My nephew sent some great shots of Asphalt Milling in downtown Calgary. They are a well coordinated team for sure! Lots of activity!
I hope you enjoy the video.
Thank you,

You are correct, a good SSL can make or break a milling crew.

@@markparr6947…if this is a Municipal job, which it looks like, it’ll have been tendered and part of that process usually involves Unionized workers who get paid by the hour. It’s quite possible that this outfit would do this work on a consistent basis for the City. Anyone who’d come in a lot cheaper wouldn’t have the equipment or manpower this company is using. It’s a nice operation to watch though.

What are those two large tubes that drape down from the conveyor to the body at the front?

@AndrewCZ47 Жыл бұрын

Vacuum. Dust from the milling drum and conveyors inside the machine gets sucked in, sprayed with water and dropped on the conveyor that loads the trucks.

@blacksheep9734 Жыл бұрын

They are a part of the dust vacuum system, pulls dust from the drum housing and puts the dust into the conveyor

So they're recycling the same asphalt they dig up from the road n lay it back in other parts of the town?

Where do the 12 footers start, price wise?

@azz404607 Жыл бұрын

in my place, we have a miller twice this size...but super slow....and the surface are not as smooth as in the video...maybe because of the operator skills

Wait, that city has money to mill it's asphalt and replace it? Wow! What Utopia you live in! 😂 (this comes from the UK with plenty of jealousy, where roads are getting worse year by year...)
