Abstract
:
The objective of this research was to develop an automated system to reduce profilograph traces generated by a manual profilograph. The tasks included locating and marking the bumps which would require grinding and to determine the profile index of the new riding surface. The objective was accomplished following the guidelines provided in Kansas Test Method KT-46I. Selecting the hardware and developing the software necessary for computing the profile index and locating the bumps which would need grinding has resulted in a compact and easy to use system capable of reducing any profilogram.
