The videogrammetric system was developed and applied to industrial control of the geometrical parameters of railway wheels.The measuring system uses three videogrammetric channels. Two of them apply the laser light sheet scheme. These channels have a measurement range of 500x500 mm. The measurement errors of each of the two coordinates do not exceed 0.15 mm. The third channel is constructed under a shadowgraphic scheme on base of a light beam of radial rays and provides the measurements of the wheel rolling surface geometry. This channel has a measurement range of 120x180 mm and measurement tolerance of 0.05 mm. The measurement system has been placed in operation on the industrial conveyor at Vyksunsky steel works. It operates in real time with the conveyor.
