Tamping without cutting corners: performance and flexibility
Continuous 2-sleeper tamping and stabilizing of plain-line tracks and turnouts
Highlights
- Maximum flexibility in the turnout thanks to the pivoting tamping unit, tamping unit segments that can be lowered individually, and tilting tamping tines
- Increased output during turnout maintenance thanks to continuous working action
- High track position durability and resistance to track distortion thanks to dynamic track stabilization
- Reduces speed restrictions: optimized availability of the infrastructure after maintenance with dynamic track stabilization
- The frame is designed to treat the heaviest types of superstructure (heavy-haul lines)
- High maximum working output thanks to 2-sleeper tamping technology; great flexibility in the turnout thanks to the 8x4 tamping unit
- Spacious multi-purpose areas (e.g. workshop, crew area)
- Fast approval at reduced cost thanks to the use of standardized machine components and systems

8x4 tamping unit
Tamping with high performance and maximum flexibility
The 8x4 tamping unit is an entirely new category in the field of universal tamping technology. As its name suggests, it features eight independent tamping unit segments with tiltable tamping tines. The continuous 2-sleeper Unimat 09-8x4/4S tamping machine can switch to 1-sleeper tamping mode as required. This adds value, especially when working on hollow sleepers, where the point machine is located, or on twin sleepers. Double-slip turnout tamping is turnout tamping at its finest. The 8x4 tamping unit easily masters this task using its power reserves and versatility. Thanks to these features, your machine combines the high performance of 2-sleeper tamping with maximum flexibility.
