Innovative Material Flow

        

  • Angular surface provides a kneading action as it passes through the grooves
  •     

  • Tapering flat surface at the back of the plates provides a smooth finished surface
  •     

  • Confined mixing action manipulates aggregates to reduce air voids and increase density while creating a uniform surface texture
  •     

  • Optimized aggregate structure promotes surface temperature uniformity for consistent compaction
  •     

  • Enhanced structural integrity minimizes roller shoving for better smoothness
  •     

  • Increased stiffness strengthens unconfined edges, promotes better joint matching

Increased Density and Smoothness

        

  • Kinetic mixing action helps increase the bond interface between the asphalt binder and aggregate
  •     

  • Mixing action of the angular plates is designed promote better thermal uniformity for improved compaction characteristics
  •     

  • Increased density can enable compaction to take place on a hotter surface shortening the compaction train
  •     

  • Increased stiffness can lead to better longitudinal edge profiles and higher joint densities due to less lateral movement of the mix when being compacted
  •     

  • Higher densities produced by the screed plates can lead to increased bonus opportunities

Faster Screed Plate Changes

        

  • Hardware-free screed plate installation saves time and effort
  •     

  • Tapered blocks integrated into the screed plates fit over the beveled edge of the adapter plates and are held in place with high-temperature silicone retainers that maintain tension for reliable performance
  •     

  • One-time adapter plate install attaches to the screed frame utilizing the existing screed plate orientation
  •     

  • Heating elements attach to the adapter plates
  •     

  • Modular screed plates come in 300 mm (12”) sections that weigh approximately 16 kg (35 lbs.). The plates are interchangeable across the screed width to help maximize wear.
  •     

  • The center screed section consists of 100 mm (4”) plates that weigh approximately 5 kg (12 lbs.). These narrow plates allow for crown at the center of the screed.
