Proper maintenance of road shoulders is essential for ensuring traffic safety and extending the life of infrastructure. Over time, soil, gravel, and other materials accumulate along the edges of the roadway, altering the shape of the shoulder and preventing proper water drainage.
Hymach’s SBH deburring machine was designed specifically to solve this problem quickly, effectively, and with high productivity.
Quay Restoration and Prevention of Deterioration
The SBH project restores the dock to its original configuration by removing material that has accumulated over time. This results in several operational benefits:
- restoration of the proper roadside profile;
- improved stormwater runoff, preventing standing water;
- reduction in water infiltration that accelerates the deterioration of the road surface;
- less need for major maintenance over the long term.
A clean, well-maintained roadside actually helps keep the entire road infrastructure functioning efficiently.
Performance designed to run without interruption
The SBH has a working width of 900 mm and a cantilever rotor, a design feature that prevents material from accumulating at the head.
The continuous side discharge, ensured by the helical cutter, maintains consistent productivity even during demanding operations, reducing downtime and increasing operational efficiency.
Installation is quick and involves replacing the mulching head, allowing you to switch from one attachment to another in a short amount of time and optimizing the use of the machine.
A versatile piece of equipment for a wide range of applications
Although it was developed for the maintenance of road shoulders, the SBH is used in numerous other operational contexts.
In fact, it is ideal for:
- cleaning ditches and gutters;
- maintenance of levees and low-grade slopes;
- grading the edges of forest trails and dirt roads;
- maintenance of field edges and agricultural areas;
- Work on unpaved yards and industrial areas.
This versatility allows operators to use a single piece of equipment for various types of work, increasing job site productivity and reducing operating costs.
A practical solution for those working in the community
With the SBH chipping machine, Hymach provides operators with a tool designed to improve the efficiency of routine maintenance, ensuring rapid response times, uninterrupted work, and long-lasting results. This solution combines ease of use, high performance, and versatility, meeting the needs of public agencies, maintenance companies, and professionals dedicated to land management.
