US-headquartered 7639 MRL Equipment Company, a leading supplier of road marking and removal / grooving equipment and a regular exhibitor at Intertraffic Amsterdam, will use this year’s event to highlight its range of equipment and to unveil a new machine.

To complement MRL’s large application units the company will showcase its new Mini Mac series of ride-on, self-propelled thermoplastic road marking machines. A small, highly manoeuvrable thermoplastic application unit designed to increase production when applying markings for intersections, symbols or lane lines, the Mini Mac 400 offers a 180kg material tank, electronic skipline and hydrostatic drive system. The company says the machine’s unique ribbon extrusion application die allows the operator to change line widths from 10cm to 30cm with a simple quick action toggle switch.

The Mini Mac 400 is designed to be supplied with hot thermoplastic from truck- or trailer- mounted preheaters that MRL also produces in sizes ranging from 450kg to 1800kg.

MRL will also use Intertraffic to highlight its line of truck-mounted cold paint, thermoplastic and two component units that it says offer the industry’s highest production rates.
