Chinese firm 7059 Zhejiang Metong Road Construction Machinery hopes to take a share of the market for road repair equipment in China as well as in developing nations.

The company’s LMT5160TYHB heat insulation road maintenance truck is designed for versatility, to carry out quick repairs on asphalt roads. It can be used to repair shallow cracks by breaking out the damaged surface, removing waste material, then spraying and filling the crack for compaction of the repaired area. The equipment suits duties on major highways, as well as secondary roads and urban links. Material for the repairs is stored in a 5m3 hotbox to ensure the temperature does not drop too low before it is used. The asphalt tank is designed with self-priming, emptying, heating and thermal insulation functions.
