The BM 5000 is a high capacity line marking machine designed for large scale jobs such as marking highways, motorways or airport runways. The material tank capacity can be up to 710L. The possibility for the large material capacity naturally gives fewer stops during the day for refilling.The BM 5000 has a two-seat slidable drive and operator section for flexible working on the left or right side. The Borum Master 5000 can be supplied with the thermoplastic Borum extruder of 30, 40 or 50cm. The extruder may be used for the application of various types of plain and profiled lines, single and double lines of different widths, as well as for simultaneous application of continuous and interrupted lines.The Agglomerate equipment can apply lines in widths up to 50 cm.

THERMOPLASTIC NON-PRESSURIZED TANK:

Non-pressurized thermoplastic tank, indirectly heated via heat transfer oil. The thermal oil and thermoplastic material temperature is thermostatically controlled and regulated automatically according to the settingsBurner systemDiesel burner system for heating of the thermal oil (and thermoplastic). Propane burner is available on demand.Vertical agitator (mixer)With hydraulic transmission. Heated center pipe for efficient uniform temperature control. Perfect melting & homogenization of the thermoplastic. Stable construction with foundation and bearings at the top of the material tank.

EXTRUDER SET-UP

The working principle of the extruder lies in the extrusion of the hot thermoplastic material through the extruder shutters onto the road surface. This allows to switch between line types in seconds with a push of a button. No need for mechanical adjustment. The thickness of the line is controlled by the slot gap and the speed of the machine, coupled to the thermoplastic feed rate. Glass beads can be pre-mixed and/or automatically applied with glass bead guns. You can choose between thermoplastic extruder of 30, 40, or 50 cm in total line width, built-up with 5 cm standard shutters (alternative shutter dimensions in the range of 4-10 cm for alternative line widths).

EXTRUDER SPECIFICATIONS

Effective heating of the complete unit using a centrifugal pump, 42 L/min, hydraulically driven. This ensures optimal performance and that the material does not stiffen and set inside the equipment.Pneumatic lifting cylinder for up/down function, operation controlled from operator’s seat.Pneumatically controlled quick cleaning system for removal of solids left in the extrusion slot. It can be activated while extrusion is in process and is only slightly detectable on the line in the form of a moderate thickening of the layer. The application speed varies according to the material, line type and width. Usual working speed is 3-6km/h but can go up to 8 km/h for some lines. Speed-dependent settings are possible.

AUGER SCREW PUMP WITH CONTINUOUS RECIRCULATION SYSTEM

The transport of material from tank to extruder head is done by a hydraulically driven auger screw pump, which is electronically controlled. The screw pump has a permanent thermoplastic recirculation system which ensures a constant flow past the inactive extrusion shutters, keeping these clean and ready for opening. This avoids settling and catching of solid parts and prevents unnecessary wear of mechanical parts.Build-in pressure regulating system ensures that line width and thickness does not change no matter the number of shutters involved in the current marking assignment.

FEATURES - THERMOPLASTIC EXTRUDER:

Thermoplastic is a durable material that cures quickly and adheres strongly to the road surface. It can be used for applications of both flat lines (also known as type 1 lines) or of thick profiled lines and markings (also known as type 2 lines). This type of material is used on various types of roads, but you will often see it on highways or motorways as it can withstand high traffic density, it has a high visibility at night and during wet conditions and glass beads can be mixed in for enhancing visibility.

LineMaster features

The Borum LineMaster control unit is an easy way of setting and controlling your line marking jobs. The LineMaster is attached to the operator's section of the machine and gives you full control of all your line marking tasks, from line application and pre-marking to reporting and invoicing. It is possible to store up to 99 different line types, and to arrange these in up to 30 different marking programs. You are also able to pre-set line widths, line types and different combinations to have them ready for marking, and can instantly adjust them on the go.Furthermore, you are able to view the status of various parts of the machine (e.g. compressor) on the computer screen that will help with correctly maintaining the machine and avoiding break downs.

Thermoplastic agglomerate equipment

The agglomerate equipment consists of a roller with sheet metallic blades mounted under the thermoplastic extruder. Therefore, this equipment can only work together with the Borum thermoplastic extruder.The roller is hydraulically driven and the rpm is controlled by the machine's LineMaster computer (control unit). The roller gives you the possibility toapply line widths up to 50 cm. The application width is controlled from the machine's LineMaster computer by setting how many of the extruder's shutters should be open and let material flow. Line thickness can be up to 4 mm.The usual working speed when doing agglomerate lines is 4-5 km/h depending on the conditions, e.g. material, line type, and operator experience
