Soil Stabilizer / Road Recycler : REF / 5 / 2014


 


Soil stabilizers and road recyclers (engineering vehicles) were once very similar machines, however, they are now very specialised pieces of road making machinery and have developed into very different machines. Other terms that are sometimes used are: road profiler, road reclaimer, road miller, road planer and pavement profiler
Soil stabiliser
A soil stabilizer machine. The machine blends existing pavement with lime that has been spread on the surface. Water comes in via the big pipe at the front.
A soil stabiliser is a construction vehicle with a powered metal drum that has rows of mixing blades or paddles. It blends soil, a binder agent (usually Portland cement or lime) and water together with paddles in the mixing chamber and usually does not cut or mill hard or very thick asphalt or concrete. Modern soil stabilisers are more powerful and often use carbide tips instead of paddles. In this way most soil stabilisers have become much more like road recyclers where they can also blend the old road surface in the mixture.
A soil stabiliser mixes a low strength concrete and performs a similar function to a concrete mixer except that it happens on the ground. Some modern stabilisers use tungsten carbide tips similar to a road pavement mill but a soil stabiliser would have less of these.
