Toolholder systems

Maximum structural integrity and wear resistance are vital qualities for the picks to ensure highly precise and productive milling and cutting operations. The picks are firmly anchored in the heavy-duty WIRTGEN toolholder systems and can be replaced quickly and easily right on the construction site.

The consistent further development of our toolholder systems is always based on the goal of improving the performance and efficiency of our machines and offering reliable solutions to our customers.

Welded toolholder systems use toolholders which are permanently welded to the milling drum. As they require less space, they are preferably used on milling drums with small diameters and on fine milling drums with extremely small tool spacings. Both types of milling drums produce small depths of cut, which reduces the risk of wear and breakage of the toolholders and generally also requires less frequent replacement intervals.

Damaged or worn picks and toolholders should be replaced in order to minimize operating costs. WIRTGEN quick-change toolholder systems allow picks and toolholders to be replaced quickly and easily right on the construction site. Quick-change toolholder systems primarily consist of two parts: a housing (bottom part of the toolholder system) welded to the milling drum tube, and a toolholder (upper part) connected to the housing via a quick-release bolted connection.
