Undercutter
Resco Rail offers top-quality undercutting machines designed to enhance track maintenance operations. These machines are engineered to provide precise track profiling, ensuring a smooth and reliable ride for rail systems. Built for durability and efficiency, our undercutters are an essential tool for maintaining the integrity of railroads.
In addition to the undercutting machines, we also provide OEM replacement parts to support the ongoing operation of your equipment. At Resco Rail, we are committed to delivering high-performance machinery and parts to meet the evolving needs of rail operators.
Performance:
Using a chain-driven cutting mechanism, the undercutter excavates ballast beneath the sleepers and transfers it via conveyors for cleaning or disposal. It operates while the track is in place, minimizing the need for complete removal and reducing track outage times. The machine’s precision allows consistent undercut depth across various soil conditions.
INNOVATIONS:
Modern undercutters are integrated with variable-speed drives, laser alignment systems, and interchangeable cutting chains for different ballast types. The conveyor systems are fully articulated, enabling flexible debris handling and streamlined integration with material handling cars or cleaning units.
Key Specifications:
- Chain-type cutter for deep ballast excavation
- Precision conveyor system for material transfer
- Laser and GPS alignment for undercutting depth
- Works without removing track panels
- Interchangeable cutter bars for different ballast profiles
