Exchange holder system for asphalt milling drums
BOMAG introduces the BMS 15 EVO exchange holder system designed to extend service life and improve efficiency in road milling applications. www.bomag.com BOMAG has introduced the BMS 15 EVO, a new generation exchange holder system for asphalt milling machines. The system builds on the established BMS 15 L platform, which has been used in road planers worldwide for several years. The updated design addresses increasing performance requirements in modern milling operations while remaining compatible with existing milling drums. The new system retains key characteristics of the previous model, including rear tool removal, a low tightening torque of 100 Nm, a robust tapered fit and reduced maintenance requirements. Reinforced design for longer service life According to BOMAG, the BMS 15 EVO incorporates approximately 35% more material in critical areas of the holder design. This structural reinforcement is intended to extend component durability, with the company indicating service life improvements of up to 50% compared with the previous generation. As with the earlier system, the exchange holder design can also contribute to lower fuel consumption. BOMAG states that the optimized geometry of the holder and cutting tools can reduce fuel usage by up to 20% compared with alternative systems. Optimized power transmission in milling operations The geometry of the exchange holder system is engineered to improve the conversion of engine power into effective milling energy. This design approach supports higher productivity in demanding road milling applications while helping to reduce long-term operating costs. Each element of the holder system is configured to provide stable positioning of the cutting tools and efficient force transfer during asphalt removal. Simplified tool replacement and maintenance The system continues to use a tightening torque of only 100 Nm, allowing toolholders to be replaced with cordless or pneumatic screwdrivers. This feature can reduce replacement time by approximately 50% compared with conventional holder systems. In addition, the design allows toolholders to be refurbished directly on site without damaging the positioning feet. These components maintain the original factory alignment of the holders. After repair, the restored geometry helps ensure optimal pick rotation, which can reduce cutting tool wear over time and extend the operational lifespan of the milling system. www.bomag.com Powered by Induportals Media Publishing
