The new 5704-D MAX slipformer from Power Curbers features extra stability and versatility, suiting the needs of the European market

Power Curbers is now offering the latest four track version of its successful 5700 slipformer, the 5704-D MAX to the European market. This variant offers high stability and extra versatility, suiting the needs of European customers. The machine is available with a 3.7m auger, 6m belt and 8.5m belt. The conveyor options can be switched quickly from left to right due to a special dual-swinging mount. Transport is eased for the 8.5m conveyor option as it can be folded when required.

The latest version of the standard 5700-D still offers a compact size, simple design, easy operation, and high productivity for kerb and gutter, pedestrian walkways, barriers, ditches, paving and tunnels.

Meanwhile, the firm has developed a Virtual Showroom for the SF-3404 paver from sister firm Power Pavers. This offers a virtual reality experience, allowing users to virtually stand on the operator’s platform, view the machine’s controls, and operate the Dowel Bar Inserter.
