Highlights

  • Simultaneous tamping of two sleepers thanks to the combination of the 4x4 universal tamping unit with half of a 09-2X plain-line tamping unit
  • Maximum flexibility in the turnout thanks to variable use of 32 tamping tines, 3-rail lifting, and 4-rail tamping
  • The frame is designed to treat the heaviest types of superstructure (heavy-haul lines)
  • Reaches the worksite fast thanks to a maximum speed of 100 km/h during self-propelled transfer travel
  • Post-measuring while working eliminates an extra measuring run
  • The world’s leading tamping technology – tested under various operating conditions on every continent
  • Greatest flexibility even in heavy, large turnouts
  • Machine and cabs in state-of-the-art design and in line with ergonomic aspects (ergonomic, user-friendly, clear layout, innovative)
  • Fast approval at reduced cost thanks to the use of standardized machine components and systems
  • Simplified maintenance thanks to standardized assemblies

Technical data and factsheet

2X-4x4 tamping unit

Universal tamping at its best
Why combine two different tamping units? The tamping unit half that adjusts to turnouts offers more movability and flexibility. On plain-line tracks, however, performance is key: this is where both halves work together in 2X mode. The second tamping unit half now features fewer moveable parts. This reduces the need for maintenance and minimizes life cycle costs.
