rip® Railcar Inspection Portal
AI-Powered Railcar Inspection at Track Speed
Operating at track speeds up to 125 MPH, the rip® Railcar Inspection Portal captures 360-degree high-resolution images of every railcar and makes them available for review in near real time.
Advanced AI with Machine Learning (ML) and Machine Vision (MV) models automatically detect anomalies and defects, delivering actionable results in an average of 60 seconds. The platform supports faster and more consistent inspection decisions across yard and mainline operations.
The Centraco® visualization workflow gives inspection teams an intuitive interface to review captures, validate detections, and keep full digital traceability. Built for real-world rail environments, the system is ruggedized for dependable performance at scale.
