3281 Eurovia Specialist Treatments, part of Eurovia UK, are strengthening their armoury with the introduction of a customised Etnyre chipper spreader from the US. A Eurovia team worked with Etnyre to develop the operating parameters, enhanced health, safety and environmental compliance of the model. The self-propelled high-performance surface dressing chipper has a Cummins low-emission 194kW Tier IV engine.

The unit’s computer controls can adjust the material rate and speed of spread up to a width of 6.1m – a 30% increase on the maximum width.More minor and rural roads can now be treated in one pass, according to the manufacturer, which will minimise the number of joints in the newly applied surface dressing and limiting road traffic closures.

Etnyre, based in the US town of Oregon, Illinois, is a maker of chip spreaders and asphalt transportation equipment and accessories, including flushers and sprinklers, asphalt storage tanks, trailers and crude oil transporters. The company was founded more than 100 years ago.

For the end user though, buying new kit that complies with Tier 4 Interim/Stage IIIB emissions regulations is likely to carry additional costs.

    Aggregate Industries says that its new KS12-16 ExtendaChip Spreader will “redefine health and safety standards” across the highways sector. The KS12-16 ExtendaChip Spreader has been developed in conjunction with engineering firm and equipment supplier Pavemac, based in England. Aggregates Industries claims that it is “the first machine of its kind” to be extendable, with a width range between 3.6-4.9m. This removes the need for multiple chippers on site and so speeds chip spreading operations. Oth
