Large milling machines have a milling drum positioned centrally beneath the machine and a two-part front-loading system. Trucks can be loaded quickly and flexibly via the slewing and height-adjustable discharge conveyor. A variety of different milling drums and milling drum assemblies are available to cater to the wide array of milling tasks. They can be exchanged quickly and easily to suit the application. The range of applications extends from wide-scale complete removal down to a depth of 35 cm in a single pass to the rehabilitation of concrete pavements and airport runways as well as fine milling to improve pavement skid resistance.
