Reinforced concrete milling/cutting mandrel

A milling mandrel for cutting pavement reinforcement and milling paving and pavement reinforcement materials comprising:

• a primary barrel;
• a plurality of milling bits removably attached to said primary barrel;
• at least one support base comprising a plurality of flats annularly spaced around the perimeter of a support base, wherein each of the flats comprise a predetermined length capable of receiving at least one bit thereon;
• and
• a plurality of cutting bits removably attached to said primary barrel via said at least one support base, wherein said plurality of cutting bits are configured to cut reinforcement materials present in paving materials prior to milling reinforcement materials.

A milling mandrel for cutting pavement reinforcement and milling paving and pavement reinforcement materials comprising:

• a plurality of cutting bits coupled to a support base via bit casings, said plurality of cutting bits arranged to cut reinforcement materials present in paving materials prior to milling reinforcement materials;
• one or more bit locating assemblies comprised of various shaped cuts formed within and positioned annularly about a support base and selected from the group consisting of left cut, right cut, and center cut;
• and
• a plurality of bit casings wherein said cutting bits are selectively secured about said support base.

A milling system comprising:

• a milling device;
• powering means for powering said milling system;
• attachment means for attaching said milling device to a vehicle;
• a milling mandrel releaseably attached to said milling device, said milling mandrel comprising a primary barrel, said barrel further comprising;
• a plurality of cutting bits removably attached to said primary barrel via support bases and arranged within one or more cutting sectors;
• a plurality of milling bits removably attached to said primary barrel and arranged within one or more milling sectors that are also defined on said primary barrel;
• and
• said cutting bits arranged to cut reinforcement materials present in paving materials prior to milling reinforcement materials, said cutting bit arrangement comprising a pattern selected from the group consisting of right cut, center cut, and left cut.
