The MFS 100, MFS 100 S and MFS 40 material conveyor and silo wagons transport ballast, spoil and FPL for ballast cleaning and formation remediation work. Their main feature is the continuous conveying, storage and unloading process. The wagons also achieve controlled unloading of the construction material onto the adjacent track (construction track), for example, onto railway wagons with a smaller capacity.
Functional Characteristics
Assembly of any number of MFS wagons to form a train with the respective required storage capacity
Start of the filling process at the front wagon (in working direction), the following wagons act as a conveyor line
Simultaneous emptying of all MFS wagons by swivelling out the unloading belts
Metered unloading to the adjacent track possible (construction track)
New ballast added in combination with the RM 900 S and RPM-RS-900
FPL added in combination with the RPM-RS-900
Ballast spread evenly by means of the MFS 100 S ballast spreader (transports ballast from the front conveyor belt for distribution into the four hydraulically adjustable ballast chutes and flaps)
