We have been involved in the designing of railway signaling systems since 2005, where we achieve a solid position in the Hardware Engineering segment. This activity implies the development of all the diagrams and the necessary documentation with relation to the Client’s product which is crucial from the study of the installation to the final output. This can guarantee the safe running of a railway thanks to an automated management ensuring the handling of traffic volumes. Our team at Matworks has acquired experience and autonomy both in installation designing of traditional tracks and in managing high-speed lines and urban metro trains.

Over the last 15 years, we participated in the realization of important projects carried out by Italian, European and international railway networks. We participated in the following projects:

• Manchester South SCC (UK)
• Retrofitting of TORINO-PADOVA line (Italy)
• FIRENZE-ROMA AV/AC high-speed line (Italy)
• Copenhagen Metro (Denmark)
• Brussels Metro (Belgium)
• AV/AC Line Lot 1 (Italy)
• HDTS Milan railway junction (Italy)
• Queensland Rail Project: test control lab, remote control room (Australia)
• Retrofitting of AV/AC Mestre-Venezia high-speed line, new S. Lucia station, Venice (Italy)

Our team at Matworks has acquired extensive experience in supporting the Client in the offer proposal phase and in Project Management.
In the last years, we have started collaborations with operative project management firms implementing the Building Information Modelling (BIM), which presents numerous advantages:

• Improve the collaboration among the many entities involved in the project
• Guarantee the record and rigorous managing of all the project information
• Strengthen the design quality and the coordination
• Allow early analysis, simulation, control and data collection toward the control phase
• Reduce risks anticipating possible issues, way before the project get-go
• Make validated information available for the installation, maneuvering and maintenance
