Material conveyor and hopper unit MFS 40
Ballast cleaning, formation rehabilitation, recycling - Track-laying
The MFS 100, MFS 100 S and MFS 40 material conveyor and silo wagons transport ballast, spoil and FPL for ballast cleaning and formation remediation work. Their main feature is the continuous conveying, storage and unloading process. The wagons also achieve controlled unloading of the construction material onto the adjacent track (construction track), for example, onto railway wagons with a smaller capacity.
Funktionsmerkmale
- Assembly of any number of MFS wagons to form a train with the respective required storage capacity
- Start of the filling process at the front wagon (in working direction), the following wagons act as a conveyor line
- Simultaneous emptying of all MFS wagons by swivelling out the unloading belts
- Metered unloading to the adjacent track possible (construction track)
- New ballast added in combination with the RM 900 S and RPM-RS-900
- FPL added in combination with the RPM-RS-900
- Ballast spread evenly by means of the MFS 100 S ballast spreader (transports ballast from the front conveyor belt for distribution into the four hydraulically adjustable ballast chutes and flaps)
