Plasser American Corporation: Ballast Regulator - PBR2005

Plasser American Corporation


The Plasser Ballast Regulator PBR2005 is a heavy-duty, ballast profiling and dressing machine with the unique ability to plow, profile, and broom in one pass. The PBR2005 is specially designed and constructed for the stringent requirements of high-density, high-tonnage railways. The PBR2005 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 PBR2005 to quickly and efficiently move larger amounts of ballast than conventional ballast regulators. The PBR2005 can easily transfer ballast from both toe lines to both shoulders in a single pass and is designed for working with high-speed tampers. The machine is also available with a double broom for increased productivity.
