RP-2505 heavy duty paver features the European developed high density screeds
1252 Roadtec has introduced the new heavy-duty steel track RP-2505 paver at bauma 2013.

The model on display features high-density screeds with a twin tamper bar screed, which was developed and manufactured in Germany.

The RP-2505 is a versatile machine capable of achieving high densities in stiffer mixes such as cold mix, base materials, and roller-compacted concrete, as well as conventional hot mix asphalt.

The screeds are electrically heated and vibratory and the twin tamper bars allow the screed to compact the material to extremely high densities. The screeds have a basic width of 2.55m and hydraulically extend to 5.06m. The screeds crown can be hydraulically adjusted from -2% to plus 4%.

The twin tamper bar screed includes dual screed controls and thermostatically-controlled screed temperatures for smooth operation.

A full width heavy-duty walkway is included on the rear of the screed, enabling easy operator access to either side. Similar to screeds on other Roadtec pavers, mounting locations for automatic grade controls are found on the two arms.

    Three-dimensional technology is playing an increasingly important role on construction sites around the world but there are still projects for which there is no 3D data and the use of a 2D system makes more sense for machine control. With the new 3D-matic, MOBA offers a precise and flexible 3D levelling system for graders, dozers and blades that can also be used as a 2D system if necessary.

    Bobcat’s M Series mini excavators have moved to the Tier 4 emissions standard without the need for a diesel particulate filter (DPF). The E42, E45, E50 and E55 mid-size mini excavators use an ultra-low particulate combustion process engine, which in the two heavier models offers up to 12% more torque than previous models of a similar size. The excavators feature a cold weather protection system that recognises when engine temperatures are low and limits the maximum output to prevent premature component fail

    With an operating weight of 83.8 – 86tonnes, Hitachi’s giant ZX870LCH-5 excavator is said to be built to operate on the most demanding job sites, such as large-scale construction projects and in busy quarries. The model incorporates the HIOS IIIB hydraulic system, said to allow for faster operation with lower fuel consumption and increased front speed. The ZX870LCH-5 is claimed to have 6% more productivity in H/P mode compared to the previous Zaxis model. Swing torque is also said to have increased by 9% an
