Mazio’s paving attachment SKID Paver for skid steer loaders

Mazio is offering a versatile skid steer-mounted paver attachment for use in utility jobs. The firm says that the unit suits use on asphalt patching and paving of roads, pathways, bicycle tracks, parking lots, driveways and utility trenches.

With a 1.4m³ hopper capacity, a paving width of up to 1.9m, and a paving speed of 25m/minute, the firm’s SKID Paver can be installed on any type of skid steer loader. The unit works with hot or cold mix asphalt, paving asphalt thicknesses of 50-250mm. Liquid propane gas (LPG) heaters heat material to 140°C. The 2.75m-wide hopper receives asphalt material directly from the haul truck, allowing for front or side loading and feeds to a 200mm auger.

The retractable hydraulic screed allows the operator to work around obstacles. The SKID Paver can be operated forward and backward from the cab or via a wireless remote control. All functions operate hydraulically, including auger, the screed lifting/lowering as well as the telescopic positioning and hopper opening/closing.

The 711kg SKID Paver unit features an adapter plate, control panel box and remote control, feeding auger, self-leveling system, screed heat system and an optional vibrator. The hopper opens into two widths and folds for easy transport. The machine will also spread sand, gravel and stones and concrete in flat layers.

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

    Improved surface quality and improved machine design are key trends in the asphalt paving sector, Mike Woof reports There is a big difference in asphalt paving techniques in North America and Europe. In North America, the need to construct long stretches of highway quickly resulted in wide pavers offering high throughput capacity, with compaction equipment then being used to achieve the required density of the various courses. In Europe's highway construction projects, distances tend to be shorter and contr
