6700 Product Improvements

Rear Inclinometer Kit

inclinometer2
The rear inclinometer, located at the back of the 6700 Production/Switch Tamper, plots the super elevation of the track immediately behind the machine. The unit provides helpful information to the operator concerning how much super elevation correction is required in the curve and judge whether ballast conditions are adequate for the correction needed.
