Vögele’s SUPER 2000-3i Tracked Paver Designed for Large-Scale Projects

The 10-foot, SUPER 2000-3i tracked paver from Vögele, a division of The Wirtgen Group, Antioch, Tennessee, was designed primarily for highways and large-scale projects. It comes with Vögele’s user-friendly ErgoPlus 3 operating system and can be combined with the VF 600 extending screeds (with extending units mounted in front of the basic screed), or with the VR 600 or AB 600 screeds (with extending units mounted behind the basic screed). The AB 600 extending screed has both vibrators and a tamper for optimum compaction, making it ideal for paving recycled material.

The 2000-3i features a 6-cylinder diesel engine rated at 250 horsepower (186 kW). Intelligent engine management with ECO mode supports low fuel consumption and low-noise operation.

It features large material hoppers with a capacity of up to 16.5 U.S. tons (15 tonnes), wide hopper sides and sturdy rubber baffles. The hydraulically operated hopper front is designed to prevent mix from spilling when trucks change. The wide conveyor tunnel and separate hydraulic drives for the conveyors and augers support a high laydown rate of up to 1,540 U.S. tons per hour (1,400 tonnes/h).

Large-diameter auger blades of 16 inches (40 cm) with a precise pitch offer an optimum head of material in front of the screed when paving across large widths or at lower engine speeds. Specially developed by Vögele, the unique auger flight design supports a long service life.
