Railroad Tamper Machine

As a key equipment in rail track repair machinery, railroad tamper machines are indispensable in the daily maintenance and overhaul of railway lines. We provide a series of efficient and reliable railroad track maintenance tools for users in the railway industry, including railroad tamper machine products, including hydraulic rail switch tamping machine, electric hand tamping machines, internal combustion tamping machines and other types to meet the application requirements of different working environments and working intensities.

This series of railroad tamper equipment is specially designed for the compaction of railway ballast layers. Through high-frequency vibration and effective insertion force, the ballast is compacted under the sleepers, thereby improving the stability of the track structure and the smoothness of train operation. The equipment is widely used in railway engineering sections, track maintenance companies, line overhaul teams, and other units, and is suitable for complex operation scenarios such as ordinary lines, turnout sections, and switch connection areas.

Railroad Tamper Machine

The railroad tamper machine we provide has the characteristics of strong exciting force, high efficiency, convenient operation, and simple maintenance. Some models support multi-point linkage synchronous tamping, deep insertion, rubber vibration reduction, flexible movement, and other functions, which are particularly suitable for emergency repair sites and high-density working conditions.

You can quickly select the model to match the usage scenario by viewing and comparing the key parameters and applicable scope of different models of the railroad tamper machine. As a professional railway construction equipment supplier, we are committed to providing customers with safe, efficient and economical railway renovation solutions.

Typical Application Scenarios and Model Recommendations of Railroad Tamper Machine

Railway maintenance equipment plays an irreplaceable role in different environments and operational requirements. Our rail tamper products are widely used in various railway line construction and maintenance stages. They can meet the needs of various scenarios from high-intensity continuous operation to flexible and mobile repair. The following are typical application areas and recommended models:

Railway line overhaul and medium repair

In railway overhaul and medium repair projects, continuous, high-intensity and long-term work is usually required, and work quality and efficiency are indispensable.

Recommended models:

  • AG-YD-22Ⅱ, AG-YD-22 (standard hydraulic tamping machine, powerful, suitable for large-scale construction)
  • AG-YD-22Ⅲ (intelligent remote control tamping unit, suitable for occasions with high efficiency requirements and a high degree of automation)

New railway line construction

In the early stage of new line construction, the sleepers and ballast need to be compacted quickly, the construction period is tight, efficiency is prioritized, and the equipment needs to have a certain degree of versatility and adaptability.

AG-DG-550×4 railroad tamper

Recommended models:

  • AG-YD-22, AG-YD-22Ⅱ (standard hydraulic type, strong versatility)
  • AG-DG-550×4 (four machines in one group of synchronous electric tamping, suitable for intensive construction in the new line stage)

Fine-tamping in the turnout area

The turnout section has a complex structure and usually requires precise tamping at a fixed point. Traditional equipment is difficult to operate in depth, and special equipment is required to ensure construction safety and quality.

Recommended models:
  • AG-YCD-22, AG-YCD-32 (hydraulic turnout tamping machine, specially designed for turnouts, guardrails, and other structures)

Temporary emergency repair work

When faced with sudden failures or line problems, emergency repair time is urgent, and light, easy-to-carry, and quick-to-start equipment is needed. Single-person or group operation is more efficient.

Recommended models:
  • AG-ND-6, AG-ND-7 (internal combustion light impact rammer)
  • AG-DG-550 (electric tamping pick, easy to carry and quick to use on site)

Cold / plateau / complex terrain railway environment

In areas with high altitude, low temperature, or large terrain fluctuations, the equipment needs to have good starting performance and environmental adaptability.

Recommended models:
  • AG-YD-22, AG-YD-22Ⅱ (there are actual application cases in plateau areas such as the Qinghai-Tibet Railway)
