Carlson Paving to display CP60 & CP65 wheel pavers at Bauma
Carlson Paving plans to debut its two new wheeled city pavers at this year's Bauma trade show slated for April 8-14 at Munich in Germany. With these construction equipment products, the company seeks a broader global reach by entering the 1.8-meter (5.9-foot) city paver market. Designed for paving paths, city streets and rural roads, the CP60 and CP65 wheeled pavers are powered by Deutz engines in either Tier 4 Final or Tier 3 packages. They have an application rate of 250 metric tons per hour and speeds up to 9.9 mph. The equipment feature Carlson's EZC34 electric-heated screed, which has a paving width of 1.8 to 3.4 meters (5.9 to 11.1 feet). The screed is available in vibratory and tamper bar models and can be extended to 4.5 meters (14.7 feet) with bolt-on extensions. The introduction of the CP60 and CP65 marks a historic milestone for Carlson, said president of Carlson Paving Products, Chris Colwell, adding that as a major manufacturer of small pavers and market leader in asphalt screed technology in North America and Australia, these city pavers are a natural fit as the company expands its product offering to a wider global audience.
