Caterpillar Paving is now rolling out its F Series paver range. These models offer increased performance and capabilities, delivering higher paving quality.
Volvo Construction Equipment says that its all-new F-Series ADTs will meet the tough Tier 4 Interim/Stage IIIB emissions legislation as well as delivering performance improvements over previous models.
Atlas Copco Dynapac has upgraded its US style F800T paver. This highway class machine is aimed at the 3.05m wide market. Power comes from a six-cylinder Cummins diesel that meets the Tier 4 Final emissions requirements. The machine has a 34kW onboard generator which is sufficient to power the electrically heated screed, as well as extra lighting for night working and other equipment.
Versatility is a key feature of Caterpillar’s new M317F wheeled excavator. The machine features a short tailswing design that enables it to operate on road projects next to live traffic or Jersey barriers as well as in urban locations.
Advances in asphalt compaction are offering improved performance right across the spectrum of size and capacity – Mike Woof writes. New asphalt compaction machines are offering major gains in performance as firms develop new systems. Large and small asphalt compactors now offer higher output than earlier generation machines, while delivering better quality and lower fuel consumption as well as gains in reliability, durability, safety, ergonomics and operator comfort.
