How can users and machines work together even better? What synergies do WIRTGEN GROUP plants deliver in asphalt production? How can software solutions support all those involved in the construction process? RoadNews issue 09 has a particular focus on teamwork, so among other things, we visited a mixing plant operator in the Swedish town of Furuby, accompanied a paving team in Wilhelmshaven (North Germany) and took a closer look at the “Mill Assist” assistance system.

In this issue, find out how WIRTGEN GROUP innovations launched at the Bauma trade fair impact on everyday operations. For example, the W 210 Fi large milling machine from WIRTGEN: milling machine operator Valentino Pivotto tested the machine during rehabilitation of the A31 in Northern Italy. Articles on HCQ Navigator and WITOS Paving Plus also enable you to join us on the “Digital Job Site”.

Smart technologies is the watchword. For instance, WIRTGEN’s new generation of large milling machines can boost the efficiency and quality of milling work and document daily milling output including consumption data and a site plan by means of Connected Milling. As of now, KLEEMANN crushing and screening plants can be equipped with the WITOS FleetView telematics solution.
