Features

Compact Size, Big Opportunities

The compact size and small footprint simplify maneuverability in tight spaces for efficient work in urban-type applictions
Tight 90º turning capability enables the paver to rotate and cover tracks on a return paving pass
Standard paving range utilizing the SE47 V screed is 2.4 m - 4.7 m (8' - 15' 6") with a maximum width of 6.1 m (20')
Standard paving range utilizing the SE47 FM screed is 2.4 m - 4.7 m (8' - 15' 6") with a maximum width of 5.9 m (19' 6")
Standard paving range utilizing the SE47 VT screed is 2.4 m - 4.7 m (7' 10" - 15' 4") with a maximum width of 6.0 m (19' 8")
Paving depths up to 300 mm (12") supports aggregate paving applications

Transport Made Easy

Machine weight of 14.9 mt (32,913 lb) paver and screed combination enables easy transport on a variety of trailer types
Length of less than 5.6 m (18' 4") and width of 2.55 m (8' 4") accommodates machine transport without special permits. When equipped with 225 mm (9') extensions, transport width is 3 m (10') and paving width extends to 5.1 m (16')
The front-loading angle of 18º and high front bumper clearance reduces the need for additional blocking when loading onto various trailer designs
Raising or retracting the canopy is fast and easy with both electric or manual options available
Front, middle, and rear tie-down locations make securing the paver efficient for quick travel to the next job site

Exceptional Mobility

Mobil-trac™ undercarriage provides exceptional mobility, outstanding traction, and fast travel speeds for unmatched maneuverability around the job site
Counter-rotating tracks provide excellent maneuverability in tight quarters
Self-tensioning accumulators, center guide blocks, and rugged internal belt cables help ensure durability
Rubber-coated components help shed asphalt and prevent accumulation
Efficient track plow design pushes material away from the tracks and helps eliminate cold patches caused by track compression

Smooth Material Flow

Single amplitude tamper system with variable frequency screed plate vibration delivers excellent material flow and tight mat textures
Low truck entry height and short front apron enhances material flow while simplifying clean out
Feeder system design with 355 mm (14") diameter augers provides consistent material flow across the screed for efficient flow at both narrow and wide paving widths
Narrow auger chamber keeps material moving and helps eliminate stagnate patches
Independent control of each material feed sensor, simply turn off the sensor for manual proportional feed control

More Comfort

Optional ventilation system draws fumes from the auger chamber and redirects them away from the operator for a more comfortable working environment
Single sliding console enables operation from either side of the machine
Dual independent seats swing out 40º beyond the platform for good visibility to curbs and obstacles
Optimized height and integrated exhaust provide unobstructed visibility around the machine
Optional screed and paver mounted umbrellas offer protection from direct sunlight
Heated seat option delivers comfort in cool weather conditions
High visibility 76 mm (3") seat belt helps with crew safety compliance

Easy Viewing Displays

High-definition, touchscreen displays with adjustable brightness control for all types of lighting conditions, including direct sunlight
New touch screen operating display with simplified menu structures, intuitive graphics, and short-cut keys help simplify machine adjustments
Single-touch functions from main screen include screed heat, wash-down system, vibratory activation, ventilation system, and the accessory panel
Cat® Grade Control or Basic Grade Control options available
Operating displays can be tailored to specific language requirements with multiple options available
Wash-down system includes level indication

Sustainability

The Cat® C3.6 engine is available in configurations that meet EU Stage V emission standards.
Cat EU Stage V diesel engines are required to use ULSD (ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel with 15 ppm of sulfur or less) or ULSD blended with the following lower-carbon intensity fuels up to: 20% biodiesel FAME (fatty acid methyl ester) or 100% renewable diesel, HVO (hydrotreated vegetable oil) and GTL (gas-to-liquid) fuels. Refer to guidelines for successful application. Please consult your Cat dealer or “Caterpillar Machine Fluids Recommendations” (SEBU6250) for details.
The engine, fuel and hydraulic systems are equipped with ecology drains for easy servicing and to help prevent spillage.
Cat Scheduled Oil Sampling (S•O•S℠) Services helps reveal excessive wear, contaminated fluids or other “unseen” issues that can shorten component life. In many cases, you can extend oil and coolant change intervals by using fluid monitoring. Consult your Cat dealer or the machine’s operation and maintenance manual for more information.
Cat Grade with Grade and Slope for Asphalt Pavers allows for accurate material planning to help reduce overages during the paving process and increase final project quality for a longer lasting road surface.
Don’t waste fuel idling. Cat VisionLink® online fleet monitoring helps you manage idle time and reduce fuel burn and greenhouse gas emissions.
VisionLink displays the CO2 emissions for monitored assets, calculated by fuel type for the Runtime Fuel Burned each day in a selected date range.
