You\nknow that you need asphalt for your parking lots and driveways. You also\nprobably know that asphalt needs regular maintenance. But, do you know the\ndifferent processes? If a contractor brings up asphalt milling, will you know\nwhat they are talking about? We can help! Here is what you need to know about\nasphalt milling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Asphalt Milling\nBasics<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The purpose of asphalt milling is to remove the top layer of\nasphalt in a parking lot, driveway, or other surfaces without disturbing the\nsubbase. The reason for asphalt milling is to provide a surface to lay new\nasphalt down without increasing the height of the area. If you have a firm\nfoundation, this is a good way to avoid replacing the entire parking lot. The\nmilling process prevents disturbing curbs or drainage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Asphalt Milling\nProcess<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The process of asphalt milling includes a milling machine.\nThese machines come in a variety of sizes to undertake a variety of different\njobs. Larger machines may be able to cut up to 15,000 square yards at about 75\nfeet per minute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Asphalt Milling\nMachine Components<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are three components to the asphalt milling machine.\nThere is the cutting drum that rotates cutting heads across the asphalt\u2019s\nsurface. This component chews up the asphalt, then the second component, the\nvacuum, sucks up the material. The conveyance system is the third component and\nit is responsible for moving the material to the dump truck. Once the milling\nmachine removes the asphalt, the contractors can sweep and clean the surface.\nOnce clean, the new asphalt can bond to the old asphalt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Asphalt milling is less invasive and a lot more cost-effective than replacing the whole parking lot.
