The AP-1050B is a high-production machine designed for interstates, highways, subdivisions, airports and other similar sized projects. It is also effective on new construction projects because of its track undercarriage. The steel track undercarriage uses field-proven Cat D3 Track-type Tractor technology. This method of propulsion offers advantages when operating on unstable bases or on steep grades. Excellent tractive effort, low ground pressure and enhanced flotation are some of the advantages. The new model is suited to all geographic regions that favor track pavers. Typical characteristics of these areas include sandy, loose soil; sub-base or base materials that do not permit good traction by wheel pavers; and areas with significant grades.

The electrical wiring is protected by an articulated vinyl enclosure.Speed Control
Speed control allows the operator to dial a maximum paving speed. Once set, the paver returns to the preset speed when the propel lever is in full forward position.Feeder/Auger Control System
The feeder/auger control system gives precise mix delivery through the most advanced material handling system.Feeders and Augers
Left and right feeders and left and right augers are all controlled independently, eliminating the need for feeder gates.Feeder Speeds
Once the feeder speeds are set, the ratio of feeder speed to the maximum auger speed is automatically maintained by the material handling controller, regardless of propel rate or paving widths.Controlled Mix Delivery
To control mix delivery, the operator sets a speed rate for each feeder and will maintain the desired mix level in the left and right auger chambers.Component Wear Reduced
Component wear is reduced because full feeders run at slower speeds.Potential for Mix Segregation Minimized
The potential for mix segregation is minimized because the head of material remains constant.Gateless Feeders
Slower running feeders reduce wear and segregation.Gateless Feeders Always Run Full
The gateless feeders always run full of mix regardless of the speed required to fill the auger chamber.Changes in Feeder Speed
When changes in feeder speed are needed, delivery of mix to the augers is immediate.Drag Pans
