BOMAG is offering a productive new recycling machine

BOMAG is offering two new recycling machines to meet the needs of customers. The RS500 has innovative features including a cab that can be raised to improve operator visibility while working, and lowered for transport from site to site. Another important feature of the RS500 recycler is its ability to offset the cutter drum by 300mm to either side. This allows the machine to work close to an edge or kerb and also means that there is no need to turn around on sites with restricted space. The machine is equip

Increased output and versatility are claimed by BOMAG for its new RS500 and MPH 364
172 BOMAG is offering two new recycling machines to meet the needs of customers. The RS500 has innovative features including a cab that can be raised to improve operator visibility while working, and lowered for transport from site to site. Another important feature of the RS500 recycler is its ability to offset the cutter drum by 300mm to either side. This allows the machine to work close to an edge or kerb and also means that there is no need to turn around on sites with restricted space. The machine is equipped with BOMAG’s innovative Flexmix recycling technology, which offers automatic operation and power comes from a diesel delivering 373kW.

The new MPH 364 recycler and soil stabiliser features an operating weight of 17tonnes and a working width of 2.005m. At the moment, there is no comparable machine available for this application anywhere in the world in this weight category. Its compact design and powerful 268.5kW engine suit the MPH 364 to small projects, such as car parks, minor roads and paths.

It has a rear-mounted milling rotor for manoeuvrability, while the driver has a good view of the relevant work areas around the machine and can negotiate accurately around obstacles. The machine can also be used in larger road construction projects. Good ergonomics and ease of operation make the machine more versatile still.

    BOMAG is extending its milling machine range with new large, medium and compact machines. The new top-of-the-range milling machines are the BM2000/75 and BM2200/75, with cutting widths of 2m and 2.2m respectively. These machines can cut to depths of 350mm and are said to have more power than rival models in their class due to the 560kW engine. However the machines are also said to be economical on fuel and offer lower running costs than earlier generation machines of a similar size. A key feature is the new

    FAE says that its dedicated soil stabiliser is now well-accepted and can work to depths down to 500mm. Because the unit is towed by large tractors, it is suitable for smaller and more compact sites where self-powered stabilisers would be difficult to use.

    As the units are towed by large tractors, the company also distributes the machines through a number of tractor dealers, according to Giorgio Carera, chief executive of FAE in North America. “That’s the kind of distribution we use.”

    Two major manufacturers, Caterpillar and Wirtgen, are introducing new milling machines. Both firms say that these new, high-production units will offer increased output compared with earlier generation equipment. From Caterpillar come the new PM820, PM822 and PM825 machines, which are half-lane milling machines able to handle full-depth removal of asphalt and concrete pavements in a single pass. The firm claims that these units are highly productive and highly manoeuvrable. In operation the machines weig
