Embodiments disclosed herein are directed to a system for removing road material. In an embodiment, the system may include a milling drum and at least one pick mounted on the milling drum. The pick may include polycrystalline diamond at least partially forming one or more working surfaces of the pick.

A road milling machine includes a machine frame, at least three travelling devices, a milling drum, and at least one hydraulic drive system. The hydraulic drive system includes at least one hydraulic pump, at least one hydraulic fixed displacement motor for driving at least one driven travelling device, and one each hydraulic variable displacement motor for driving the remaining travelling devices. A first gearbox is arranged between the fixed displacement hydraulic motor and its associated travelling device. One each second gearbox is arranged between each of the hydraulic variable displacement motors and their associated travelling devices. The transmission ratio of the first gearbox is lower than the transmission ratios of the second gearboxes and/or the displacement volume of the fixed displacement motor is smaller than the maximum displacement volume of the variable displacement motors.

In a self-propelled construction machine (1), in particular road milling machine or surface miner, for working a ground pavement, comprising a milling drum (10), which is mounted in a machine frame, wherein a milling cut develops during milling of the ground pavement with the milling drum (10), wherein the milling drum (10) comprises a first and a second end side, at least a first measuring device, which is arranged next to the first end side of the milling drum (10) and measures the distance of the machine frame relative to the ground pavement next to the first end side of the milling drum (10), at least a second measuring device, which is arranged next to the second end side of the milling drum (10) and measures the distance of the machine frame relative to the ground pavement next to the second end side of the milling drum (10), and a control device (40) for controlling the milling depth, wherein, in a first milling operation, the control device (40) determines the milling depth by means of measurements performed by the first and the second measuring device, it is provided for the following features to be achieved: a second milling operation is detectable by means of the control device (40), in which the milling drum (10) is positioned on an as yet non-milled milling cut that is arranged next to a previously milled milling cut, wherein the control device (40), as soon as the second milling operation is detected, uses measurements performed by at least a third measuring device in lieu of the first and/or the second measuring device for determining the milling depth.

A device for forming a diameter-enlarged hole portion by cutting into a hole that is formed in a workpiece, the device including: a bow jaw including a shaft and a guide, the guide including a distal end surface and an sloped surface, the distal end surface being provided on an opposite side of the guide from the shaft, the sloped surface being sloped from the shaft side of the guide toward the distal end surface side of the guide in a direction away from a center axis of the shaft; and a cutter blade including a cutting portion whose distal end is provided with a cutting edge, the cutting portion being slidable along the sloped surface. The bow jaw further includes a suction passage that includes a flow passage, the flow passage including a suction port that is open at the distal end surface.

A method of adjusting milling properties of a rotor for a milling machine includes accessing the rotor. The rotor includes a drum and a plurality of cutting assemblies, and each cutting assembly includes a tool block, a tool holder, and a cutting bit. The method also includes adjusting a rotational orientation of a plurality of cutting bits and tool holders relative to the corresponding tool blocks, and enclosing the rotor.

The present invention relates to a laying machine for laying at least one flexible casing or tube, cable or wire including: a blade arrangement for making a trench in the ground, a consolidation and laying means being arranged behind the blade arrangement, for clearing and safe-guarding the trench from collapsing while laying at least one flexible casing or tube, cable or wire into the trench. A blade assembly comprising compartments for cooling fluid and air.

A blade assembly comprising compartments for cooling fluid and air.

A cutter bit for a work tool on a machine includes a leading end, conical-shaped tip portion, a rearward, frustoconical-shaped tip portion extending axially rearwardly from the leading end, conical-shaped tip portion, an annular ledge extending radially outwardly from a trailing edge of the rearward, frustoconical-shaped tip portion, a frustoconical-shaped body portion extending axially rearwardly from an outer circumferential edge of the annular ledge, a cylindrical collar portion extending axially rearwardly from a trailing edge of the frustoconical-shaped body portion, and a trailing end, cylindrical-shaped shank portion extending axially rearwardly from the cylindrical collar portion. The cutter bit may also include a plurality of circumferentially-spaced ribs projecting radially outwardly from an outer peripheral surface of at least one of the leading end, conical-shaped tip portion, the rearward, frustoconical-shaped tip portion, or the frustoconical-shaped body portion.

This disclosure relates to a disk cutter (100) for a cutting assembly of a rock excavation machine. The disk cutter comprising a cutter body (102) including at least one light-weighting aperture (110).

An improved sleeve for securing a milling bit to a milling tool base is described. The base may include a lower portion that mates to a surface milling drum and an upper portion with a borehole that accepts the sleeve. The sleeve may include a deflectable rear portion that may include slot tails. When inserting the sleeve into the front of the borehole, the slot tails on the rear of the sleeve may deflect inwardly. The slot tails may then at least partially return to their resting position as they exit the rear of the borehole to lock the sleeve into place. The sleeve may hold a milling bit.
