Abstract
The article discusses the need to improve the efficiency of freight cars operation by introducing modern technologies in the maintenance process. To improve the quality of technical inspection of rolling stock at the maintenance point, it is offered to introduce a robotic complex capable of autonomously conducting technical inspection and diagnostics of rolling stock. Structurally, the robotic complex includes: chassis; manipulator; automation, control and data transmission system; diagnostic equipment; power unit. The possibility of using various diagnostic tools, vision systems, non-contact scanning sensors is considered. The functions of the complex are to pass through the inspection positions, identify malfunctions, accumulate information about the technical condition of the car with the transfer of information to the fleet operator or maintenance point.
