Wirtgen’s SP 25i paver not just for barriers

Wirtgen says that its compact SP 25i slipform paver is a versatile multipurpose machine. In addition to concrete safety barriers up to 2m high and 2.5m wide, the SP 25i produces profiles of diverse geometries, such as drainage gutters, canals and curbs. The SP 25 - as well as the SP 15 - can be pre-installed with a 3D kit to support 3D control systems. Wirtgen says that compatibility with the systems of leading suppliers ensures a high degree of operational reliability.
