Cold Planers

Track Undercarriage and Wheel Undercarriage Cold Planers

We offer cold planers in two configurations for a variety of jobs:

• Track undercarriage: Tracks perform well in rugged applications involving wet or loose surfaces like gravel or clay. They have added stability during operation that makes them suitable for slopes and uneven ground.
• Wheel undercarriage: Wheels maneuver quickly on hard surfaces like asphalt and concrete. They suit jobs that involve moving from site to site in paved environments.

System K Rotors

Cat asphalt milling machines have signature System K rotors that deliver these advantages:

• Efficient material flow and cutting pattern: The System K rotors' specialized design promotes efficient material flow and cutting in various situations.
• Dual-taper retention design: A dual-taper retention design speeds up bit changes by keeping tool holders in place without retaining pins or bolts.
