Asphalt
wheeled paver is widely used paver machine that manipulates asphalt for
the construction and the maintenance of roads. Like other pavers it too
has a tractor and screed as its main components. As it has a wheel
drive, axle, two-speed gearbox, and two-speed hydraulic drive motor is
installed.
As the crawler paver moves forward, material is discharged from the
delivery lorry, in a tipping action. The mixed material is limited to
the width of the screed by side gates attached to the screed.
However it
should be noted that the height of the asphalt, which is in front of the
screed, should be maintained at a constant level. Some of the other
constituents of the wheeled asphalt plants are push rollers, hoppers,
conveyors augers and side arms.
