Slipforming traffic parapets
Slipform pavers are capable of slipforming stable parapets quickly and with economic efficiency. Reinforcing steel wire or pre-shaped reinforcing steel mats can be incorporated into the concrete profile by guiding them through the mould during the paving operation.
The offset mould can be mounted on the left or on the right side of the paver.
Shown here:
- SP 25 on 3 crawler tracks
- Concrete delivery via charging conveyor / cross-feeding auger
- Offset mould on the left side in the machine's direction of travel
Machines suitable for this application:
Slipforming water gutters or canals
Slipform pavers are capable of producing water gutters or canals of the most diverse cross-sections or shapes. The vibrators are placed inside the concrete mould when paving in offset, and are arranged so as to ensure uniform consolidation of the concrete even in small or complex paving moulds.
Shown here:
- SP 25 on 4 crawler tracks
- Concrete delivery via charging auger and chute
- Offset mould on the left side in the machine's direction of travel
Machines suitable for this application:
Slipforming curbs
Slipform pavers are extraordinarily fast and efficient when it comes to producing curbs. The paving mould can be mounted on the left or on the right side of the chassis.
Shown here:
- SP 15 on 3 crawler tracks
- Concrete delivery via charging auger and chute
- Offset mould on the left side in the paver's direction of travel
Machines suitable for this application:
Paving paths in offset application
Depending on the number and arrangement of their crawler tracks, Wirtgen slipform pavers are capable of also paving paths and other concrete surfaces in offset application.
Shown here:
- SP 25 on 4 crawler tracks
- Concrete delivery via charging conveyor
- Cantilevering offset mould on the paver's left side when seen in the direction of travel
Machines suitable for this application:
- SP 15
- SP 25
- SP 500
- SP 850 (consult factory)
Paving different profiles in offset application
Offset moulds can be designed in almost any given shape, which allows kerbstones, drainage gutters, cable ducts or special profiles to be fully integrated into their environment or to be incorporated into existing structures.
Shown here:
- SP 150 on 3 crawler tracks
- Concrete delivery via charging conveyor
- Combined profile of traffic parapet and road shoulder
Machines suitable for this application:
- SP 15
- SP 25
- SP 500
- SP 850 (consult factory)
Applications of the slipform paver SP 25 in inset paving
Paving different profiles in inset application
Inset paving is capable of producing any given monolithic profile. Contrary to offset paving, the paving mould is mounted between the slipform paver's crawler tracks.
Shown here:
- SP 25 on 4 crawler tracks
- Concrete delivery via charging conveyor
- Paving a V-shaped canal
Machines suitable for this application:
- SP 15
- SP 25
- SP 500
- SP 850 (consult factory)
Slipforming rural roads
The concrete pavement is slipformed between the paver's crawler tracks. Space requirements for the job site are kept to a minimum, because Wirtgen slipform pavers have a small loading gauge.
Shown here:
- SP 25 on 4 crawler tracks
- Concrete delivery via charging auger
- Paving a 3 m wide rural road
Machines suitable for this application:
- SP 25
- SP 500
- SP 500 Vario
- SP 850
- SP 850 Vario
