SmartALC – Increases in efficiency thanks to smart technology

Maintenance methods expanded

• Compensation method
  The relative track geometry is used to guide the tamping machine
• Precision method 
  The absolute track geometry is used to guide the tamping machine
• Spot Tamping method
  Particularly suited for turnout tamping machines or universal tamping machines (optional)

Additional features

• AutoSync function
  Using AutoSync, the machine locates faults in the track in an automated process. For the first time, tamping machines can be feed directly with track geometry data from external sources (e.g. the EM100VT).  
  
  Benefit: Locating faults accurately allows efficiency increases of up to 60 %.

• NEW  Overlift function
  Using overlift functions, the system automatically detects short-wave hollows in the track and carries out a controlled overlift in the respective sections.
  
  Benefit: Controlled overlifting increases the track geometry’s durability

• NEW  Touch screen
  The intuitive operation of the system, optimised for the operation via a touch screen, is setting new standards in user-friendliness: SmartALC Touch.¹⁾
  
  Benefit: The convenience of modern tablets for user interaction

• NEW  Obstacle Controller
  Information on obstacles in the working area has an influence on the control of the work units.
  
  Benefit: Damage caused by operating mistakes is a thing of the past.
