The product architecture is organized by the object being tested and by the infrastructure needed to make that test repeatable.
Pantograph, traction motor, gearbox and bogie benches reproduce mechanical movement, load and rotation in controlled stations.
Converters, compressors, HVAC, generators, high-speed circuit breakers and other auxiliary systems get dedicated interfaces and test sequences.
Portable and fixed brake systems can test train pneumatics or individual brake components according to the project.
Multi-voltage depot power, battery rooms, charge/discharge and containerized/mobile facilities support the wider workshop architecture.
Hold and move the component exactly as the procedure requires.
Provide controlled power, air, cooling or other services.
Automate sequences and protect operators/equipment.
Capture the channels needed for acceptance.
Turn the sequence into repeatable quality evidence.
Commissioning, software, remote support and revamp protect the facility.
The object narrows the architecture; the acceptance procedure defines the final bench.
Start with the component interface, movement sequence, loads and required measurements.
IRMIE's differentiation is integration. Instead of technicians assembling fixtures, power supplies and instruments each time, the station makes the test repeatable and auditable.
| Layer | Question it answers | Typical IRMIE work |
|---|---|---|
| Mechanical | How is the component held and moved? | Fixtures, drives, load systems |
| Utilities | What power/air/cooling does it need? | Multi-voltage, pneumatic, cooling interfaces |
| Control | How is the sequence repeated safely? | PLC/automation/interlocks |
| Evidence | What proves acceptance? | Sensors, acquisition, reporting |
IRMIE is an active CBP principal for custom railway test benches and facility systems. Where CBP has live IRMIE opportunities, the website keeps them at their actual enquiry/engineering stage unless delivery evidence exists.
