AP500 Paver

DESCRIPTION

The AP500 asphalt paver and SE47 Series screeds are designed for urban streets, parking lots, rural roads and many other small to intermediate-type applications. This paver and screed combination provides high throughput capability as-well-as application versatility, easy set-up, and a wide paving range.

More Performance and Flexibility

  • Powerful C4.4 engine delivers 110 kW (148 hp) of power that supports increased feeder system capacity as well as hopper inserts for continuous paving
  • Tight 90 degreeturning capability enables the paver to rotate and cover tracks on a return paving pass
  • Standard paving range utilizing the SE47 V screed is 2.4 m - 4.7 m (8' - 15'6") with a maximum width of 6.1 m (20')
  • Standard paving range utilizing the SE47 FM screed is 2.4 m - 4.7 m (8' - 15'6") with a maximum width of 6.2 m (20' 6")
  • Paving depths up to 250 mm (10") supports aggregate paving applications

Transport Made Easy

  • Machine weight of less than 14.5 mt (32,000 lb) paver and screed combination enables easy transport on a variety of trailer types
  • Length of less than 5.65 m (18' 6") and width of 2.6 m (8' 6") accommodates machine transport without special permits
  • The front-loading angle of 17 degrees and high front bumper clearance reduces the need for additional blocking when loading onto various trailer designs
  • Front, middle, and rear tie-down locations make securing the paver highly efficient for quick travel to the next job site

Exceptional Mobility

  • Wheel undercarriage provides exceptional mobility and fast travel speeds for unmatched maneuverability around the job site
  • Excellent traction is delivered through the 14.00x20 sand-rib or 17.5 R25 radial drive tires
  • Front-wheel assist option provides power to the rear set of bogie wheels for excellent performance in tough conditions
  • All-wheel drive option utilizes a flow divider to deliver power to both sets of front bogie wheels for additional pulling power
  • High ground clearance of 197 mm (7.8") helps avoid storm drains, curbs, and other obstacles

Smooth Material Flow

  • Optimized hopper design with low truck entry height and short front apron enhances material flow while simplifying clean-out
  • Enhanced feeder system with 355 mm (14") diameter augers provides consistent material flow across the screed for efficient flow at both narrow and wide paving widths
  • Confined auger chamber keeps material moving and helps eliminate stagnate cold patches
  • Independent control of each material feed sensor when utilizing a cut-off shoe, simply turn off the sensor for manual proportional feed control

More Comfort

  • Ventilation system draws fumes from the auger chamber and redirects them away from the operator for a more comfortable working environment
  • Dual independent consoles provide operation from either side of the machine for optimal visibility to curbs, edges, and transverse joints
  • Dual independent seats swing out 40 degrees beyond the platform for good visibility to curbs and obstacles
  • Optimized height and integrated exhaust provide unobstructed visibility around the machine
  • Optional screed and paver mounted umbrellas offer protection from direct sunlight
  • Heated seat option delivers comfort in cool weather
  • High visibility 76 mm (3") seat belt assists with crew safety compliance

Easy Viewing Displays

  • High-definition, touchscreen displays with adjustable brightness control for all types of lighting conditions, including direct sunlight
  • High-visibility touch screen operating display with simplified menu structures, intuitive graphics, and short-cut keys help simplify machine adjustments
  • Single-touch functions from main screen include screed heat, washdown system, vibratory activation, ventilation system, accessory panel
  • Operating displays can be tailored to specific language requirements with multiple options available
  • Wash-down system includes level indication

Screeds that Deliver Quality

  • SE-Series screeds deliver excellent ride, density, and mat texture while providing superior adjustment capabilities
  • Screeds with front-mounted extenders and rear-mounted extenders are available
  • Cat Grade Control or Basic Grade Control options available

Low Owning and Operating Costs

  • Durable Cat C4.4 engine provides 110 kW (148 hp) of power and meets U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final and EU Stage V emissions
  • Exclusive Eco-mode and Automatic Engine Speed Control reduce fuel consumption and lower sound levels for better comfort and communication
  • Conveyor bed plates and chain guards designed to minimize labor requirements and provide lower cost replacement
  • Maintenance-free high torque motors reduce

Product Link™ Elite
