Use ForceBEE when the question is actual brake force. Use BrakeBEE when the question is pneumatic pressure, leakage or timing. Use both when the maintenance team needs to connect cause and effect.
Directly measures brake force at disc or block brake positions. It is designed to expose weak, uneven or asymmetric mechanical braking that pressure alone may not reveal.
EXPLORE RELATED SOLUTIONWireless pneumatic measurement for brake pressure, timing and leakage workflows across a vehicle or train.
Combine pneumatic and force data with vehicle/position mapping to understand whether a brake problem begins in the air system or at the mechanical brake interface.
Portable cases, mobile trolleys, calibration, replacement modules, software and CareFree support keep the measurement system usable over time.
Measure pressure, timing and leakage.
Keep each reading tied to the correct brake position.
Move the measurement architecture through the depot.
Keep sensors traceable and minimize downtime.
Start with the evidence gap in the workshop.
Choose the pneumatic route when the problem is pressure build-up, leakage, timing or the air-brake system itself.
A brake can receive expected pneumatic pressure and still deliver the wrong force because of mechanical condition, friction interfaces, setup or component behavior. ForceBEE makes the output measurable.
| Evidence | What it tells you | Technology |
|---|---|---|
| Pressure | What the pneumatic system commands / transmits | BrakeBEE |
| Leakage / timing | How the pneumatic system behaves over time | BrakeBEE |
| Brake force | What the mechanical brake actually produces | ForceBEE |
| Cause-and-effect diagnosis | Whether pressure and force agree at each position | ForceBEE + BrakeBEE |
NET-Automation publicly documents a successful Factory Acceptance Test with PT INKA in Austria followed by on-site ForceBEE commissioning, product training and practical vehicle measurements at PT INKA in Indonesia, with explicit acknowledgement of CBP support. This supports FAT through commissioning/training/practical measurement, not a claim of final customer acceptance.
