FAE has launched a new fixed-tooth cold planer attachment for compact excavators.
The RPL/HY is compatible with excavators weighing 5 to 8 metric tons. Its rotor teeth scrape and cut asphalt or concrete roads to prepare them for resurfacing and for recycling the millings. It can also be used for excavation operations.
“As an excavator attachment, the RPL/HY is ideal for use where maneuverability, flexibility and precision are needed, such as in narrow corners, on sidewalks and in service channels,” the company says.
It can mill from 0 to 4.5 inches down and has a cutting width of 12 inches. The working depth is adjusted manually. The planer has a “wide-stroke self-leveling system” to maintain proper head alignment during operation, FAE says.
The attachment requires a hydraulic flow rate of 13 to 24 gallons per minute and pressures of 2,600 to 5,080 psi.
