The SUPER 1703-3i 8-ft. paver meets the demands placed on asphalt pavers in the North American road construction industry, especially when combined with the VF 500 front-mounted screed. With its compact dimensions and Pivot Steer brake, the wheeled paver features excellent maneuverability, and enables pave speeds of up to 250 ft. per minute. Achieving a maximum laydown rate of 770 tons per hour and pave widths ranging from 8 ft. to 15 ft., 6 in., and fitted with bolt-on extensions up to 19 ft., 6 in., the Universal Class paver is ideal for large commercial applications.
The paver and screed are equipped with the user-friendly ErgoPlus 3 operating system. It makes controlling the machine, including the Niveltronic Plus system for automated grade and slope control, very easy and convenient. The Vögele EcoPlus low-emissions package cuts fuel consumption by up to 25%, depending on the application and workload, and significantly reduces noise. When equipped with Vögele RoadScan, the non-contacting temperature measurement system, checking and documenting the paving temperature is very easy. Temperature monitoring across the entire surface makes quality measurable.
