Technology That Works For You
- Pave Start Assistant saves set-up profiles for repeatable use on future job sites including: tow-point height, screed heat temperature, paving speed, paving width, paving depth, crown, extender slope and height, screed assist, and screed locking features
- A hopper level sensor (option) with temperature indication keeps the operator informed of material height and delivery temperatures, indicators are located in each tractor display
- Exclusive screed heating system monitors elements for failure conditions and helps eliminate unnecessary replacement
- Cat Grade Control option is integrated into the tractor and screed displays for optimized operator efficiency
- Thermal mapping option utilizes an infra-red camera mounted on a fixed-position mast that captures the entire width of the asphalt surface behind the screed. An LCD display mounted near the screed console provides real-time visibility to the surface being paved
Quality Results, Higher Earnings
- Versatile screed designs deliver excellent ride, density, and mat texture while providing superior adjustment; available with front-mount extenders, rear-mount extenders, or tamper-bar systems

Cat Grade with Grade and Slope For Pavers
The Cat® Grade and Slope system is designed to remove irregularities from the paved surface. The system consists of sensors to control elevation and slope. These sensors can work individually or together to make automatic elevation or cross slope adjustments and maintain the targeted values. Averaging beams equipped with multiple sensors provide a longer averaging area to help remove irregularites for smoother transitions.
-
Cat Grade with Thermal Mapping For Pavers
Thermal Mapping monitors the surface temperatures of the asphalt utilizing an infra-red camera and a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) enabled by RTK accuracy. Viewing real-time temperatures, contractors can identify variations and take action to manage the plant to paver delivery process and fine-tune paving practices for more uniform lay-down temperatures.
