Specifications
Operator-friendly dashboard
 |
Operation of the machine is kept simple with the new dashboard and screed control panel, created specifically for the AFT 500. The panel is simple to understand and operate, yet provides advantages such as lit buttons for optimal visibility when working at night. Individual control unit parts allow economical replacement.
A central 5” color display provides the operator with key information regarding the ongoing paving process. The display also enables simple troubleshooting. A standard CAN bus connection between the individual control units makes replacement easy and allows for reprogramming as needed. |
Excellent visibility
 |
The paver design, sliding seat and dashboard enable the operator to see all phases of the paving process, which improves productivity, quality and safety. |
Leveling system choices
 |
The control unit allows the installation of any common leveling system- the choice is up to the customer. The installation plug is pre-mounted and allows for quick connection to the leveling sensors and controls. |
Low discharge heights
|
Lower height reduces material spillage that can cause mat defects. Hopper height also matches trucks of varied sizes, increasing fleet utilisation and making it easier to find outside haulers with appropriately sized vehicles. |
