Roadtec, Inc. announces that a new product, the SX-7 soil stabilizer, is now in available.
The Cat®-powered, 700 HP machine features a 21” cut
depth, the deepest in the industry. Used to stabilize the roadbed
before the pavement is constructed, the SX-7 can work in many types of
materials from soil to old pavement. With its right-hand flush cut, the
machine pulverizes or stabilizes all the way to the curb line. The cut
is 102” wide, perfect for three passes on a 24’ wide road. For
relatively shallow cuts the cutter is positioned in the housing to
provide optimal gradation. As cut depth increase the volume is adjusted
in the housing to accommodate throughput for deep stabilization. The
turning radius of this powerful machine is only 155” inches in the cut
and 0” out of the cut, making it the most maneuverable soil stabilizer
available.
The machine features 4-wheel steer and can be controlled via one
or both front-wheels, one or both rear-wheels and can also crab
sideways. The control console and operator seat swivel 180° and the
machine can be operated from the right or left side. The SX-7 rides on
four 26.5 x 25 with extra-deep tread and 2-inch sidewalls and has four
cutting speeds. Torque to the cutter drum is rated the highest in the
industry at over 500,000 pound-force inches in first gear. An optional
emulsion and water distribution system is offered.
