Top performance in the 50 cm class What counts is the area output in practice The area output in practice reveals all: in the small milling machine segment with working widths up to 50 cm, the W 50 DC is the most powerful machine on the market today. Yet the idealized performance curve only reflects the theoretical performance: influences which reduce the performance – such as obstructions due to traffic, delays while waiting for trucks, non-contiguous milling areas and fixtures (hydrants, manhole covers, etc.) – are taken into account by a special factor. This factor, which varies between 0.7...

Change milling drums in next to no time Quick, simple, ergonomic First it is a 50 cm wide fine milling machine to restore skid resistance of a road pavement, then it is needed to cut a 20 cm wide trench. Two machines would normally be needed for these jobs, but not with the W 50 DC – all that is needed here is a change of milling drum. And that is something that is done in a jiffy: open the door of the drum compartment, unscrew the connections securing the fine milling drum and pull the drum off its shaft so that the 20 cm wide milling drum can be fitted. Then adjust the scraper blade to the...
