Equipment-class discovery • Systems vary with configuration
What to identify on reclaimers and stabilizers
Identify the installed mixing rotor, cutter/holder system and injection equipment. Reclaiming and stabilization application tags do not create separate machine identities.
Record rotor and chamber package, tool-holder designation and any installed water or binder system. Keep component positions and original identifiers visible in quotations.
Do not infer cutter fitment or operating settings from the machine’s marketed working width.
Assembly identification briefs
Use these component-specific questions to prepare a precise identification record or quote request. The source references explain component families; exact values and machine applications require the correct installed assembly documentation.
Mixing rotor cutters, picks and holders
Identify the reclaimer's installed rotor and cutting-tool system rather than selecting picks solely by machine name. Record holder-family markings and any documented rotor conversion. Used tooling should disclose wear and modifications, while a supplier confirms the actual tool-to-holder relationship and the intended application from the relevant documentation.
Identification and inspection record
rotor width
tool spacing
holder family
Source scope: Cold-recycling and soil-stabilization tool-family reference; no specific holder relationship or machine fitment imported. The reference supports component-family context; it does not establish an individual machine application.
Map reclaimer chamber liners and wear protection to their actual positions inside the installed chamber configuration. Keep layout photographs and known modifications with the machine record. A used liner package should identify included panels and condition, leaving material specification and detailed mounting requirements to the appropriate manufacturer reference.
Identification and inspection record
mixing chamber generation
liner layout
Source scope: Public mixing-chamber and injection-system reference; actual liner, door, hinge and seal documentation not acquired. This reference provides a documentation access route; topic-specific technical details have not been established.
Identify whether the reclaimer's fitted injection package handles water, emulsion or another documented additive before requesting pumps or nozzles. Preserve labels and circuit records. A familiar pump connection does not establish fluid compatibility or metering function, so the request should keep unsupported capacities and material claims unresolved.
Identification and inspection record
injection system variant
pump/nozzle type
Source scope: Public model-family metering and injection example only; no ratings, calibration instructions or part-number application imported. The reference supports component-family context; it does not establish an individual machine application.
Record the reclaimer's rotor-drive gearbox, clutch and coupling identities as distinct assemblies. Include the installed rotor arrangement and any replacement history. A used or rebuilt drive needs provenance and a defined test scope; a shared chassis model does not resolve internal ratios or the complete supplied drive package.
Identification and inspection record
rotor-drive arrangement
reduction gearbox
Source scope: Cat drivetrain families and rebuild-reference resources; no serial-specific internal configuration reviewed. The reference supports component-family context; it does not establish an individual machine application.
Identify reclaimer mixing-chamber doors, side plates, hinges and seals by their actual positions and chamber revision. Photographs should show mounting context and any modifications. A salvaged assembly should disclose repairs and condition, while matching outline alone cannot establish correct sealing, structural acceptance or the required fitting details.
Identification and inspection record
door/side plate geometry
revision
Source scope: Public mixing-chamber and injection-system reference; actual liner, door, hinge and seal documentation not acquired. This reference provides a documentation access route; topic-specific technical details have not been established.
Record metering sensors, controllers and software references for the reclaimer's installed process package. Keep fluid-injection identity separate from the general machine controller. A used electronic component requires documented application and commissioning requirements; a working display cannot establish that metering remains correctly configured or calibrated.
Identification and inspection record
control version
metering calibration
Source scope: Public model-family metering and injection example only; no ratings, calibration instructions or part-number application imported. The reference supports component-family context; it does not establish an individual machine application.
Start with the manufacturer, model suffix and installed equipment. The following specialist subjects help describe a sourcing request; they do not identify a specific orderable part.
Mixing rotors
Record the installed assembly identification, its position and configuration. Ask the supplier which documentation connects the proposed replacement to that assembly.
cutters
Record the installed assembly identification, its position and configuration. Ask the supplier which documentation connects the proposed replacement to that assembly.
housings
Record the installed assembly identification, its position and configuration. Ask the supplier which documentation connects the proposed replacement to that assembly.
injection systems
Record the installed assembly identification, its position and configuration. Ask the supplier which documentation connects the proposed replacement to that assembly.
For a used or rebuilt component, ask for its donor-unit provenance, inspection record, repair scope and any remaining identification marks. A donor model is context, not proof of fitment to another machine.
Reclaimer rotors, mixing chambers and injection systems
Wirtgen distinguishes milling/mixing rotors and spray injection of water or binder in its in-place process guidance. That supports separate mechanical and metering research. A material recipe or machine working width does not identify a replacement cutter, nozzle or control component.
Architecture and assembly boundaries
The rotor breaks and mixes material within a chamber whose doors, side plates and liners control containment and flow. Cutters and holders are distinct from the rotor drive and reduction system. Water, emulsion or other additive delivery adds pumps, bars, valves and metering equipment. Process electronics coordinate these functions but do not erase their physical boundaries. Describe whether an inquiry concerns ground engagement, chamber containment, rotor power transfer or fluid dosing before comparing references.
Variants that change the research path
Soil stabilization and cold-recycling configurations can have different injection and material-handling arrangements. The same nominal rotor width does not establish tool spacing, holder family or liner layout. A pump chosen for one fluid service cannot inherit another application from appearance alone. Door hinges, seals and actuators also require the actual chamber revision. Control and metering components need calibration and fluid-system context; a displayed flow setting is not an independently verified pump rating.
Condition evidence and selection record
Document cutter/holder condition, localized liner wear, chamber-door damage and visible leakage at named fluid connections separately. Uneven mixed material does not by itself diagnose a failed sensor or worn rotor. Rebuilt drives need exact build and test scope; used metering assemblies need their included instruments identified. Leave pressure, delivery accuracy, cutter material and acceptance limits unresolved until supported by the exact source and operating basis. Keep manufacturer process examples distinct from a prescription for a particular material recipe or site.
Specification evidence record
Published values retain their exact reference scope. Empty fields mean the value has not been established; they never mean zero. General model associations do not establish installed or serial-specific fitment.
