GOMACO has updated its sophisticated G+ control system

The G+ Connect is GOMACO’s latest proprietary CAN-based network products allowing fast, two-way communication between all accessories and the G+ controller. This closed-loop control system for the electronics and hydraulics links the paver’s valves and various sensors and delivers high accuracy. The system is said to allow tighter, faster, and more accurate machine corrections and improves communications between components for precision setup and paving.

GOMACO has developed a sophisticated new paving control
The G+ Connect is 218 Gomaco’s latest proprietary CAN-based network products allowing fast, two-way communication between all accessories and the G+ controller. This closed-loop control system for the electronics and hydraulics links the paver’s valves and various sensors and delivers high accuracy. The system is said to allow tighter, faster, and more accurate machine corrections and improves communications between components for precision setup and paving. The G+ Connect uses the G+ control system and GOMACO’s new paving software. The system includes leg positioning, paving speed and percentage of drive, steering, travel information, grade information and deviation meters and also offers a detailed fault history. The system allows all the components of a GOMACO paver to be interfaced, including 3D stringless control, IDBI, tie bar inserter (TBI), power transition adjustors and GOMACO Smoothness Indicator (GSI) for example. The software has been developed in-house by GOMACO’s own control specialists. The system is now offered on the firm’s 2800 paver as well as other models in the range.

    MOBA’s new PAVE-IR Scan system offers a new way of monitoring and documenting the temperature during asphalt paving for an entire project. As a result, contractors can optimise their work and verify the quality of the paving process. With the system’s intelligent temperature scanner, the system measures the asphalt temperature over the whole paving width of up to eight metres. The temperature profile is displayed in real-time on the display and the operator can react at any time if irregularities occur. All

    Bergkamp has launched the M1E self-propelled continuous slurry seal and micro surfacing paver. The machine has two main advantages over older versions, said the manufacturer: it is easier to operate and has electronic mix control and diagnostics. “It is much simpler to operate than the old-style machine,” said Bergkamp general manager Bill Cooper. “The operator can pick it up much quicker which means that if you lose an operator you can get a new one up to speed faster.”
