Multi-functional Road Construction and Maintenance Equipment: Pavement Minor Repair Tools

Road maintenance is a critical aspect of municipal construction and often involves addressing a wide range of complex issues.

Today, increasing traffic demands have raised the standards for road quality and maintenance. Timely road maintenance restores damaged sections and ensures the road maintains its usability, safety, comfort, and smooth flow of traffic. In urban settings, minor road surface damages are common. Using large equipment in such cases often leads to traffic congestion, causing inconvenience to residents' work and daily lives. Moreover, the noise and exhaust emissions from large machinery pose additional challenges. Road management authorities have increasingly realized that traditional construction equipment is no longer sufficient to meet the growing demands of road maintenance.

As a result, skid steer loaders, known for their high efficiency, compact size, flexibility, and versatility, have gained favor with road management departments. Given the diverse nature of road maintenance projects, skid steer loaders equipped with various attachments have become the ultimate "jack-of-all-trades," capable of addressing every aspect of maintenance tasks.

Sibom Attachments offers a comprehensive set of road repair solutions. In this post, we'll introduce the tools specifically designed for minor road repairs:

Start with the cold planer to remove damaged road surfaces, followed by the enclosed sweeper for an initial cleanup. Next, use a powerful blower to further clean the area, then deploy a small asphalt paver to lay down new asphalt. Finally, compact the asphalt using a pneumatic roller and a vibratory steel wheel roller.

With just one host machine and multiple attachments, the entire process—milling, sweeping, blowing, paving, and compacting—can be completed seamlessly. Thanks to the compact size and agile movement of the host machine, including its ability to turn in place, it minimizes disruptions to daily urban traffic. This makes it an ideal choice for minor road repair and maintenance projects.

Cold Planer

The cold planer is compatible with skid steer loaders equipped with high-flow hydraulic systems. It is designed for milling asphalt and concrete surfaces, with various milling drum sizes available. The attachment is ideal for removing road markings, zebra crossings, and grinding concrete surfaces to improve traction and prevent slipping.

The planer can perform lateral shifts, allowing operations to be carried out without straddling curbs or ditches, ensuring excellent milling results.

Pickup Broom

The pickup broom can be mounted on skid steer loaders, loaders, and similar machinery. It effectively cleans dust and debris from roads, parking lots, sidewalks, docks, warehouses, and ports, collecting the waste in a hopper for easy disposal at a designated location. This attachment provides a highly efficient solution for road cleaning prior to paving, ensuring excellent cleaning performance and construction efficiency.

Key Features:

1. Hydraulic Drive System
   The hydraulic drive allows for sweeping in both forward and reverse directions. The hopper bottom is equipped with replaceable wear-resistant plates, extending the hopper's lifespan.
2. High-Quality Brushes
