The W 210 XP is the latest model in Wirtgen’s large cold milling machine series and is designed to combine high power with ease of transport. The machine is driven by an emissions compliant diesel delivering 571kW, allowing a high power to weight ratio. Versatility is claimed as the machine has a 2m wide milling drum as standard but can also be fitted with milling drums that are 1.8m or 2.2m wide, if required. The changeover time for the milling drums is also said to be short, due to the design of the mounting system. Other features include a high-mounted cab that offers good visibility, as well as being vibration damped to maximise opertor comfort.


Also designed for versatility is the compact W 150 CFi milling machine. A key feature is the machine its new 1.8m milling drum unit, which offers a wider cut than most other machines in its weight class. Fitting such a wide drum on this class of machine allows contractors to carry out wider milling jobs in the more space-restricted sites seen on urban applications for example, increasing versatility and productivity.

    Many invitations to tender continue to specify that the soil is to be exchanged. However, soil stabilisation is fast becoming a preferred option when it comes to ensuring the load-bearing capacity and quality of soil in preparation for road construction. The targeted addition of stabilising agents can help reduce the moisture content of soil, which is vital for roadworks. Compared to exchanging the entire soil, soil stabilisation is an economical and resource-saving method. Cost savings result from simpl
