The XDS Floor Scraper from ArmorEdge is the most versatile and cost-effective solution for your floor removal and restoration projects in comparison to the ride-on floor stripping machine. Let us explore the versatility, cost, power, weight and stability of both options to help you make an informed decision for your flooring removal needs.
Versatility
With the XDS Floor Scraper, you can easily change attachments on existing skid steer, transforming it into a multifunctional tool. As well the ability to run other tools with the floor scraper, maximizing efficiency and resource utilization. In comparison, the Ride-On Floor Scraper Machine only has a single purpose - floor removal.
The XDS Floor Scraper offers more versatility on the job by creating a multifunctional tool using a skid steer versus a ride-on machine that has a single purpose.
Cost
The ride-on machine is prohibitively expensive versus the XDS Floor Scraper that is cost effective. By leveraging an existing skid steer, contractors can save up to four times the cost of investing versus a ride-on machine.
By utilizing the equipment on site, the XDS Floor Scraper is more cost effective by saving time on a project versus a ride-on machine.
Power
By having the ability to attach the XDS Floor Scraper with a universal skid steer plate, contractors can enjoy optimal traction, especially when using tracked skid steers, ensuring seamless and efficient removals. The ride-on machine in comparison may lack necessary power and traction for more demanding projects.
By utilizing the power of a skid steer and its traction, attaching the XDS Floor Scraper provides better removal versus just a ride-on machine that could lack enough power.
Weight
The XDS attachment addresses the weight issue adeptly with the attachment's weight is concentrated close to the blade, ensuring stability during operation. By using the skid steer's weight for traction, the floor scraper's capabilities remain unhindered, making it a heavy-duty and balanced solution.
Traditional ride-on floor strippers concentrate most of their weight on the back wheels to provide traction. This setup can lead to instability, especially on uneven surfaces, affecting the blade's contact with the floor.
Weight distribution is a critical consideration when choosing a floor removal machine making the XDS the ultimate choice.
Stability
The XDS floor scraping attachment boasts exceptional stability. Its floating head design, combined with the skid steer's stability, guarantees consistent and uninterrupted floor removal on both even and uneven surfaces.
When using a ride-on floor stripper machine it is often presents challenges with stability. The machine's balance primarily relies on the front blade and two narrow wheels at the back, making it susceptible to tipping when encountering obstacles on the floor.
The stability of the equipment on a job site is crucial and the ride-on machine presents many challenges for stability whereas the XDS does not.
In Conclusion
The XDS Floor Scraper emerges as the most versatile and cost-effect choice in comparison to a ride-on machine.
The XDS offers powerful performance, balanced weight and outstanding stability. By utilizing the XDS attachment with an existing skid steer streamline projects and tackle various tasks efficiently to achieve remarkable results which makes the XDS Floor Scraper the superior choice over ride-on machines.
