BOMAG BM 2200/65 Conveyor

Page 48 • September 7, 2022 • www.constructionequipmentguide.com • Paving Section • Construction Equipment Guide Bomag’s New BM 2200/65 Conveyor Sets High Standard for Performance

The Bomag BM 2200/65's 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.

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 quickchange 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 allround 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.

The National Asphalt Pavement Association (NAPA) announced the winners and finalists of its 2021 Operational Excellence Awards.

“NAPA members strive for excellence beyond constructing high-quality asphalt pavements. The two categories of the Operational Excellence Awards — Asphalt Operations Safety Innovation and Community Involvement — recognize a company’s commitment to operations that make them good contractors, good industry ambassadors and good neighbors,” said NAPA 2021 Chairman James Winford.

The 2021 winners and finalists honored include:

Asphalt Operations Safety Innovation Award Winners: • Kokosing Construction Co. Inc. of

Fredericktown, Ohio, for asphalt cement loader • Superior Paving Corp. of Gainesville,

Va., for portable AEDs

Community Involvement Award Winners: • Callanan Cares at Callanan Industries

Inc., A CRH Co., of Albany, N.Y., for Callanan Cares • Ajax Paving Industries of Florida LLC of North Venice,

Fla., for Pave it Forward

The Operational Excellence Awards honor leaders in the asphalt pavement industry for excellence in community outreach with the Community Involvement Award and innovative safety practices with the Asphalt Operations Safety Innovations. The Operational Excellence Awards are a counterpart to NAPA's annual Quality in Construction Awards, which recognize asphalt paving jobs completed in line with best practices and standards known to yield high-quality asphalt

“The two categories of the Operational Excellence Awards ... recognize a company’s commitment to operations that make them good contractors, good industry ambassadors and good neighbors.” James Winford NAPA pavements. The NAPA Awards Program recognizes and encourages continuous improvement in all aspects of paving and asphalt operations.

Sheldon G. Hayes Awards Recognizes Highest Quality Highway Pavements

The National Asphalt Pavement Association (NAPA) announced the winner and finalists of the 2021 Sheldon G. Hayes Award for excellence in construction of an asphalt pavement.

The award, bestowed annually since 1971, recognizes the country’s highest quality highway pavements.

Eurovia Atlantic Coast, dba Northeast Paving Co. LLC, and the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation — District 12 were named the winner of the 2021 Sheldon G. Hayes Award for their work on I-70 in Washington, Pa.

Finalists for the award were Seaboard Construction Co. and the Georgia Department of Transportation for I-95 in Camden County; and Shelly & Sands Inc. and the Ohio Department of Transportation District 5 for I-70 in Muskingum County.

The Sheldon G. Hayes Award winner and finalists are determined through a two-year evaluation process. All highway pavement projects using more than 50,000 tons of asphalt are eligible for consideration.

Initially, the project must win a Quality in Construction (QIC) Award, which is determined by numerical scores given by an independent pavement engineer on the basis of how well the contractor met specifications and achieved density on the finished pavement. All pavements that meet a benchmark figure earn the QIC Award.

The year after a project wins a QIC Award, it is eligible for consideration for the Sheldon G. Hayes Award. The top-ranked projects from each year are tested for smoothness, and then visually inspected by an independent pavement consultant with many years of experience in the industry.

This year, the evaluator praised all the candidates for their high-quality construction practices, which resulted in smooth, safe and durable pavements.

At NAPA’s 67th Annual Meeting in Scottsdale, Ariz., the winner and each finalist were presented with an award for their achievement.

“The asphalt pavement industry is committed to building quality pavements that deliver high performance and drivability to the public,” said James Winford, NAPA 2021 chairman.

The award is named for Sheldon G. Hayes, a founder of NAPA and the association’s first chairman. Hayes spent his entire career striving for better construction techniques and improvements in the quality of asphalt pavements.
