Abstract: Positioning equipment refers to devices for moving objects, namely lifting devices, and are used in various branches of mechanical engineering, including railway engineering. Devices of this type are relevant for use in measuring technology for positioning rotating parts. The positioning device is usually used as part of equipment for measuring and monitoring the dimensions of wheelsets. The purpose of the study was to consider various methods and devices for positioning wheelsets, to identify their advantages, constraints and disadvantages. The objective of the research was to develop a new positioning device intended to improve dependability of operations, expand the range of application and functionality. The article provides recommendations for creating a more universal positioning device suitable for use with various types of wheelsets.
