KML Engineering Limited developed an Intelligent Point Machine Test Rig to help railway operators test point machines, which are critical safety equipment used to move switch blades and ensure safe train operations. The test rig allows automatic and manual testing of point machine performance, running tests, obstruction tests, and other functions. It provides a cost-effective way for railway operators to test multiple point machine types and help assure safety, reliability, and customer service. KML aims to market the test rig to railway operators across China, Southeast Asia, and Hong Kong to help them maintain point machine operations and prevent costly service disruptions.
