There are also economic reasons in favour of a uniform ballast cross-section, as excess ballast along the line ties up considerable financial capital. With a Plasser CompactRegulator, you can counteract the wasteful widening of the ballast bed and reduce the need for new ballast.
Proven technology in a new, modular design
- The ballast-crown plough distributes ballast to every part of the ballast bed using hydraulically adjustable plough blades
- Three-part ballast-bed shoulder ploughs create precise shoulder angles and move ballast in the longitudinal direction
- Rail fastening channels protect track components
- Powerful sweeping unit removes excess ballast and protects against flying ballast
- Machine types with ballast hopper for stockpiling ballast for where it is needed
- Ballast profiling is possible in both directions
Examples of the product
Time-tested machine types for every challenge
To meet the diverse requirements of modern infrastructures, CompactRegulators are innovative types of ballast distributing and profiling machines. They are equipped with specially developed, tried-and-tested functions that are precisely tailored to different application scenarios. This guarantees maximum efficiency and reliability.
Depending on the machine type, the CompactRegulator’s ballast-crown plough is designed either as a front plough or centre plough. Either option allows ballast to be distributed as desired.
The right quantity in the right profile
- Exact reprofiling of the ballast cross-section
- Save on new ballast by utilizing existing resources
- Preparation of the tamping zones for the CompactTamper
- Good view of the working area
Mechanized maintenance train with machines from the Compact series
Perfectly matched
The interplay between different machines in the fleet formation will become more important.
The better the machines work together, the higher the achievable working output and quality – and, ultimately, the economic efficiency. The machines in the Compact series are perfectly matched in terms of working output and speed, making it ideal to use them together.
A time-tested system ensures safe train transport worldwide
Time-tested for decades, the MDZ mechanized maintenance train is a system for ensuring optimal results on existing and newly laid track. It refers to the use of several machine types in a formation to produce a sustainable track position.
