Description
Prototype
This newly developed ballast renewal machine from Plasser & Theurer is equipped with two drive options – electric and diesel-electric (hybrid) – by means of a 600-kW diesel engine.
Driving engines and hydraulics are always driven electrically. The electric drive allows for a low-maintenance, as well as silent and low-emission operation (CO2-reduced).
The trendsetting design is mainly function-orientated and designed to enhance work safety.
Model
The model is to a high degree a copy of the prototype in terms of both function and design.
- Operation - optional to have in drive mode or working mode, which means travelling forward at approximately 3kmh with tamping unit moving vertically and horizontally
- Pantograph - motor-driven, several light functions
- Digital Decoder - with original sound for electric or diesel engine for DCC, MM and analogue mode DC, compatible with RailCom
Synchronised tamping unit with the drive motors and the sound.
Premium two-part model with zinc diecasting chassis and two synchronized drive motors ensuring a dynamic yet sensitive train operation, supported by integral current memories.
With coupler pockets, NEM 362, and attached system coupling.
Functions in analogue mode
- Driving mode forward / reverse
- Switchable functions: Working mode with fully functional tamping unit, synchronised with the drive motors and the sound, incl. warning light and working lights
- Sound active
- Light active (configurable by CVs)
Functions in digital mode
- Driving mode forward/reverse
- Switchable functions: Working mode with fully functional tamping unit, synchronised with the drive motors and the sound (slide movement forward and backward, tamping movement, also all individually switchable)
- Sound, horn
- Pantograph up/down
- Shunting mode
Switchable light functions in digital mode
- Coach lighting white or blue
- Headlights switchable individually according to direction of travel as well white/red, high and low beam switchable
- Stoplight
- High beam
- Operator’s cab lighting
- Work space lighting
- Warning light front and back
