The equipment on board the Unimat 08/4S series is all you need for the optimal tamping result. Multiple functions have been built into the machine’s short overall length: no trailer is required to perform a complete control measurement of the track geometry. On request, work results are documented using the new inertial measuring technology. This new technology reduces overall machine length and saves you time-consuming manual control measuring.
Plasser & Theurer machines provide scope for extensive, versatile modification. Modular expandability gives you the opportunity to individualise your Unimat to make it suit your needs. We offer a great number of configuration options for our compact 08/4S series tamping machines to suit various operational strategies and track conditions.
As maximum performance requires a homologated, opera-tional machine, we have established new standards to get your new Unimat to the worksite in no time.
Plasser & Theurer machines can be expanded modularly. These expansions are based on platform programmes and offer great potential for saving time: their technical design and quality comply with the machine's initial approval.
Plasser & Theurer's Homologation and Safety department carries out the approval process, observing all applicable requirements: EU directives and regulations as well as national policies such as standards.
Every day, we work to maintain and continuously improve our high level of safety. To that end, we have implemented a risk management process to reduce all dangers and their associated risks to a minimum. Moreover, Plasser & Theurer is certified as an independent technical railway testing laboratory as per EN ISO/IEC 17025.
Track maintenance machine approval procedures are complex. Upon customer request, we also coordinate the process of obtaining the work authorisation from the relevant infrastructure manager.
Split Head tamping units for work on tracks, turnouts, and crossings are tamping units divided in longitudinal direction of the machine. Each of the two work unit halves can be lowered and put into action separately from the other. Additionally, both work unit halves, depending on the design, can be laterally displaced together or individually.
For operation on sections of plain track the two halves are locked together to form a tamping unit for tracks.
