Gomaco Introduces New Savvy Concrete Paving Technology

Gomaco has always been extremely savvy about concrete slipform paving and building the machines and technology needed for the highest quality pavement. Gomaco’s savvy new technology was on display at World of Concrete 2022.

The Gomaco GP3 slipform paver was featured in the Gomaco booth. It has the capability of slipforming up to 30 feet (9.14 m) wide. It’s available as a two-track or four-track paver but was on display in four-track model and featured several new savvy innovations. Gomaco’s engineers have advanced paver controls and automation and are introducing new intelligent valves on Gomaco’s line of equipment, including the GP3 paver. The new self-programming valves eliminate the need to set thresholds. The valves, working with the paver’s G+® control system, understands and can automatically react and self-adjust to the dynamics of the machine. Initially the valve reacts to the machine set-up and adjusts accordingly, but the operator can make fine-tuned sensitivity adjustments from any display at any time. Gomaco’s G+ software recognizes the change requests and immediately makes those adjustments. This allows automatic correction of the paver’s elevation, steering, pivoting, travel control, anti-slip positive traction of the tracks and more.
