Bolt-in extensions take paving widths to 11m

8592 CMI Concrete Machinery has introduced an upgraded SF-3 two-track slipform paver at the CONEXPO-CON/AGG show in Las Vegas. With a hydraulically-extending frame on both sides of the machine, paving widths range from 3.66m to 7.92m. The machine can also be supplied with bolt-in mainframe extensions, taking paving widths to a maximum 11m.

The SF-3 is powered by a Tier 4 Final Cummins QSG12 diesel engine delivering 336kW. This drives through a dual range hydrostatic drive system to track frame-mounted motors and gearboxes. With a shipping weight of 39 tonnes, at 11m width, the SF-3 has a maximum paving depth of 457mm.

  • Surface quality a key trend in asphalt paving
    March 7, 2012
    Improved surface quality and improved machine design are key trends in the asphalt paving sector, Mike Woof reports There is a big difference in asphalt paving techniques in North America and Europe. In North America, the need to construct long stretches of highway quickly resulted in wide pavers offering high throughput capacity, with compaction equipment then being used to achieve the required density of the various courses. In Europe's highway construction projects, distances tend to be shorter and contr
