Inexperienced operators can slow crews down, and most OEM planers only work with a single loader brand. Virnig’s cold planer solves both problems with a plug-and-play design and intuitive controls which use the loader’s existing joystick buttons.
Operators can cycle through all core functions with one button and activate them with another. A live display shows which function is active, so there’s no need to memorize button sequences.
Seamless across mixed fleets
This user-friendly control system works across skid and track loaders from different brands, making it easy for crews to switch loaders and stay productive. This is ideal for mixed fleets, rental operations and municipal crews, allowing any operator start milling accurately within minutes.
“Not every crew has an experienced planer or skid steer operator,” says Tyler Monson, Virnig product manager. “The Virnig cold planer makes clean, precise milling easy for anyone. We demo’d it with someone who never operated a skid steer before and they were productive within minutes. This planer helps companies stay on schedule and reduce downtime.”
Designed to perform
Engineered for high-flow skid steer and track loaders with 26–50 gpm of flow, the cold planer combines power and durability to handle asphalt and concrete. It features:
- Up to 6-inch cut depth to finish sections faster with fewer passes
- ±12-degree tilt capability for clean edges along curbs and slopes
- Direct-drive piston motor for more torque on tough jobs
- Self-leveling floating frame for uniform passes every time
- Replaceable AR400 skid shoes and cut-depth indicators for durability and easy maintenance
- Pressure gauge for maximum productivity
- Optional 55-gallon water tank for dust suppression and better visibility
- Replaceable carbide or concrete picks for versatility across materials
