Tamping Machine Upgrades from Plasser & Theurer
Many of our machines have been in operation for several decades. During this time, technological progress has been made. New machine functions make it possible to complete certain tasks more easily. Thanks to the top quality of our machines, upgrading older machines with the latest technology really pays off: it increases the output achieved, enables a more flexible operation and reduces the machines’ susceptibility to failure.
Therefore, we are offering “machine upgrades” providing you with different service options.
High stability thanks to Win-ALC NG automatic guiding computer
The new touch panel PC ensures a higher level of stability and contributes to minimising the control system’s susceptibility to failure. We are now offering the Win-ALC NG as an exchange package. Within one day, it is exchanged and returned to service.
Digital benefits of the DRP digital measuring recording system
In 2013, we introduced the first digital recorder onto the market: the DRP data recording processor. In addition to numerous benefits, it processes more than the usual eight signals. Now, machines can be upgraded with these digital devices.
Levelling and alignment laser and curve laser for tamping machines
Upgrade tamping machines with laser devices for surveying work: the levelling and alignment laser for plain track and the curve laser system for curves and turnouts.
Direct access to machine data
PlasserDatamatic provides an interface enabling access to machine data and processes. The basic package comprises PlasserLiveInfo: online and mobile data access using a browser, mobile phone or tablet. The PlasserDatamaticRecorder enables recording and analysing data. The upgrade is made in two stages.
New rotation speed modulation for tamping units
The new rotation speed modulation makes it possible to modulate the rotation speed of tamping units during the individual work phases. This reduces both wear on the tamping units and noise emitted during operation. Every machine is checked separately prior to the installation of the upgrade.
