342 Topcon’s latest P-32 asphalt paving control has the 3.5 inch, full-colour GC-35 LED display, graphical display control box and allows one operator to control both sides of the paver.

It includes Topcon’s Sonic Tracker and slope sensor and is compatible with the Smoothtrac sonic averaging system.

“The operator can view elevation and slope values of the screed from a single box, a time-saving feature made possible by refining existing, time-tested machine control technologies from Topcon and combining them with the new GC-35 control box,” said construction product sales manager Jeroen Mennink.

The new GC-35 box is water and dustproof with an IP67 rating. Firmware updates are done via a USB connection. It is also backward-compatible to Topcon System 5 paving control systems.

    January 6, 2017
    MOBA has developed a new temperature scanner system called the PAVE-IR, designed to help operators avoid laying incorrectly heated asphalt. From mixing plant to compaction, getting the temperature of asphalt right is critical. Cold asphalt can lead to road damage, which results in additional costs of up to 46% due shorter surface lifetimes. The new MOBA PAVE-IR aims for an optimum asphalt material mix and the best possible process flow says the manufacturer.
