A new control system optimises operating performance of Wirtgen’s new large mills

Wirtgen is offering a new generation large milling machines, all featuring the company’s sophisticated MILL ASSIST package, a system designed to simplify the operator’s job, maximise machine performance, optimise operating costs, increase the quality of the milled surface and lower the environmental impact of road construction work.

This highly sophisticated control technology has been developed in-house by Wirtgen. The system monitors operating parameters continuously and is said to then optimise machine functions and change these in real-time as required, to best suit job site conditions.

The sophisticated system is said to reduce the operator’s workload, while also improving machine performance and reducing diesel consumption, CO2 emissions, and working noise.
