P&T Connected was launched in 2017 as a start-up to record, connect and analyse data retrieved from track maintenance and construction machines. TMC, which is based in Hagenberg, Austria, will take over P&T Connected’s existing offers and add services for the collection and processing of rail infrastructure data.

TMC will also work to identify methods to use a track infrastructure digital twin as the basis for condition-based maintenance and the optimisation of network availability.

The new company offers products and services for infrastructure operators, machine operators and machine manufacturers from the track construction and maintenance industry.
