BHEL has developed Ballast Cleaning Machine (BCM) with collaboration.The technical
details of the BCM to be manufactured are in line with IR specification having ballast cleaning
capacity on turnouts also. The BCM is supposed to run on broad gauge & negotiate 10 degree
curve. BCM has to be capable of excavating ballast bed up to a depth of 900mm below the rail
top and entire width of ballast section. The width of the ballast section from mainline track
centre may vary from 2700mm for plain track to 4800mm for turnouts. The machine is
supposed to deep screen both left hand / right hand turnouts when approached from either
direction i.e. from the switch or the crossing side, depending upon the site conditions. No
turning of machine should be required for this. Indian Railways desires the machine to be
capable to return the ballast sizes from 65mm maximum to 25mm minimum to the bed. The
machine is required to be capable of cleaning, grading and profiling a minimum 550 cubic meter
of ballast on plain track in an hour of working including hard, encrusted and caked ballast.
