Towed soil stabilizer WS 220

The powerful unit for effective soil stabilization • The WS 220 tractor-towed stabilizer is designed for efficient soil stabilization at a working width of 2.15 m. • Their range of applications covers both soil improvement and soil strengthening measures. • In soil improvement, the tractor-towed stabilizers produce soils suitable for placing and compacting to create embankments, slopes, backfills or site haulage roads. • In soil strengthening, they create load-bearing surfaces for the construction of parking lots, roads, sports grounds, track beds, harbour facilities, airports or industrial parks. Whether heavy, coarse-grained or sandy subgrade material: the tractor-towed stabilizer can be relied on to convert it into soil that is highly suitable for placing and compacting. If too coarse, the material to be stabilized is crushed in the mixing chamber by the milling and mixing rotor. Soft soil is covered with lime spread by, for instance, a binder spreader prior to treatment. Subséquent homogeneous mixing by the milling and mixing rotor causes the lime to remove the excess humidity from the soil. Soil stabilization with added binding agents like cernent is a patent remedy for increasing the long-term résistance against stresses resulting from traffic and weather conditions. Soil stabilization produces a ground of permanently high bearing capacity, strength and excellent résistance to frost.
