Terex Cedarapids CR 300L Series asphalt pavers

Sept. 28, 2010

According to Terex Roadbuilding, the new Terex Cedarapids CR 300L Series asphalt pavers (the rubber-tire CR352L, rubber-track CR362L and steel-track CR362LS) now provide more "highway-class" features in an 8-foot commercial paver. The new, longer machines (by 9 inches) provide an 11-percent increase in hopper capacity (to 10 tons), but are no heavier than their predecessor models, facilitating transport. The material-feed system in the new pavers is handled by the same heavy-duty chain, sprocket and slat-bar delivery system used in the company’s larger CR400 and CR500 Series mainline machines. Also new are Sauer-Danfoss 90-Series propel pumps, which run at higher pressures than in predecessor models and provide approximately 18 percent more tractive effort. The new models, using a 165-hp Cummins 6BTAA5.9 diesel engine, provide paving widths from 8 to 18 feet, and screed choices include the electric or fuel-oil-heated Stretch 16, the electric VersaScreed 8 or the fuel-oil-heated Fastach 8.
