Asphalt Paver
An asphalt paver is a machine that manages to distribute and shape asphalt. It is said that the first asphalt paver was used around 1935 when steel rails were used to spread the mix on the road while the machine was pulled forward.
Most pavers are made of steel and consist of a hopper at the front where the asphalt is emptied; it also uses augers and has a conveyor system that helps it move and spread the material.
Other features include hydraulic transmissions, controls, drive wheels or tracks, feed conveyors, and screw conveyors.
The paving process is done at 100 to 300 feet per minute. When using these machines, the hopper must be checked to ensure that it is full of asphalt, then a tractor is used to propel it forward, while the feed conveyors push the asphalt to the rear of the asphalt paving machine.
After this, the screw conveyors rotate to send the asphalt out. These tools are what allow the operator to control the asphalt. Finally, the paver unit takes care of the leveling and partial compaction of the asphalt.
Pavers offer you a lot of mobility for any asphalt project that requires a lot of movement, plus they allow for good visibility in operation, comfort, and safety.
