BOMAG launches enhanced 600-hp-class cold planers

BOMAG has reintroduced its 600-hp-class BOMAG 2200/60 cold planer with a Tier 4 Final, Stage V engine and multiple productivity enhancing design elements. The re-engineered milling chamber improves the capabilities of the front material depressor for increased performance, lower wear and longer component life. Additionally, a new inner scraper design and improved compartment seal help to prevent material loss.

The BM 2200/60 offers an 86.3-inch cutting width and features a proprietary 15 milling tooth holder system which can extended service life by up to 30 percent over other cutting systems. The tapered tooth retainer claw has a low-resistance profile that delivers more cutting power with less wear. A quick-change cutting tool design reduces the time required to change a full set of teeth by up to 75 percent over conventional systems.

Optimized conveyor roller placement improves material flow on the new vehicle for more efficient removal of millings from the cutting chamber. Improvements to the 31.5-inch gathering and loading belts help to increase service life. The system’s new integrated dust extraction system helps to improve the working environment for the operators.

New hydraulic hose placement and routing improve service life, reduce thermal aging and increase machine uptime. Integration of smart cylinders that provide internal measurements remove external sensors and the inherent risk of damage. An integrated service platform simplifies and significantly reduces the time for daily maintenance procedures, further improving machine uptime.
