This way we did not have to lift up and re-position and could continue with a single pass at the full width of the lane. Considering a highway lane is 3.7 m wide and the milling drums are 2.2m wide, it was simple math. This enabled us to make a single cut and not have to pick up a machine several times and back up to square up the lane passes.
Ultimately anytime you pick up a machine and have to reset being a milling machine or paving machine there is a potential for bumps and dips which obviously contradict the whole premise of maintaining a smooth surface.
The other positive is that we are not impeding the production of the paving machine behind us by having to wait for a milling machine to back up so the continuous motion is another factor associated with maintaining a good ride.
This methodology in conjunction with a SmoothRide technology gives us the best chance at providing a high-quality product that is being well received by the travelling public.
