A milling machine can include a frame; a milling assembly coupled to the frame and including a drum housing and a cutting rotor located within the drum housing, the cutting rotor including a plurality of cutting bits configured to cut into a surface to define a cut surface; and a secondary edge cutter separate from the plurality of cutting bits and located to cut an edge of the cut surface such that the edge of the cut surface cut by the secondary edge cutter defines a sharper edge than the edge of the cut surface cut by the plurality of cutting bits.

Device and corresponding method for processing a hard surfacing. The device comprises a frame to be mounted to a vehicle, a support coupled to the frame, for carrying at least a first rotary processing unit for processing the hard surfacing, and wherein each rotary processing unit comprises a drive motor with a drive shaft, for rotating the rotary processing unit relative to the support; a substantially flat first disc comprising a plurality of processing heads for processing the hard surfacing; a substantially flat second disc coupled via vibration-damping coupling elements to the first disc and extending parallel to the first disc; a substantially flat third disc coupled via one or more deformation-reducing coupling elements to the second disc and extending parallel to the second disc, wherein the first, second and third discs form a stack of discs that is rotatable relative to the support.

A mobile vehicle mounted hydro demolition system comprising ultra-high pressurized water through a rotating nozzle water jet for cutting concrete, including a water supply, a vacuum blower, and a vacuum container that has offset with a dewatering bag so that incoming water can be pumped off as wastewater. A remote control gives an operator immediate adjustments of the rotational speed of the nozzle; the transverse traversing speed of the nozzle; the forward advancement of the vehicle; the number of traverses the head traverses before the vehicle advances its predetermined step; the pressure of the high-pressure pump; the amount of vacuum cfm's the blowers are producing; the steering of the vehicle; and the traversing distance of the rotating nozzle. By manipulating the above parameters the depth of removal is predictable and provides a consistent depth.

The invention relates to a device for processing a hard surfacing, the device comprising a rotatable hammering unit configured to process the hard surfacing under the hammering unit with hammers, the hammering unit comprising a substantially flat first and second disc with a number of hammer wheels on the underside of the second disc, wherein the coupling between the first and second disc is formed by one or more vibration-damping coupling elements. The invention also relates to a method for processing a hard surfacing with a vehicle provided with the device described herein.

A raised pavement markers removal vehicle system and method for the removal of raised pavement markers from a roadway. As the vehicle is driven along a roadway, a grinder unit alongside the forward portion of the vehicle grinds away the raised pavement markers to be removed. A sensing unit senses the relative lateral positions of the grinder unit and the upcoming raised pavement markers to be removed. A controller receives position information from the sensing unit and sends appropriate commands to an alignment adjuster to match the lateral position of the grinder unit to the lateral position of the upcoming pavement markers to be removed. After removal by grinding, the debris from the removed raised pavement markers is swept from the roadway into a sweeper-hopper unit for transport to a suitable unloading place. A warning board mounted at the rear of the sweeper-hopper unit provides a visual warning to other users of the road.

A cutter head comprises a drum body with a plurality of mounting slots defined in an outer face of the drum body. A plurality of cutter bits are removably connected to the drum body in at least a portion of the mounting slots. Filler plates are connected in any mounting slot that does not have a cutter bit connected therein.

Provided is a grinding robot. The grinding robot includes a main rack and a flip bracket pivotally connected to the main rack through a pin shaft. A flip device is further provided between the flip bracket and the main rack and includes a first drive portion and a linkage mechanism. The first drive portion is disposed on the main rack. One end of the linkage mechanism is pivotally connected to the main rack and another end of the linkage mechanism is pivotally connected to the flip bracket. A spacing exists between a pivot point between the flip bracket and the main rack and a pivot point between the flip bracket and the linkage mechanism.
