Dual Anchor Adjuster Spreader
DASP Gen 4
The Dual Anchor Adjuster Spreader is a fully enclosed-cab machine designed to work both rails at once or independently. With just a tooling change and module swap, it can either squeeze anchors or spread anchors using a tie-out configuration or by using the rail plate in tie in configuration. Built for railroad track work, the machine combines operator comfort, excellent visibility, and flexible functionality in one platform.
- Two joysticks control each workhead independently
- High-performance workheads provide strong anchor spread or squeeze forces, using a robust rail clamping system
- Quick change workhead tooling to allow fast switching between anchor spreading type (by plate or tie out) or anchor squeezing
- Many components are interchangeable with the Dual Anchor Spreader (DAS) or Dual Anchor Adjuster (DAA)
- Excellent 360-degree visibility fore and aft when track traveling
- The MD4 control system can easily be changed from one workhead setup to another. Also used to help troubleshoot machine maintenance issues
- Dynamic touchscreen interface for detailed in-depth machine diagnostics and settings controls
- Advance load-sense pump controls allow for NON-DEF engine power, saving costs and being more environmentally friendly
- Easy touchscreen controls with workhead adjustments from the operator seat, saving time and offering a safer way to make machine adjustments
- Onboard electrical system diagnostics to simplify troubleshooting and lessen downtime
- Remote program updates and remote troubleshooting with built-in telematics allow our technicians to help troubleshoot and lessen downtime (within cell range)
- Smart hydraulic valves with self-diagnostics and maintenance screens increase flexibility, reliability, and reduce parts inventory by using the same control valve for every function
- Equipped with a center H-Frame turntable that can rotate the machine 180 degrees in the opposite direction
- Accessible workhead components for routine maintenance
- Smart cylinder for consistent, easy-to-adjust workhead height control
- Selective work/travel modes
- Seating Capacity: 3 (one operator, two passengers)
- Travel Speed: 24 mph (~39 km/h); chain-driven propulsion system
