Having operators who can stay alert for longer periods of time to perform effective rolling patterns can benefit from the AM/FM Bluetooth radio, The heated seat with spacious seating and legroom, unobstructed sight lines, and climate control functions that can help operators perform at their best.
The vertical edge created by the cut-off wheel helps provide a stable vertical face for joint matching on the next paving pass. The bevel edge options provide sloped profiles for smoother transitions on and off the paved surface. Three versions are available to help contractors meet job site requirements.
The new mapping display provides an enhanced on-screen visual for easier recognition and touchscreen capability for simplified setup. Cat Compact software/hardware helps operators visualize the coverage area while recording pass-count and temperature data. The system uses infrared temperature sensors and GPS mapping to keep the operator informed of current mat temperatures, machine position, pass-count and pass coverage. This intuitive system enhances nighttime performance, while also capturing data for future process analysis and quality control documentation. When combined with drum edge and drum surface lighting, Cat Compact helps extend the workday and increase daily production.
Tight turns on hot asphalt can tear the mat that can lead to quality issues. The dual split-drum option on the front drum helps eliminate tears when maneuvering around obstacles or when compacting tight turns by reducing the speed of the inner drum half. The split drum option can be a great solution for parking lots and driveway approaches.
