Abstract

We have developed a highly accurate method for measuring the thickness of N700S flexible-type contact strip and horn. We confirmed that the method has sufficient accuracy up to a relatively high speed (70km/h) compared to conventional one. As a result, measurement devices can be installed at high-frequency measurement locations, such as rolling stock entrance at the station on main lines, leading to a reduction in the number of installed units.
