Introduction
The Ballast Compactor (YCD-2 Hydraulic Turnout Tamping Tools Railway) is an advanced railway maintenance machine designed for efficient tamping of turnout areas, high-speed turnouts, and conventional lines. Its hydraulic-driven, high-frequency vibration system ensures dense ballast compaction, improving track support strength and train ride smoothness. Suitable for both single and group operations, the Ballast Compactor offers high efficiency, low failure rates, and reliable performance for complex track structures.
Key Features & Specifications
The YCD-2 Ballast Compactor is powered by a GX390 9.6KW gasoline engine, featuring a high-frequency hydraulic vibration system operating at 65-67Hz. Its working pressure is 4Mpa+0.5Mpa, with an exciting force of 32.5kN. The compact dimensions (1350x520x1650mm) and main weight of 335kg make it maneuverable in turnout areas, while maintaining optimal tamping efficiency.
