The productivity of this continuous tamping–levelling–lining machine is up to 50% higher than that of cyclic machines. Its regular use has been proven to extend track maintenance intervals, resulting in significant cost savings.
It is equipped with two tamping units, with a total of 48 tamping tools, allowing the tamping of three sleepers in a single working cycle. It can achieve a production rate of 2,200 m/h, making it the highest‑performance type of tamping machine in Spain.
It can handle any track tamping work on both standard gauge and international gauge lines.
- Working system with absolute reference and fixed point
- Computer‑assisted guidance system, with prior track survey and computerized geometry optimization
- 8‑channel graphical recorder for track parameters
