. This summit is the only ‘maintenance specific’ - strategic, high-level, content-lead conference representing the key stake holders across the entire region.

We look forward to you joining us at this unparalleled meeting for rail professionals.

1:00PM SMART SYSTEM ENGINEERING FOR HIGH SPEED TRAINS MAINTENANCEJosé Antonio Marcos Alberca Carriazo, Head manager of Smart maintenance Engineering, TALGO (tbc)• Nowadays High-speed train maintenance is very

complex and high tech, and the challenges to achieve as reliability availability are very high. In order to reach these challenges, Talgo has developed new maintenance technologies based on the latest technology and innovation to perform condition-based maintenance (CBM) to predict the failures and increase train availability and reliability.

• To apply condition-based maintenance techniques, Talgo has developed algorithms capable to predict the failures, using machine learning technology to do it.

• Machine learning, need a lot of data to model the algorithms, therefore Talgo have developed a real-time monitoring system using Google Cloud architecture.

• The health status is assessed by machine learning

algorithms, capable of detecting anomalous behaviour. In addition to this approach of Artificial Intelligence, in the health of the component other relevant factors in the maintenance play an important role, such as the information of the component maintenance operations performed or the events and alarms that the component has generated.

• Through this technology the Talgo Maintenance team is able to anticipate the failure of the component, which makes it possible to achieve train reliabilities around 100%. In addition, with this possibility of prediction, it is possible to perform a more effective maintenance of the components, taking advantage of a longer life of them. On the other hand, this anticipated vision allows maintenance operations to be programmed more efficiently, reducing their time and cost of execution
