Leica PaveSmart 3D for Curb & Gutter

Providing a precise, smooth, accurate curb for new asphalt is crucial for the quality, rideability, service life and whole-life costs of the new asphalt surface. Installing stringline for curb applications is costly and time-consuming, especially for tight radius work

Traditionally requires pre-survey, hubs and data to be provided to thehubs and data to be provided to the stringline crew This can lead to mistakes, and significant remedial costs & timeWith Leica PaveSmart 3D, machine steer, elevation and cross slope are automatically controlled without stringlines gLeica PaveSmart 3D improves operational safety on site and increases productivity, accuracy and efficiency

and efficiency

Page 12: Curb & Gutter, Milling, Asphalt & Concrete Paving...High-precision milling is highly desirable, to minimise the cost of new asphalt. Increasingly, modern roads are being re-engineered

The 3D AdvantageUse digital data, directly from the design

No staking-out and stringline setup errors

No stakes hubs or stringlines requiredNo stakes, hubs or stringlines requiredEliminates most setting-out costsEasier jobsite logistics, truck accessWork easier in narrow work corridors

No waiting on surveyors, stringline crews, grade checkers etc.

Improved machine productivityWork anywhere you have data, not where the stringlines happen to be ready forWork any time of day or night

Increased safetyyNo more ‘trip hazards’, ideal for hazardous worksites (e.g. highway lane rentals)

Increased productivity

Curb & Gutter – Small Radii Parking LotsFred Weber, St Louis, Missouri, USA, Summer 2009

Billy Graves, Foreman, Fred Weber:“We would figure on finishingonly two islands a day withhandforming. With GOMACO and Leica, we’re doing eight a day. It’s a big advantage for us and giving ussome excellent production...”

“We’re now slipping the radii and the straightaways and the Leica isthe straightaways and the Leica is doing a great job. We’re averaging around 18 feet (5.5 m) per minutewith no string.”

Leica PaveSmart 3D for MillingLeica PaveSmart 3D improves operational safety on site, increases productivity, accuracy and efficiency.

Providing a precise, smooth, accurate foundation surface for new asphalt is crucial for the quality, rideability, service life and whole-life costs of the new asphalt surface.

High-precision milling is highly desirable, to minimise the cost of new asphalt.

Increasingly, modern roads are being re-engineered to meet higher traffic speed and axle-load demands. Milling machines are used to remove varying depths of material, or alter the surface levels, profile and drainage characteristic of the road surface.

Traditionally this is a complex, manual process, often requiring a great deal of pre-survey, and detailed manual road-design data to be provided to the machine crew at all times. This can lead to mistakes, over-milling and subsequently higher costs to reinstate more asphalt than is neededreinstate more asphalt than is needed.

Leica PaveSmart 3D measures the machine’s position and adjusts milling depth and cross-slope automatically.

Sideplate (yoyo regulated) milling depth control is also fully integrated

…easier paving in “zero clearance” situations, e.g. bridge decks, urban streets, railway cuttings, tunnels, narrow motorway lanes?

…no human error from stringline setup?
