It takes the labor out of the ballast placement process, optimizes the amount of ballast you need to place, and cuts down on the amount of track time you need to devote to the process.<\/p>\n<p>GateSync relies on pre-dump survey from our BallastSaver<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> ballast assessment system. Data from BallastSaver scans are loaded into GateSync, which synchronize the opening and closing of gates on your ballast cars to place ballast exactly where it\u2019s needed while avoiding crossings, switches and other \u201cno dump\u201d zones. From 2 cars to 50, GateSync provides continuous ballast unloading at up to 10 miles per hour, making light work of even the longest stretches of ballast unloading.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;45px&#8221;]<div class=\"mkd-tabs mkd-horizontal-tab variable mkd-column-5 clearfix\">\n    <ul class=\"mkd-tabs-nav\">\n                    <li>\n            <h3 class=\"mkd-tab-title\">\n            <a href=\"#tab-features\">\n                <span class=\"mkd-icon-frame\"><\/span>\n\n                <!--<span class=\"mkd-advanced-tab-text-after-icon\">-->\n                Features                <!--<\/span>-->\n\n            <\/a>\n            <\/h3>\n\n\n            <\/li>\n                    <li>\n            <h3 class=\"mkd-tab-title\">\n            <a href=\"#tab-specifications\">\n                <span class=\"mkd-icon-frame\"><\/span>\n\n                <!--<span class=\"mkd-advanced-tab-text-after-icon\">-->\n                Specifications                <!--<\/span>-->\n\n            <\/a>\n            <\/h3>\n\n\n            <\/li>\n                    <li>\n            <h3 class=\"mkd-tab-title\">\n            <a href=\"#tab-video\">\n                <span class=\"mkd-icon-frame\"><\/span>\n\n                <!--<span class=\"mkd-advanced-tab-text-after-icon\">-->\n                Video                <!--<\/span>-->\n\n            <\/a>\n            <\/h3>\n\n\n            <\/li>\n                    <li>\n            <h3 class=\"mkd-tab-title\">\n            <a href=\"#tab-accessories\">\n                <span class=\"mkd-icon-frame\"><\/span>\n\n                <!--<span class=\"mkd-advanced-tab-text-after-icon\">-->\n                Accessories                <!--<\/span>-->\n\n            <\/a>\n            <\/h3>\n\n\n            <\/li>\n                    <li>\n            <h3 class=\"mkd-tab-title\">\n            <a href=\"#tab-data-sheet\">\n                <span class=\"mkd-icon-frame\"><\/span>\n\n                <!--<span class=\"mkd-advanced-tab-text-after-icon\">-->\n                Data Sheet                <!--<\/span>-->\n\n            <\/a>\n            <\/h3>\n\n\n            <\/li>\n            <\/ul><!-- .mkd-tabs-nav -->\n\n    <div class=\"mkd-tab-container\" id=\"tab-features-293\" >[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Automated delivery, 2.4 GHz Zigbee protocol and self forming, self healing mesh network technology.<\/li>\n<li>Two way communication, computer-car-computer.<\/li>\n<li>Rail time diagnostics from the car to control panel of the software or to the remote control device<\/li>\n<li>Ability to add sensors and check status, ingest sensor data into software (improve precision, accuracy, flexibility, time of preparation of the operation, reports, etc.)<\/li>\n<li>The system is bolster with EMI protection that does not drastically limit signal strength<\/li>\n<li>Automated operation delivers ballast at 10-11 mph<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<\/div><div class=\"mkd-tab-container\" id=\"tab-specifications-907\" >[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Two tamper resistant solar panel per car<\/li>\n<li>24-volt electric hydraulic pump with standard ATF Fluid<\/li>\n<li>Valve panel assembly on each car with 16 ports to accommodate all eight double acting cylinders<\/li>\n<li>Hydraulic cylinders are rated for 3000 psi, operate around 2000 psi, and the eight cylinders per kit accommodate all eight gates.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<\/div><div class=\"mkd-tab-container\" id=\"tab-video-728\" >[vc_video link=&#8221;https:\/\/vimeo.com\/1121304877?share=copy&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/div><div class=\"mkd-tab-container\" id=\"tab-accessories-299\" >[vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4>Ballast Plow<\/h4>\n<p>Loram\u2019s Ballast Plow eliminates extra time and machinery during ballast delivery. The higher grade steel used for plow face to ensure long wear life and 100 degree V shape encourages ballast flow away from the center instead of going over the plow. The linkage and hydraulic design ensures positive contact between plow and rail, even with excessive elevation changes in the rail or car lean. The plow uses a \u201cno maintenance required\u201d hard chrome plated ball joints and a float mode that allows the plow to ride over obstacles with no \u201chold down pressure\u201d. It automatically engages the locking system with redundant spring engagement.<\/p>\n<p>Loram&#8217;s plow is a one man operation and can be operated from either side of the car with simple three button controls automatically ensures that only one plow is pressed to the rail. The skid plated design does not damage the rails and is designed to be easily integrated with the existing Solaris power unit. It is a lightweight system at only 2000 pounds and only requires 700 psi to operate. The plow can be safely stowed for transit and has optimal space to safely store using a pair of train jacks, in case of a dead hydraulic system.[\/vc_column_text]<\/div><div class=\"mkd-tab-container\" id=\"tab-data-sheet-756\" >[vc_single_image image=&#8221;21051&#8243; img_size=&#8221;medium&#8221; onclick=&#8221;custom_link&#8221; img_link_target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; link=&#8221;https:\/\/loram.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/GateSync-Brochure-2.pdf&#8221;][vc_column_text]Downloadable brochure[\/vc_column_text]<\/div><\/div>[vc_gallery interval=&#8221;3&#8243; images=&#8221;8411,21030,8369,21037&#8243; img_size=&#8221;1800&#215;900&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1764086070218{margin-top: 2rem !important;}&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<div class=\"mkd-elements-holder mkd-responsive-mode-768\" ><div class=\"mkd-elements-holder-item \"  >\n\t<div class=\"mkd-elements-holder-item-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"mkd-elements-holder-item-content mkd-elements-holder-custom-285167\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t[vc_empty_space height=&#8221;0&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1629393075785{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;]\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row content_width=&#8221;grid&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_widget_sidebar sidebar_id=&#8221;sidebar&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;3\/4&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;] GateSync The GateSync\u00ae software solution independently operates the remote controlled gates on your existing ballast cars to automate ballast delivery.
