Greater efficiency, availability, and flexibility: The zentrak OBJECT CONTROLLER PLATFORM at InnoTrans 2026

2026-09-04 | 

At this year's InnoTrans in Berlin, voestalpine Railway Systems is presenting the universal zentrak OBJECT CONTROLLER PLATFORM (UNIOC). Developed according to the European standard EULYNX, zentrak UNIOC demonstrates how modern signalling technology can be more easily integrated, operated, and expanded.

EULYNX is a European industry standard for digital signaling technology. Its aim is to standardize communication between interlocking systems and field elements such as points, signals, and level crossings.

How the zentrak OBJECT CONTROLLER PLATFORM simplifies railway infrastructure

zentrak UNIOC is the technological basis for controlling and monitoring key field elements along the railway line. The platform was developed according to the EULYNX standard and enables standardized communication between interlocking systems and field elements. 

What makes zentrak UNIOC special: Instead of developing a separate hardware and software solution for each application, voestalpine Railway Systems relies on a common platform. This allows different applications to be operated on the same technological foundation. 

The zentrak OBJECT CONTROLLER PLATFORM includes solutions for: 

  • zentrak UniAC[2] for Train Detection Systems
  • zentrak UNIOC P for Points
  • zentrak UNIOC LS for Light Signals
  • zentrak UNIOC IO for Generic Inputs and Outputs
  • zentrak UNIOC LC for Level Crossings 

 All field elements use the same platform architecture and differ only in their specific functions. 

These are the advantages

  • A unified platform architecture for different types of field elements
  • A modular design that can be adapted to specific application requirements
  • Robust construction for reliable operation in harsh railway environments
  • Simplified installation and maintenance through practical and user-friendly design
  • Integrated safety and cybersecurity functions embedded directly into the platform architecture by design 

By bringing multiple field element applications together on a common platform and aligning them with EULYNX principles, voestalpine Railway Systems is helping to advance the transition towards more open, interoperable and future-ready railway infrastructure.  

With zentrak UNIOC, voestalpine Railway Systems will demonstrate at InnoTrans 2026 how modern signalling technology can contribute to increased availability, simplified maintenance, and greater flexibility in railway operations. 

The InnoTrans is regarded as THE most important international trade fair for transportation technology and takes place every two years at the Berlin Exhibition Grounds. To mark its 30th anniversary, voestalpine Railway Systems — the world’s leading provider of complete railway infrastructure systems — will showcase its latest developments in digital system solutions.
