The grounds of a metal recycling yard in Brigachtal, Baden-Württemberg, take a beating from daily heavy truck traffic. To rehabilitate the 700 m² confined, complex asphalt area, the construction company chose the new SUPER 1803-5 X wheeled paver from Vögele. Its strengths: high maneuverability and precision.

Wirtgen SP 33: With Flexibility and Precision on the Road to Success

Two construction sites, numerous challenges, and a machine that confirms its reputation as a real all-rounder. In Austria, an SP 33 paved an agricultural track path in Sieghartskirchen and, immediately afterwards, a new curb and gutter profile in the Semmering Tunnel – all within the space of one week. That two such radically different profiles were able to be paved with outstanding precision in such a short time is all down to the quick and uncomplicated reconfiguration of the slipform paver – and once again shows its amazing flexibility for a wide range of paving projects.
