Wirtgen launches paving train for construction of concrete roads

Wirtgen has launched a new paving train for construction of concrete roads and other structures. The train starts with the company’s new WPS 102i Placer/Spreader and its SP 94i slipform paver newly equipped with TeleMold for quickly changing paving widths. The third and final piece in the train is the TCM 180i texture curing machine.

Wirtgen showcased the placer and paver with TeleMold as world premieres at World of Concrete earlier this year and will bring them out for October’s Bauma trade show in Munich, Germany.

WPS 102i Placer/Spreader: The WPS 102i heads up the train by placing and spreading concrete in cases where there is continuously reinforced concrete pavement. The material can be placed from an offset position to the side and spread evenly across in front of the main paver. It can spread 20 to 40 feet wide, up from a max 24 feet with the company’s WPS 62i.

Wirtgen SP 94i slipform paver: The 32-foot-wide inset paver is designed for contractors working on wide roads and highways, airport aprons, taxiways and runways in which various widths are required on a single job. Without the TeleMold, changing paving width can take up to a day or a day-and-a-half, which costs contractors in downtime and labor. With TeleMold, Nash says, width can be changed within in one hour to an hour-and-a-half.

TCM 180i: The third piece in the train is the TCM 180i texture curing machine, the TCM 180i. The self-propelled texture/curing machine is equipped with an automatic spraying and brooming system to create the desired surface texture.
