Road planning is an important step in the maintenance and building of roads, assuring a smooth and even surface for safe and efficient mobility. Simex, a hydraulic attachment manufacturing leader, provides a selection of PL road planers to fulfill a variety of operational requirements. This blog delves into the characteristics and specifications of various Simex PL road planer models to assist you in selecting the best attachment for your unique needs.
Simex PL 2000 Road Planer
The Simex PL 2000 Road Planer is a powerful tool for large-scale road planning projects. It has an oil flow requirement of 130-200 liters per minute and a pressure of 310 bar, allowing it to handle the most demanding duties. With a working width of 2000 mm and a depth range of 0-130 mm, this device is suitable for removing huge volumes of material quickly. The PL 2000 has a self-leveling system that maintains a constant planing depth, resulting in a uniform surface finish over large areas. This makes it the preferred choice for large-scale road construction sites where speed and efficiency are critical.
Simex PL 1500 Road Planer
The Simex PL 1500 Road Planer is a flexible attachment designed for medium to large planing operations. It requires an oil flow of 130-200 liters per minute and has a 1500 mm working width. One of its most notable characteristics is the spray system, which includes a tank built into the frame and aids in the management of dust and debris, resulting in a cleaner workplace. Furthermore, the hydraulic side shift enables accurate lateral adjustments during operation, while the separate right-left depth adjustment provides flexibility in obtaining the appropriate planning depth. The PL 1500 keeps milled material in the work area, decreasing cleanup time and improving overall productivity.
Simex PL 1200 Road Planer
The Simex PL 1200 Road Planer is intended for tasks that demand a balance of efficiency and precision. It has an oil flow demand of 120-190 liters per minute and runs at a width of 1200mm. This model, like the bigger PL 2000, has a self-leveling system that ensures a constant planing depth, resulting in a smooth and consistent surface. The movable transverse tilt with the damper enables the planer to adapt to surface irregularities, resulting in smoother operation. Furthermore, the built-in spray system successfully minimizes dust, making the PL 1200 ideal for medium-sized jobs that prioritize both performance and cleanliness.
Simex PL 1000 Road Planer
For jobs requiring agility and ease of use, the Simex PL 1000 Road Planer is a great choice. It requires an oil flow of 110-170 liters per minute and has a working width of 1000mm. Weighing 1,090 kg, this model is intended for slightly smaller projects than the PL 1200 and PL 1500, but it does not sacrifice planning performance. Its compactness and weight make it easy to handle and operate, making it ideal for operations in tighter or more constrained spaces while maintaining high planning quality.
Simex PL 75.20 Road Planer
The Simex PL 75.20 Road Planer is designed for particular, thorough planning jobs. With an operational weight of 1,050 kg, it has an oil flow range of 110-170 liters per minute and a pressure of 300 bars. This type has a working width of 750 mm and a depth range of 0-170 mm, with a maximum depth of 230 mm when using a narrower width. These qualities make the PL 75.20 highly adaptable, and suited for a variety of road maintenance activities requiring varying depths and precision, making it a dependable solution for a wide range of planning needs.
Simex PL 60.20 Road Planer
The Simex PL 60.20 Road Planer is designed for smaller, more detailed planning jobs, providing precision and control. It has a working width of 600 mm and a depth range of 0-170 mm, with a maximum depth of 230 mm when employing a narrower width.
With an oil flow of 100-150 liters per minute and a weight of 950 kg, this model is suitable for comprehensive and exact planning. Its shorter breadth gives versatility, letting it easily handle smaller areas and more delicate duties, making it ideal for road repair operations requiring precision.
Simex PL 50.20 Road Planer
The Simex PL 50.20 Road Planer is designed for projects that require the operator's highest level of safety and visibility. With an operational weight of 900 kg and a working breadth of 500 mm, it offers optimum control and precision. Its depth range of 0-170 mm makes it suited for a wide range of activities, from basic maintenance to more extensive planing work. Its design prioritizes operator safety and visibility, making it an ideal choice for locations where these aspects are critical to successful and safe operation.
Simex PL 45.20 HP Road Planer
The Simex PL 45.20 HP Road Planer, which is built for very particular and detailed planning jobs, completes the choices. This type weighs 860 kg and has a working width of 450 mm. It runs at depths ranging from 0 to 170 mm. It features a floating transverse tilt with a damper for greater adaptability to surface irregularities, as well as a spray system with an integrated tank for optimum dust control. The hydraulic side shift feature allows for accurate lateral adjustments, making the PL 45.20 HP perfect for applications that demand great precision and flexibility in road planning.
