The tender that aims to deliver better oversight and maintenance of the infrastructure. Having already proven the KONUX<\/a> Switch solution in many other European networks, the partnership holds a lot of promise for the future of Spanish rail. For KONUX<\/a>, the win makes the AI company the first to win two tenders and adds to the list of other primary customers from Europe\u2019s big 5 rail countries.<\/p>\n

KONUX<\/a> Switch\u00a0is an innovative predictive maintenance technology that uses IIoT devices and artificial intelligence (AI) to extend asset life and reduce costs.\u00a0The accuracy of both use cases \u2013 trackbed health monitoring and prediction, and frog health monitoring and prediction \u2013 has been confirmed through many years in the field.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The KONUX<\/a>\u00a0system\u00a0supports ADIF<\/a>\u00a0in making informed and data-driven decisions on its switch inspections, maintenance and replacement programs.

\u201cWe are proud to receive ADIF\u2019s<\/a> trust and collaboration in improving their railway operations and maintenance of assets as critical as railway switches. We have proven our AI solutions elsewhere and we are excited to take this next step in Spain. We are certain it is the first step of a successful collaboration for the foreseeable future,\u201d said Angel Zuil, KONUX<\/a> Spain Account Director.<\/p>\n
