All track is subject to settling due to traffic loads. This settling occurs irregularly and in an uncontrolled manner, resulting in track deterioration. Dynamic track stabilization is a combination of horizontal vibration and a vertical load. The stabilising unit is a well proven design developed in 1975 with more than 400 machines in regular use on various railroads worldwide since 1978. HISTORYThe dynamic stabilization of the track is an essential factor in track maintenance. Dynamic stabilization of the track is a successful method developed by Plasser & Theurer for optimum track maintenance. There is scarcely another method in the track laying and track maintenance sector that has been investigated by railways and research institutes as intensively as dynamic track stabilization. The findings from these wide-ranging tests have contributed towards further optimization of the technique. Today the dynamic track stabilizer is an established feature in the machine fleets of railways and contracting firms all over the world. The aim:The aim of dynamic track stabilization is to achieve improved anchoring of the track skeleton in the ballast bed. After dynamic stabilization, the condition of the track offers greater operating safety and enables travel at the maximum line speed, particularly on newly laid track or after full track maintenance. As a result, speed restrictions can be avoided and stoppages completely reduced. In addition, due to the dynamic track stabilization, the geometrically correct position of the track is available for a longer period of time, the quality reserve of the track rises. The systematic use of this procedure during renovation, new track laying ballast bed cleaning, and track maintenance gives savings in the operating area and a favorable cost/benefit calculation of the complete track maintenance. The principle:The dynamic track stabilizer sets the track in horizontal oscillations whilst applying a static vertical load at the same time. This causes the ballast stones to re-arrange their position, with the result that the track is lowered and "rubbed" into the ballast bed. Mode of operation:When maintenance is performed using a tamping machine, the track is levelled, lifted, lined and tamped. The tamping machine consolidates the ballast underneath the sleepers in the area of the tamping zones. The subsequent dynamic stabilization produces a homogeneous ballast structure. The vibration in the ballast in conjunction with the static load causes the pieces of ballast to be pushed closer together. A force-free reorganization of the pieces of ballast is the result. The number of cavities is reduced, the ballast stones show, instead of single points of contact, a larger number of contact surfaces and edges. Also, between sleepers and ballast stones the number of contact surfaces increases significantly. This homogenization of the ballast bed raises the durability of the track maintenance. The overall larger frictional surface between sleepers and ballast produces a larger resistance to lateral displacement both for the loaded, as well as for the unloaded track. In contrast to other conventional methods of ballast treatment there is a spatial consolidation with a completely altered ballast structure. A new bearing support is produced for the sleeper, while retaining or even improving the perfect track geometry, wider areas of the ballast bed take over the transmission of the forces. The resistance to longitudinal displacement is raised too. During the work, the dynamic lateral displacement resistance can be measured and recorded without requiring an additional work step. The same applies to all other essential parameters for the track geometry. The advantages:Homogeneous, spatial consolidation of the entire ballast bed.Increase of the resistance to lateral displacement.Protection of the ballast material before rubbing by the dynamic settlement of the Ballast stones.Reduction of the danger of track buckling.Durability of accurate track geometry over a longer period, raising the quality reserve of the track.Extension of the maintenance intervals.Great savings in the sectors track maintenance and operational hindrance costs when the technique is applied regularly.Dynamic stabilization raises the safety and helps to lower costs. Dynamic track stabilizer in standard railway vehicle design.Two stabilization units, arranged between the two bogies.Four-track rollers and two pressure rollers per unit acting as clamps.Synchronous-action out of balance oscillator to produce the horizontal oscillation directed crosswise to the track axis (0-42 Hz).Hydraulic cylinders to apply the vertical load (max. 356 kN).Proportional levelling system for an automatic tailor-made settlement.Two noise insulated cabs each with a driver's control desk.In one of the two cabs the operating and control elements for use when working are clearly arranged.Between the two cabs the side of the machine can be covered if required.With additional measuring trailers, as well as a multi-channel recorder, it is possible to record up to six track parameters (option).

New in the SEALED Box Figures, Vehicles, background items are not included but sold separately SHIPPING: We do combine shipping on multiple purchases. If you do a Buy It Now the transaction requires immediate payment for each item separately. What you need to do is put it in the shopping cart and then when you go to checkout it will recalculate the shipping and combine the items for you. If you pay first I am unable to make any adjustment because ebay has then taken its fees on the shipping as well. If you have a concern message me and I can work something out for you. THIS IS AN ASSEMBLED Item The item is NEW in the original box from old stock PERSONAL INVENTORY: Many of these unique items are from my personal inventory which was accumulated over the years. They are hard to part with but due to downsizing in retirement they too are looking for a good home which can appreciate and enjoy them. STORE INVENTORY: Having discontinued my Hobby Store and left frigid “Minne-Snow-Da” I have relocated and retired to the warmer part of the country, Down to Sunny TEXAS. I will be Liquidating the remaining stock. I will be listing items over the next year or so clearing them out. Please see the photos we take actual photos of each item Most of these items are New in the box removed only to take photos of them.
