Bomag’s BM 2200/65 Sets Standard for Performance
With its lighter, more compact and highly maneuverable design, the new Bomag BM 2200/65 large planer raises the bar for performance and operating ease and comfort for mills in its class.
A modest, 58-in. milling radius — up to 14 percent smaller than other models — improves machine productivity in the field, increasing efficiency in tight-radius applications like small roundabouts and cul-de-sacs, according to the manufacturer.
Its conveyor offers a 16-ft. discharge height plus larger, 130-degree conveyor slewing angle — 65 degrees to the left/right of center — allowing material to be efficiently discharged into trucks on both sides of the mill. To facilitate transport, the conveyor retracts to a length 23.6 in. shorter than previous designs.
Meeting Tier IV Final/Stage V emissions standards, the mill’s powerful 630 hp (470 kW) engine effectively matches power with milling speed for greater operating efficiency. The slim profile of the advanced Bomag BMS15L quick-change cutting tooth holder system reduces resistance and delivers up to 20 percent fuel savings.
System design extends holder service life to lower costs. Offering a range of milling drum designs and the choice of three different rotor speeds to tailor rotor speed to the job, the BM 2200/65 planer can be used on a wide range of asphalt and concrete milling applications.
Intuitive operation is the hallmark of the new 60,296-lb. BM 2200/65 half-lane mill. To simplify milling control, Bomag Easy Cut technology automatically regulates the height of the rear drive, so the rear of the machine follows the front to its set depth, making the operator’s work simpler. Bomag Easy Level clearly displays grade and slope settings on the large 7-in. display, and settings are quickly changed with minimal screen navigation. Comfort, Visibility, Efficiency
Designed for comfort and efficiency, the BM 2200/65’s vibration-isolated operator’s station delivers comfortable operation from either a seated or standing position. Additional cushioning at the platform’s standing areas help to ensure fatigue-free operation. Stepless platform side-shift up to 7.8 in. provides added visibility to the right cutting edge and side plate, allowing the operator to hold the milling line. Minimal navigation with limited submenus to get to machine parameters delivers intuitive, efficient operation, according to the manufacturer.
The mill’s slim contoured design gives the operator all-round visibility to the machine. Enhanced forward visibility offers operators an unprecedented view of the cutting edge, milling track and the front danger zone around the conveyor for exceptional milling precision. A flat rear design offers an improved view of the area behind the mill for increased operating safety.
The standard water spray and dust extraction systems, complete with conveyor shrouding, efficiently removes fine particulate matter from the machine. Removing up to 80 percent more fine dust particles smaller than 10 microns in size, the optional Bomag ion dust shield meets the most stringent fine dust regulations.
With all key machine service points easily accessible, routine maintenance is completed quickly and efficiently. All filters can be conveniently reached from the operator’s platform through the wide-opening engine hood, as are the fill ports for fuel and AdBlue.
Large left- and right-hand service panels provide simple accessibility to the machine’s auxiliary drive and milling gear, while engine service points are easily accessed from both above and below.

HAMM from page 41 comply with the statutory regulations.
One of the flagship projects to date is the construction of a geothermal system. It has been heating and cooling the administration building since 2013, yielding savings of around 86 t of CO2 per year.
At the plant in Tirschenreuth, the energy demand for lighting was almost halved in 2019 by switching to LED lights. This also saves over 80 t of carbon dioxide every year. Optimizations in the compressed air cycle also reduce the electricity/energy demand by 50,000 kWh. That corresponds to close to 5 t of CO2.
All Divisions Under
Magnifying Glass
Since 2018, an environmental protection manager has been advancing the further minimization of raw material and energy consumption, waste, packaging and emissions of solvents (VOCs) and placing all divisions under the magnifying glass. In this way, Hamm is improving its ecological footprint through large-scale measures as well as numerous finely detailed projects.
At the moment, the energy demand for heating also is being drastically reduced, as well as the consumption of fresh water in production. There also are very high standards regarding waste water and low noise emissions from the plant. Alongside this, paperless production is to be introduced in the near future.
Recycling, Recuperation
Waste is also a key focus.
“By implementing numerous individual measures, by 2023 we will have reduced the waste per produced machine by approximately 20 percent compared with 2019,” said Plant Manager Dirk Pressgott.
In production, an innovative painting process reduces the amount of paints and solvents used while offering the same paint quality. Hamm also recycles the solvents used for cleaning the painting systems.
Internal logistics also saves energy by optimizing routes and also uses quiet electric forklift trucks. Shortly before the rollers leave the plant, the brake energy is recovered via recuperation at the test bench, which all machines pass.
Intelligent Solutions
Instead of Materials
In general, “intelligent solutions instead of materials” applies in purchasing and logistics at Hamm. Special transport racks therefore render much of the packaging superfluous. And, due to a 4PL strategy, there are virtually no empty runs when supplying purchased parts and semi-finished products. In addition to these measures, suppliers are selected based on their environmental certification and training of employees with a view to environmental protection.
Through dialog with the design and production departments, Hamm also has been continuously reducing excess packaging and optimizing transport capacity for many years. Recycled plastics also are used wherever possible for constructing rollers.
Environmentally-Friendly
Products, Compaction Solutions
With regard to products, Hamm follows the objective of “developing lowconsumption machinery and machine control systems that ensure an efficient and, therefore, resource-friendly work process on the construction site,” said Axel Römer, head of research and development.
Specific examples of this are compaction with oscillation, which emits little noise and conserves resources; process optimization through digital tools and networking; and consumption-reducing technologies in the area of the power train.
Hamm rollers also can be operated with non-fossil fuels such as biodiesel or hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO). Today, many machines can already work with these types of fuels, and applications are being expanded. Biodegradable hydraulic oils also are part of the standard supply range.
Environmentally-Friendly
Operation, Service for
Long Machine Life
Durable products are especially sustainable. This is where Hamm’s telematics system comes in to play, as the service life of the rollers is extended through regular maintenance — and with optimal availability. The long service life of Hamm rollers also is reflected in the spare part philosophy. Hamm still supplies customers with spare parts for all models ever built. Moreover, most spare parts can be ordered separately — not just in assemblies.
Sustainable Shipping
Hamm relies on sustainable materials when shipping spare parts. Films and plastic are avoided as far as possible, and polystyrene packing peanuts are taboo. Instead, Hamm packages spare parts in cardboard; packing paper acts as a fill material and padding. Moreover, Hamm receives a large portion of spare parts and wear parts already ready to ship with the corresponding packaging. Materialintensive repackaging — quite common in the sector — is therefore not required.
Wave Goodbye to
Paper Consumption
A shift also can be seen in machine documentation — it has been completely moved to data carriers. In its inhouse documentation center, Hamm prints documents only upon request based on the “print on demand” principle. It has therefore been possible to reduce the need for paper by more than 70 percent.
