Technology company RMD, Railway Metrics and Dynamics, has signed an agreement with JK Exim in India, through its partner JK Exim, to test and evaluate the company's PMU sensors at the state-owned Indian Railways.

The company announced this in a press release.

India is currently undertaking one of the world's largest railway investments. This year alone, SEK 280 billion is being invested to modernize infrastructure and increase capacity, safety, and sustainability.

"Initially, this involves a handful of PMU sensors, and the first tests will focus on real-time monitoring of rolling stock in passenger traffic," says Anish Gupta, COO at JK Exim and responsible for the integration of new systems.

RMD and Indian Railways will maintain a continuous dialogue throughout the test period via JK Exim in order to quickly address technical issues relating to the mobile network and coverage, as well as compatibility and localization issues.

"This is very exciting for us. A handful of PMUs may not seem like much, but the opportunity to showcase RMD's products on the Indian market is fantastic," says Jan Lindqvist, CEO of RMD.

The PMUs will be delivered to India at the end of May, and the test period will begin in mid-June and continue for 4-6 months.
