2. Machine description
The Blastrac self ride scarifier BMP-4000 can be supplied as an electric version or a diesel version.
The diesel version is for outdoor use only (BMP-4000G), the electric version is for indoor use only (BMP-
4000E). This BMP-4000 can be used for milling concrete, asphalt, for removing of coatings or for sawing
concrete.
Because of the heavy weight of the machine, you can remove a lot of material at once and in combination with
a suitable Blastrac dust collector, which is obliged, the machine works almost dust free.
Due to the fine adjustment of both legs and the integrated height levelling system, you can adjust the work
depth of the machine up to the millimetre accurate.
Because of the accurate adjustment it is possible to give the surface a light or heavy treatment.
The milling picks are positioned in a way to create a very nice and fine milling pattern.
Applications
The scarifier is a very versatile machine and with the appropriate picks on the drum or with the sawing drum it
may be used for the following applications:
Remove layers of concrete or asphalt
To roughen concrete or asphalt
To clean most horizontal surfaces
To remove coatings
To remove road markings
To make non-slip surfaces
To make lines in concrete
To shave off thin layers of concrete
The force of impact of a cutter is controlled by the depth adjustment. With the right depth adjustment, the
best performance is obtained to give a desired result.
The use of a suitable Blastrac dust collector ensures dust-free operation of the machine, clean air at the
workspace and raises the life span of the machine.
Due to the dust collector the picks will keep turning in the drum and this will helps the picks to wear off even.
