The Cold Milling Process:
Planing, also known as cold milling, is a machine cutting process that involves the removal of construction materials in individual layers. This process granulates the materials into reusable secondary aggregates.
Milling operations are performed using machines of varying sizes, ranging from 2.2m wide and over 40 tonnes in weight to 350mm wide and under 3 tonnes in weight.
The milling drum is the core component of every cold milling machine, which is fitted with point-attack cutting tools. As the machine moves forward, the milling drum rotates, granulating the pavement material using its cutting tools. The milling drum rotates against the direction of travel, removing the pavement material from the bottom towards the top.
A fully automated levelling system is utilised to maintain the correct milling depth. In most applications, the milled material is extracted from the milling chamber and loaded onto trucks via a one-stage or two-stage loading conveyor.
