 PC1505XL Pavement Grinder & Groover typically uses diamond-tipped blades to remove a thin layer of the pavement surface, which can be used to smooth out uneven surfaces, remove old coatings or markings, or prepare the surface for new overlays.

A pavement groover, on the other hand, is a machine used to cut grooves or channels into a concrete or asphalt pavement surface. The grooves are typically used to provide better traction for vehicles or pedestrians, to reduce the risk of slipping or skidding on wet or icy surfaces.

Both pavement grinders and groovers are commonly used in road construction and maintenance projects, as well as in commercial and industrial applications where smooth and safe pavement surfaces are required.
