The Plasser Ballast Regulator PBR550 is a heavy-duty, industrial-quality ballast regulating and dressing machine. The PBR550 is specially designed and constructed for the stringent requirements of high density, high tonnage railways. The PBR550 utilizes design concepts and components that have been well proven worldwide. The machine is constructed for ease of operation and maintenance. An extremely powerful drive system, fully adjustable X-type ballast plow, and unique shoulder plows allow the PBR550 to quickly and efficiently move larger amounts of ballast. The PBR550 can easily transfer ballast from toe line to shoulder in either direction. Its ballast broom conveyor allows excess ballast to be distributed directly to either or both shoulders. Excess ballast can also be loaded via a hydraulically operated elevator conveyor into the machine's self-contained, 5-cubic-yard hopper. The excess ballast can then be quickly transported and unloaded at locations where ballast is most needed.
