Model performance

The modern Wirtgen W2000 road milling machine has technical characteristics that meet all norms and standards and has high performance thanks to the motor and automatic speed control. The machine itself determines at what speed it should move during operation; the harder the coating, the slower the speed. Sound insulation of the cabin has a beneficial effect on the driver’s work, allowing him to carry out the work process in comfortable conditions. The operator's seats can slide to the sides, or move to the edges of the cab space to increase operator visibility.

Device

The main components of the Wirtgen W2000 cutter are the milling chamber and the milling drum. The latter is located in the middle of the car, between the wheeled trolleys. The drum is driven mechanically, power from the power plant is transmitted to it through a belt drive. The chamber constantly contains water, which is pumped using a pump. It is needed to lower the temperature of the cutters, which guarantees a long service life. The asphalt coating is removed using a cutting part, enters a chamber, and then it is transferred through conveyors to a truck.

The advantage of the Wirtgen 2000 cutter is also the installation of leveling systems (two-sided), control and self-diagnosis. The interaction of these systems makes it possible to fully control the work process, the condition of the machine and the quality of milling.
