Of the milling machine's many features, Schook appreciates its versatility.  In addition to removing deteriorated asphalt surfaces to be recycled and re-surfaced, the BM 2000/60 can be used to cut subgrade material.  With a maximum milling depth of over 12 inches, the BM 2000/60 can cut to the subgrade level, allowing Posen to adjust the road's level to meet Department of Transportation specifications.

Posen is also considering using the BM 2000/60 on concrete bridges.  The machine's precise capabilities will allow it to be used to plane high spots on concrete bridge decks, providing a smoother surface for vehicles.

The BM 2000/60 features an INTEL-PLANER automatic depth control system, which provides optimal consistency while working over changing grades and slopes.  INTEL-PLANER allows the operator to dial in the appropriate grade, and a microprocessor automatically cuts to the desired depth as it moves along the asphalt surface.
