WIRTGEN cutting drums for surface miners

For any given application, we strive to optimize cutting performance while maximizing life and minimizing operating costs. To this end, we come up with robust dimensioning of the cutting drum and toolholder system based on the stone type, stone hardness, and material screen line.

Different configurations of cutting drums and cutting tools are available for each machine type, depending on the material to be mined. Based on material properties and stone hardness, WIRTGEN experts work closely with the customer to arrive at an optimal solution with regard to cross-section diameter, tool spacing of the cutting tools, holder webs and other special accessories intended for wear resistance.
