ACTION

Automatic guidance and control of the tamping machine

ACTION receives the theoretical design geometry and automatically drives the tamping machine during work. It translates the data into commands for the hydraulic and pneumatic units and governs tamping forces, advance speed and operating sequences, leaving the operator in a supervisory role. At the end of the run it generates the report on the geometry achieved to EN 13848.
