| Step | Action | |------|--------| | 1 | Tamping machine completes tamping cycle and moves ahead. | | 2 | DTS rolls onto stabilized section (coupled or independent). | | 3 | Operator lowers stabilizer unit onto rails. | | 4 | Vertical load applied (ramp-up over 5–10 s). | | 5 | Vibration starts at low amplitude, increases to target. | | 6 | Machine crawls forward at 0.5–2 km/h. | | 7 | Real-time settlement monitored; vibration stops if track stable. | | 8 | Unit lifted, machine moves to next segment. |
The DTS must comply with:
