G&Z is offering an improved version of its S600

225 Guntert & Zimmerman is now offering the latest version of its S600 concrete paver. This meets the latest emissions requirements for North America and Europe.

Like earlier versions of the S600, the latest version suits duties in city streets, secondary roads, highway and airport paving, as well as applications such as barrier walls, off-set paving and zero or minimum clearance paving. The machine can also deliver good smoothness in small or medium-sized jobs. The firm is also offering its compact S400 unit, which shares many features with the S600. The S400 retains the SmartLeg turnbuckle design that allows fast width changes and according to G&Z, which is said to boost versatility as the unit can be used for offset paving, when fitted with molds to slipform New Jersey barriers. The S400 is equipped with the firm’s AccuSteer system, allowing it to handle tight curves such as kerbs in parking areas or for roads linking to housing developments.

Paving widths for the machine range from 2-5.3m as it has a telescopic tractor frame and allows up to 7.5m with extensions. The firm says that rapid width changes can be made using G&Z’s proven TeleEnd system, while the machine can be used in zero clearance applications. The S400 can also be equipped with a dowel bar inserter (DBI).
