Wirtgen says that its new W 210 XF large milling machine is highly efficient, and suits duties in challenging jobs. High-performance and efficiency are claimed and the machine can be used for milling widths of 2-2.5m and to depths of 330mm. The W 210 XF is said to suit a range of duties such as surface layer rehabilitation, complete pavement removal and fine milling work.
Three Wirtgen cold milling machines – two of type W 210 and one of type W 200i – and two Wirtgen soil stabilizers of type WR 2000 demonstrate their productivity and reliability at Alghero-Fertilia Airport in Sardinia.
Located roughly 8 km northwest of the city of Alghero, Alghero-Fertilia Airport (IATA: AHO, ICAO: LIEA) is one of three commercial airports on the Italian island, along with Cagliari Elmas and Olbia.
Built as a military airport in the late 1930s, Alghero-Fertilia still occasionally serve
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
Wirtgen’s HT22 quick-change toolholder system is said to ensure maximum milling performance and cost -fficient operation.
A longer service life and fewer downtimes are achieved through various HT22 features, such as the significantly enlarged contact areas between the upper and lower parts of the toolholder system.
Consequently, the high cutting forces are reliably transferred to the lower part of the system, substantially increasing the useful life of the milling drum. A larger shank cross-section a
