Stability and versatility for slipforming concrete with Power Curbers

April 9, 2025 Read time: 1 min
Power Curbers has designed its new 5704-D MAX slipformer to meet 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 because it can be folded when required, with the optional aluminium canopy also folding quickly for transport. 

A spokesperson for the firm said, “We can bolt a mold on either side of the machine and we can mount any mold from Power Curbers.” 

The spokesperson commented that the machine retains the firm’s simple and compact design and said: “We’re still able to turn a tight radius even though it’s a four-track machine.” 

The 5704-D MAX also features nine vibrators. It can be equipped with machine control technology from Leica Geosystems, Topcon or Trimble.

  • The Path to Climate-Neutral Road Construction
    October 1, 2023
    Machine manufacturers and construction companies around the globe are currently searching for ways to achieve the goal of climate-neutral construction. The challenge here is to successively reduce emissions of CO2 and other harmful gases (summarized to CO2 equivalents: CO2e) around the world to zero over the coming decades. In the road construction sector, this transformation is inextricably linked to the improvement and further development of production and working processes. In the future, machines and construction materials will also be assessed based on the climate-harmful emissions arising from their production and use. However, the focus should not be on individual machines, but on the entire process leading up to the finished product – a road. Ultimately, the decisive factor is the emissions generated per kilometer of newly built or rehabilitated road – the “CO2e per work done”.

Biorefiner Arizona Chemical has just unveiled independent test results for its SYLVAROAD RP1000 Performance Additive that it says demonstrate that the rejuvenator can help create mixes that ar
