MOBA’s improved system boosts levelling accuracy

The new MOBA-MATIC II levelling control system is said to offer an array of innovative features that improve ease of use and safety. The control handset now comes with a large screen so that the most important value is always within view of the operator. It also has a backlit keypad making working in low, ambient light far easier. Most importantly, however, is that with a single control panel, both sides of the screed can now be controlled from one screen making it both substantially easier and safer fo

The new 1228 MOBA-MATIC II levelling control system is said to offer an array of innovative features that improve ease of use and safety. The control handset now comes with a large screen so that the most important value is always within view of the operator. It also has a backlit keypad making working in low, ambient light far easier.

Most importantly, however, is that with a single control panel, both sides of the screed can now be controlled from one screen making it both substantially easier and safer for the user. Another major upgrade has also been made to MOBA’s Sonic Ski sensor as it becomes the first device to come equipped with five sensors that more accurately determine the distance to the reference point.

    German firm MOBA is now offering a tool that can help boost the efficiency of soil compaction operations. The company’s MOBA MCA-2000 roller system is designed to help the roller driver achieve optimum compaction in earthworks. This is important as the load-bearing capacity of the subgrade of a construction site can be crucial and material compaction is vital. Uniform compaction can prevent subsequent plastic deformations and ground settling. But whether an area has been compacted to the specification is d

    US and European asphalt paving needs are different, but some firms are bridging that gap, reports Mike Woof. With a clear differentiation between the US and European asphalt paving markets, manufacturers from the latter are now developing machines aimed at the former. The US and European markets for paving machines have developed along very different lines. North American pavers are designed for high throughputs and high paving rates, having been designed to meet a need to build roads over long distances wi

    Advances in transmission technology will help to optimise machine performance – writes Mike Woof. As construction machines have become more sophisticated, so have the transmission systems used in items of equipment. Advances in electronics and software in particular have allowed the development of integrated transmissions. These operate more efficiently and help optimise power delivery from an engine, boosting torque response and cutting fuel consumption and emissions at the same time. The smart electronics
