Ballast Cleaner for Sale

A ballast cleaner is a type of railway maintenance machinery specifically designed for cleaning rail sleepers. In the railway tamping project, The rail tamping machine leaves ballast on the sleepers and track bed after it has completed its work. The ballast cleaner can efficiently complete ballast cleaning work. Thereby ensuring the stability and safety of railway operations. Reducing manual labor brings great convenience to railway construction. It is particularly suitable for medium- to large-scale railway maintenance and repair projects.
Ballast cleaner uses hydraulic technology, it also has the advantages of automatic walking, remote control, and thorough cleaning. It greatly improves railway maintenance efficiency and applies to various scenarios such as trunk railways, stations, and turnouts. It is an indispensable key equipment for modern railway maintenance.

Advantages of Ballast Cleaner

High Efficiency

The efficiency of ballast cleaner is much higher than manual operation. It can process a large amount of ballast at one time and can operate continuously. Effectively shortened construction period and railway downtime, and improved operational efficiency.

High Level of Automation

The ballast cleaner is designed with an advanced system of automatic walking and remote control. Reduce manual intervention, lower labor intensity, and improve operation accuracy and maintenance efficiency.

Highly Adaptable

The design of ballast cleaner can adapt to a variety of complex routes and construction environments, including ramps, tunnels, bridges, and other routes. It can also be specially manufactured according to different track gauges.

Integrated Manufacturing

Ballast cleaner is a new product that integrates ballast cleaning operations, protection, automatic operation, electrical, mechanical, and hydraulic functions. The construction process is simplified and the operation difficulty is reduced.

Ballast Cleaner Maintenance

1. Daily maintenance

Railroad ballast cleaning machine Check the hydraulic oil level, engine oil, and coolant before and after operation. Clean the vibrating screen after operation. Check the conveyor belt tension and wear. Lubricate all bearings and rotating parts promptly.

2. Regular maintenance

Replace the hydraulic oil filter every 50 working hours, check the electrical system wiring, and tighten all bolted connections. Replace the engine oil and filter, clean the fuel system, and check the wear of the digging chain every 250 working hours.

3. Seasonal maintenance

Replace the antifreeze of the railroad ballast cleaning machine before winter, drain the hydraulic system when it is parked for a long time, and perform rust-proof treatment on exposed metal parts.

4. Preventive maintenance

Regularly inspect and record the wear of railroad ballast cleaning machine-wearing parts. Any abnormal operation of equipment must be promptly investigated and handled. Periodically perform major equipment overhauls and thoroughly inspect, replace, or refurbish major components.
