Harsco Rail TX16 Production and Switch Tamper

Harsco Rail's TX16 production and switch tamper sets a new standard in performance, uptime and cost of ownership. Increasing productivity from start-up to shut down, the TX16 speeds up every aspect of the work day, safely. Engineered with automated hybrid index, the TX16 blends traditional indexing and continuous action to significantly increase productivity. Paired with tie-finding technology, minimal operator input is required on plainline track. The TX16 is also built with a cab deployable/storable reference system, where all reference points can deploy and stow without exiting the cab, expanding the productivity window by reducing setup time and keeping operators safely in the cab.

The integrated high-speed measurement technology, Callisto ProTamp, records at speeds up to 30 mph. The forward mounted cab delivers best-in-class visibility, providing the operator clear views of lifting hooks in a switch and of the track ahead. The TX16 leverages Harsco Rail’s multi-generational product, technology, and service experience – safely delivering high production and accurate track correction within a reliable and versatile tamper.
