One of the first GOMACO GP-4000 pavers equipped with the latest G+ control system has been used to carry out resurfacing work on the Denver International Airport for Villalobos Concrete Company. The four-track GP-4000 machine has been used to slipform paving passes 7.6m wide and 457mm thick for the new runway surface. To ensure that the machine delivered a quality surface it was equipped with the latest 3D guidance system from Leica Geosystems.
