As a key component of the milling machine, the milling drum and cutter head have been carefully designed to enable construction users to complete milling operations more accurately, especially in the case of close to the curb and around the well cover. The heavier weight of the milling drum comes from the thicker drum shell steel plate, which can output more powerful milling cutting force. In addition to the standard 500 mm milling drums, there are 7 different sizes of milling drums with milling widths of 300 mm to 600 mm with different pitches, including fine 6x2 mm Milling drum.

Thicker drum shell steel plates, with carefully positioned cutter heads on the milling drum, provide high milling cutting forces and ideal side milling surfaces.

For construction users who carry out daily road maintenance, the milling width needs to be frequently changed during the construction. The rapid replacement of the milling drum can greatly increase the construction efficiency. The rapid replacement system of the milling drum allows the operator to easily change the milling drums of different widths, avoiding the possibility of misassembly in the design and greatly saving the time required to replace the milling drum.

Even if the welt construction operation is still comfortable, standard with a hand-held steering wheel seat

Operational comfort has been fully considered in product design. The operating platform is a shock-absorbing design with an excellent line of sight to observe the milling drum, and all control switches are located at a position within easy reach of the operator during seated operation.
