Compaction

Autonomous rolling, paver-mounted thermal profiling, and robotic striping streamline asphalt paving by minimizing human error, optimizing material application, and ensuring consistent quality, as demonstrated in North Dakota’s innovative Highway 14 project.

The SDX screed-type test in North Dakota demonstrated that innovation, including the use of patterned screeds and advanced technology, can increase asphalt density and improve ride quality, with Central Specialties Inc. achieving significant improvements in both metrics through side-by-side comparisons of the SDX and traditional screed plates.

How to enhance paving operations, customer satisfaction and pavement life with your best quality control practices.

SAKAI America introduced two new machines at World of Asphalt 2024:

The first production SW884ND 79-inch asphalt roller featuring Guardman® safety technology and a prototype electric walk-behind double drum roller co-developed with Honda.

Superior Paving uses SEISMIC tech in asphalt paving application

Ammann, Langenthal, Switzerland, offers its new light tandem roller with “petrol” power and side-free drums to enable compaction in tight job sites.

As a company in the asphalt industry begins to grow, managers find themselves ready to take the next step in their business. Just buying a paver is not the answer. In this article, we will discuss how to assess your first compactor needs.
