Versatile concrete paving

GOMACO has designed its new GP-2400 concrete paver to be highly versatile, able to slipform tight radii as well as widths of up to 7.3m. The machine runs on the firm's 3m series two tracks to permit the tight turn capability and also reduce transport width to just 3m. The sophisticated GOMACO G+ control system is fitted and this comes with a self diagnostics package for grade and steering. The system is said to feature easy-to-operate hardware with steering and travel dials as well as buttons to control ele

High paving productivity and versatility are claimed for GOMACO's new GP-2400 slipformer being launched early in 2011
218 Gomaco has designed its new GP-2400 concrete paver to be highly versatile, able to slipform tight radii as well as widths of up to 7.3m. The machine runs on the firm's 3m series two tracks to permit the tight turn capability and also reduce transport width to just 3m. The sophisticated GOMACO G+ control system is fitted and this comes with a self diagnostics package for grade and steering. The system is said to feature easy-to-operate hardware with steering and travel dials as well as buttons to control elevation. The G+ can operate in several languages and has a display screen showing parameters such as leg position, steering, travel information grade information and more.

The machine is equipped with a 3100 series open-front mould and a telescoping frame. With the standard telescoping frame it can pave widths from 3-5m, while frame inserts allow paving widths up to 7.3m and the machine is equipped with sixteen vibrator circuits as standard. Power comes from a Caterpillar C6.6 diesel rated at 129.5kW and the machine has two-speed track motors to maximise productivity by allowing faster travel between working areas.

    GOMACO is introducing the GT-3200 sidewalk paver with an adjustable aggregate base mold on the front and a sidewalk paving mold on the rear. This three-track paver is designed for zero-clearance sidewalk rehabilitation projects, to meet a contractor’s unique request. The front-mounted adjustable aggregate base mold spreads the base aggregate for the sidewalk. During the first pass, rock is placed on grade and an auger spreads the material, while three pan vibrators fitted to the mold start compaction. The b
