Independent Material Handling System
The material handling system provides
precise mix delivery through the most
proven system in the industry. The
independent operation of the augers and
conveyors reduces component wear and
minimizes the potential for mix
segregation.
Reversible augers and conveyors assist
the crew by reducing handwork and
clean-up. The reversible auger feature
pulls asphalt back into the main screed
area when retracting the extenders while
the reversible conveyor feature pulls
asphalt back into the tunnels, resulting
in limited spillage. pg. 7
Maneuverability
Caterpillar asphalt pavers provide
maneuverability that is unmatched in
the industry. The AP600D utilizes three
steering modes including PAVE,
TRAVEL and MANEUVER. The
MANEUVER mode is unique to
Caterpillar. This mode provides a 1.4 m
turning radius that allows quick
maneuverability when moving to a new
starting position. pg. 6
Undercarriage
The wheel undercarriage utilizes four,
front solid rubber steering tyres that are
mounted on pairs of oscillating bogies
for maximum ground contact and
smooth operation. The front wheel
assist and all-wheel assist options
increase mobility in tough operating
conditions. pg. 6
Generator and Auxiliary Power Panel
The optional high capacity generator
quietly powers the standard electric
screed heat system for fast heat-up and
uniform screed plate temperatures.
The optional auxiliary power panel
provides power for lighting and job site
work tools. pg. 8
Versatility Defines the AP600D
The AP600D excels in a wide range of applications from routine commercial jobs to
demanding highway operations.
