• Optional Dynapac Compaction Analyzer for Asphalt (DCA-A) tracks the number of passes for easy control of the rolling pattern

The CR662RM RoadMix material transfer vehicle and paver features a variable-pitch in-hopper auger design that increases material throughput.

• Production capabilities can exceed 500 tph
• Constant-diameter augers continue to reblend 100% of material
• Paver setup incorporates two 5-ft.-long spread auger sections with two independently controlled, variable-speed outboard drive motors
• Three screed models for paving widths up to 30 ft. at depths of up to 12 in.

The upgraded DV201, DV202 and DV204 tandem-drum vibratory rollers feature more powerful, Tier III engines that deliver from 31 to 48 hp, up from 27 to 38 hp.

• Features include high centrifugal forces, dual frequency and a hydrostatic drive for better traction and smooth performance even on steep slopes
• Operating weights of 5,510 to 7,720 lbs
• Drum widths from 39.4 to 51.2 in.
• Drum frequency from 3,180 to 3,720 vpm with centrifugal forces from 4,580 to 8,877 lbs.

The Easy Screed III adapts to highway-class pavers.

• Electrical heating system

FORTA Corp introduces FORTA-FI, a next-generation fiber blend for reinforcing asphalt.

• Designed to reduce rutting and cracking
• Unique blend of reinforcing fibers added to the asphalt mixture contain aramid and polyolefin fibers and other materials known for strength, durability and binding properties
• For hot mix asphalt (HMA), warm mix asphalt (WMA), and hot/cold patch (PAT)

The HD+ 120 and HD+ 140 rollers - the first of the HD+ line - are articulated tandem rollers, with respective operating weights of 13.2 and 15.4 tons, and respective drum widths of 78 and 84 inches. Available in three models: the HD+ 120 or 140 VV, with conventional vibration in both drums; the HD+ 120 or 140 VO, with vibration in the front and exclusive Oscillation compaction in the rear; and the HD+ 120 or 140 VV HF, offering high-frequency vibration to 4,020 vpm. Frequency and amplitude can now be controlled independently on either drum, providing increased flexibility in the roll train. Amplitude and frequency adjustment on the HD+ models can be done by the operator on the dashboard. New on the HD+ models is the ability to pivot both the seat and the console across the full width of the big HD+ platform, for much better control and visibility, particularly to the drum edges. Also unique is the HD+ Series' offset capability, which is close to 7 inches. That means an operator can keep the front drum on the hot material and offset the rear drum so it can bridge between the pre-compacted hot material and the cold joint, potentially saving a pass for higher productivity, and avoiding travel in the other lane of traffic, for enhanced safety. New drum edge lights are now standard on the Hamm HD+ Series. Halogen lights mounted on the ROPS are available either in a four-light or six-light configuration. A xenon light option on the ROPS for those markets with this requirement also is available for use where it's specified.
