RSRG cooperates with promising young companies.
At Rhomberg Sersa, we believe in promoting young talent, and not just our own human resources. The group also participates in emerging new companies financially and in terms of content. Above all, it is the customers who benefit.
Thomas Bachhofner, CEO of the Railway Technology Group, explains: “No matter how different our customers and their country-specific framework conditions and regulations may be worldwide, our task always remains the same: We want to cost-effectively build and maintain a very precise system in nature, on which our customers can safely transport people and goods ecologically, partly at high speed and preferably around the clock.” To ensure this, you need not only the best employees but also the best ideas and the best technology. That is why RSRG consistently invests in innovative minds with exciting business ideas. Three examples:
BII GmbH: Construction process optimisation
With its product dProB, Building Information Innovator GmbH offers a clever, digital tool that allows construction processes to be planned intuitively and interactively in a gaming environment. Based on the normal CAD planning for the building structures, dProB realises the construction sequence planning as well as the construction process planning. In doing so, the tool collects all relevant data and thus the recipe for success on how this project and similar projects can be carried out in the best possible way in the future. In the future, dProB will be able to pre-plan construction processes (partially) automatically. The innovation is in use in the RSRG projects for Stuttgart 21, the Koralmtunnel and the Weichenlos (‘switch lot’) in Switzerland, among others.
iNovitas AG: Infrastructure in 3D
iNovitas is a partner of the RSRG-ARGE FahrwegDiagnose. The young company from Baden, Switzerland, provides its cloud-based technology, which enables the digitalisation as well as the web-based provision and use of road and railway networks in the form of intelligent 3D images. The core product is the infra3D service, which brings infrastructure facilities such as track corridors directly onto the user's screen in three dimensions. The accuracy facilitates the planning of construction projects, simplifies infrastructure maintenance or enables infrastructure management.
Nekonata XR Technologies GmbH: Simulators
The hardware and software specialist from Vienna supports the RSRG with lifelike mixed reality simulations. NXRT has developed, for example, high-precision virtual applications that allow real vehicles to be used as simulators. For instance, it can be used to simulate dangerous situations in a safe environment and provide training for driving, shunting and safety personnel. Furthermore, infrastructure components such as switches can also be visualised and virtually inspected during lessons.
