Trimble’s Horizontal Steering Control and automatic screed width control on Vögele Navitronic asphalt pavers ensure accurate pavement placement. Whether paving linear paths or curves, the system automates steering and screed adjustments based on 3D designs, eliminating operator errors.

• Lay surfaces with high accuracy: Achieve precision to within 0.01 feet (3 millimetres).
• Reduce material waste: Minimise the use of expensive asphalt materials.
• Pave within tighter tolerances: Get closer to minimal asphalt thickness specifications.
• Save on labour costs: Control the screed with a single operator.
• Simplify operations: Reduce operator errors with an intuitive, easy-to-use display interface.
• Handle complex designs: Effortlessly pave transitions, super-elevated curves, and frequently changing cross slopes.
• Earn smoothness bonuses: Achieve accuracy and smoothness specifications, increasing profitability.

The Trimble Roadworks 3D Paving Control Platform uses advanced technology to guide screeds with precision, paving to variable depth and slope based on 3D design models.

• Remove high and low areas early with less expensive first-layer materials.
• Achieve smoother roads while using less asphalt than traditional methods.
• Eliminate the need for time-consuming stringline setups.

Pave to a Design

• Create 3D models in Trimble Business Center and load them onto the in-cab display.
• Use the SPS930 Universal Total Station to compare screed position and slope against the 3D model.
• Automatically guide the screed to ensure accurate material thickness and slope.

The Trimble Roadworks 2D Paving Control Platform provides a cost-effective solution for projects requiring fixed-thickness paving.

• Surface Reference
  Sonic tracers calculate average elevations by referencing the existing surface, ensuring smooth paving.
• Stringline Reference
  Sonic tracers monitor the paver's position relative to stringline, providing corrective guidance for lateral movements.
• Slope Sensor Reference
  Accurately pave cross slopes of up to 0.05% using an angle sensor designed specifically for asphalt pavers, requiring minimal recalibration.
• Laser Plane Reference
  Trimble’s LR410 Laser Receiver, paired with GL700 Grade Laser series, controls asphalt thickness by referencing laser planes.
