Highway paving requires maximum width capability (12m+), high production rates, and superior grade control. Focus on total cost per lane-mile and long-term reliability.
Urban projects need compact machines with low noise levels, excellent maneuverability, and emissions compliance for residential areas.
Airport paving demands absolute precision, superior mat quality, and 24/7 support capability. Smoothness and density tolerances are critical.
Residential paving benefits from compact, quiet machines with narrow width capability and low operating costs for smaller projects.
Parking lot applications require good maneuverability, variable width capability, and integrated compaction for one-pass operations.
Industrial paving requires heavy-duty construction, excellent parts availability, and ability to handle thick lifts in challenging conditions.
This analysis is enriched with real-world inspection data from the Heavy Vehicle Inspection (HVI) App, providing insights from 8,000+ paver inspections across global construction sites. The HVI App's digital inspection platform captures critical performance metrics, maintenance patterns, and operational efficiency data directly from the field.
Standardized 120+ point inspections with photo documentation and real-time reporting
Track screed temperature, hydraulic fluid temps, and engine performance metrics
Monitor mat quality, grade accuracy, and production rates for continuous improvement
