Cutting technology

Perfectly matched components for increased machine productivity

Results of high quality are the main goal of every construction project.

This applies to road rehabilitation using cold milling machines and cold recyclers as well as to soil stabilization and the extraction of useful minerals using surface miners.

Optimum interaction between the milling drum, toolholder and pick is essential for precise, efficient paving removal.

WIRTGEN is a market leader in cutting technology and offers customers perfectly matched, high-performance cutting systems. WIRTGEN is also constantly developing its cutting technology components further. Such further developments are largely based on practical experience and feedback from our customers.

Picks and cutting tools

Picks and milling tools remove the pavement in the milling process, granulating it into small-sized, reusable material.

Toolholder systems

Maximum structural integrity and wear resistance are vital qualities for the picks to ensure highly precise and productive milling and cutting operations. The picks are firmly anchored in the heavy-duty WIRTGEN toolholder systems.

Reliable intelligence

Wirtgen’s 220 SM 3.8/220 SMi 3.8 surface miner selectively mines raw materials up to a cutting depth of 350 mm and a uniaxial compressive strength of 35 MPa.

Maximum Performance in Soft Rock

Wirtgen’s PCD cutters have a tip made of artificial diamond material and produce an exceedingly uniform milled surface.

PCD Tip: Improved Durability

With a cutting width of 2.2 m and a cutting depth of up to 300 mm, the 220 SM/ 220 SMi can extract raw materials up to a uniaxial compressive strength of 50 MPa.
