• Technical highlights include a 6-inch maximum cut depth, tilt capability for precise edges, a direct drive piston motor, and durable replaceable parts.

• The product will be showcased at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026, inviting attendees to learn how it enhances milling efficiency and ease of use.

Virnig Manufacturing will showcase its new Cold Planer attachment at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026 in Las Vegas at Booth W43406. Built for paving crews, it makes asphalt milling and surface removal faster and easier, especially for operators with minimal experience.

Mill Asphalt Faster with Controls Anyone Can Learn

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. It cannot be any easier or simpler than this.

Seamless Across Mixed Fleets

This user-friendly control system also 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, Product Manager. “The Virnig Cold Planer makes clean, precise milling easy for anyone. We demoed 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:

• Up to 6” cut depth to finish sections faster with fewer passes

• ±12° 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 max productivity

• Optional 55-gallon water tank for dust suppression and better visibility

• Replaceable carbide or concrete picks for versatility across materials
