This is one of those massive machines that they use to grind down the street to remove the surface and prepare for paving. It is a crazy operation and not one I fully understood even after watching close up. It seems to melt the pavement somehow or pulverize it into tiny bits.

  • The Machine has Metal Teeth on the Rotating Drum under the Machine. There are 50 of them on the Machine. The Teeth Move Fast Enough to Break the Pavement into pieces and a Vacum Takes the Pieces onto the conveyor Belt and into Waiting Dump Trucks.
