For precision and control in road maintenance applications, Simex's range of attachments is designed for accuracy and reliability.
High-tech solutions for road maintenance

Simex self-levelling road planers and stabilisers are designed for removing an entire layer of asphalt or cement in preparation for trenching, or for milling deteriorated road sections for later resurfacing.

With Simex planers, users can maintain constant milling depth in any condition regardless of the ground contour, as lateral slides on the planer automatically align to the milling surface.

Both slides move independently, providing greater stability and more precise planing movements as well as reducing material overflows. Dust is also controlled through a built-in water tank and spray system.

The PL range of planers can be used on skid steer loaders, hydrostatic drive loaders and backhoe loaders.

With the option of using multi tooth special drums the operator can remove horizontal road markings, perform road scarifying or take off the top few millimetres of a concrete or asphalt surface.

Maintenance costs are kept to a minimum, since the only requirement is the replacement of worn teeth.

PL planers are available in a range of models that run from the PL 25.10 with a 250mm width and 70mm maximum depth, the PL 75.20 with a 750mm width and 170mm maximum depth, through to the PL 2000 with a width of 2000mm and depth of 130mm.
