VM 180
The VHM VM180 is engineered for high-precision grading and profiling tasks that demand accuracy, stability, and consistent control. It is an essential machine for shaping road subgrades, maintaining camber, forming drainage profiles, and achieving smooth, level surfaces prior to paving. The grader’s rigid frame and balanced design allow precise blade positioning even during fine finishing operations.
Advanced hydraulic systems provide smooth and responsive moldboard control, enabling operators to maintain uniform surface quality over long working stretches. The articulated steering system improves maneuverability in confined or curved sections, while the elevated, ergonomically designed cabin offers clear visibility of the blade and working area. Designed for continuous-duty performance, the VM180 delivers dependable results across highways, urban roads, and maintenance projects.
