Asphalt
road cutter is a machine which removes the existing asphalt surface of
roadways, runways, or other asphalt surface. Asphalt road cutter can be
operated both manually and mechanically. It can be attached with any
tractors or backhoes which gives it maximum downward pressure. It is
suitable for working in tight conditions or where precise cutting is
required. The width and diameter of the cutter varies and depends on the
nature of the work. The asphalt removed by the cutter can be used in hot
mix plants. The maneuverability of asphalt cutter depends on the nature
of the machine in which it is attached.
Whether mounted on a loader bucket, a backhoe bucket or a grader blade,
asphalt road cutter is effective. Machine makes a cut as it moves
forward. When the downward force is applied to the cutter the cutting
wheel rotates and cuts through the asphalt.
Applications
Asphalt road cutter, as the name suggest is mainly applied for cutting
road surfaces, highways, asphalt pavements, pathways etc. The asphalt so
removed are generally used in hot mix plants for its further usage.
