BY AsphaltPro Staff

Among the paving products manufactured by Weiler Inc., Knoxville, Iowa, is the self-propelled road widener, available in the W330B, W430A, W530B and W730B models. The machines are designed to place a specific amount of material at the correct grade and slope in one pass, whether on a shoulder or other area with precise strikeoff.
For the W730B, the strikeoff tools are 25 inches tall, to widen from 1 foot to 14 feet, and are capable of placing material up to 12 inches above and below grade, according to the manufacturer. Multiple tool sizes, plus hydraulically adjustable tools, allow the operator to set precise strike-off and exact grade and slope. The controls are located on a single panel and the sliding control console enables both left and right side access to all machine controls. The operator is located back from the dump hopper and toward the outer edge of the machine for increased visibility. The hopper is 3.5 cubic yards, with a 30-inch-wide belt with a belt speed up to 800 feet per minute for quick placement of materials to either side of the machine. The hydraulically adjustable dump hopper accommodates various types of trucks.
