Graders are construction machines used to move and shape soil, snow, and other materials to construct and maintain roads and runways. They have a moldboard blade that can be angled to cut and move materials laterally. Other main components include a frame for stability and a circular base below the frame that allows the blade to position at various angles. Graders are used for tasks like leveling surfaces, cutting ditches, shaping bank slopes, cleaning ditches, and spreading materials. Their engine capacities range from 60 to 600 horsepower.

machines used primarily for general construction and maintenance of roads and runways, moving large amounts of materials like soil ,snow laterally by side casting. Main Working Components of Grader

frame
Mold board/blade Scarifier log
Moldboard: it is also referred as blade. Used for side cast the material it encounters .its ends can be raised or lowered. it can be placed in may position. Frame : the frame connected to the front axle extends the full length of grader and enhances the mechanism. Scarifier : material too hard to cut with the moldboard are broken with the scarifier. Circle : the circular shape beneath the frame allows the moldboard to position at any angle. Different Tasks of a grader: 1) Planning surface: Mold board can be set at any angle to plane off irregular surfaces and using the resultant material to fill low spots. 2) Ditch cuts: Ditches can be cut by moldboard and scarifier combined normally at 2nd gear at full throttle. 3) Creating a bank slope: Grader can be used for Sloping the bank of road prevents slope failure. 4)Cleaning Ditches: Grader can be used to remove unwanted material from ditch during the bank slope operation. 5)Spreading material: Graders are often used to spread and mix loads. Capacities Different capacities of grader ranges from about 60 to 600hp. Blade size ranges from 2.5 to 7.3 meter.
