Get the Most Out of Your MOBA-Matic Paving System
Get practical tips from MOBA Field Service expert Jon Lano on getting the most out of your MOBA-Matic system for consistent paving results.
Beter paving starts with
better control
From grade and slope control to smoothness and paving quality, MOBA helps paving crews manage variables that can be measured and controlled - so they canproduce more consistent results in real-world conditions.
Paving is a process. Every part affects the finished mat.
Grade, slope, existing surface conditions, screed response, temperature and operator decisions all influence the finished mat. The challenge is that they do not work independently — a change in one part of the paving process can affect the result behind the screed.
REFERENCE SURFACE
Grade, slope and existing surface conditions create the reference the paving system has to follow.
SCREED CONTROL
The screed must respond consistently as conditions change to maintain the intended grade and cross slope.
TEMPERATURE
Temperature differences in the asphalt can affect paving quality and the consistency of the finished mat.
OPERATOR DECISIONS
Machine setup, adjustments and decisions made during paving also influence the final result.
Find the right solution for your paving application.
The right setup depends on what you are trying to improve. Start with the paving result, then match the system and reference method to the application.
GRADE & SLOPE CONTROL
MOBA-Matic II
Automatically control screed height and cross slope to maintain the specified profile throughout the paving pass.
SMOOTHNESS & AVERAGING
Big Sonic-Ski
Average irregularities in the reference surface so the screed responds to a longer, more stable reference.
PAVING QUALITY
PAVE-IR
See temperature differences across the mat and document conditions that can influence final paving quality.
REMOTE SUPPORT
MM-View
Give service teams remote visibility into the paving system to help diagnose problems and reduce troubleshooting time.
MOBA-MATIC II
Control starts at the screed
A consistent mat depends on a screed that responds accurately to the reference it is following. MOBA-Matic II automates grade and slope control at the paver, helping the screed maintain the specified position as surface conditions change throughout the pass.
Key Features:
Automatic Grade Control
Continuously compares the measured grade or slope with the setpoint and sends corrections to the screed as conditions change. This helps crews maintain the target profile throughout the paving pass.
Multiple reference options
Works with different sensing and reference methods depending on the job, including surface, stringline, slope and averaging applications. Crews can configure the system around the paving condition and desired result.
Straightforward operation
The operator interface keeps grade and slope information, setpoints and adjustments easy to access during paving. Crews can make the changes they need without adding unnecessary complexity to the process.
FLEXIBLE PAVER INSTALLATION
Designed for retrofit and installation across a wide range of asphalt pavers. Sensor, control and mounting options allow the system to be configured around the machine rather than requiring one fixed setup.
WHAT BETTER CONTROL DELIVERS
practical results on the paving job
A smoother finished surface
A stable grade reference and automatic screed control help reduce unnecessary corrections that can show up in the finished mat and ride quality.
Less rework and material correction
Maintaining the intended profile during the pass helps crews avoid chasing grade manually and reduces the risk of correcting problems after the asphalt is down.
More consistent operation
Automation handles repetitive measurement and control so the crew can focus on material flow, machine operation, joints, transitions and the rest of the paving process.
MOBA-Matic View
When the paver is running, support matters
A paving system problem can stop more than one component – it can slow the entire operation. MM-View gives authorized support teams remote access to system information so they can help diagnose configuration or performance issues without waiting for every question to become an on-site service call.
See how it all works together
From sensing the reference surface to controlling the screed and monitoring the finished mat,
MOBA paving technology works across different parts of the paving process
Need a replacement paving sensor, cable or part?
Grade control isn't only for highway paving.
Parking lots, subdivisions, municipal streets, driveways and other commercial paving jobs still depend on consistent grade, slope and screed control. The projects may be smaller, but uneven surfaces, drainage issues and frequent transitions are immediately visible to the customer.
MOBA grade-control technology can bring the same automatic control approach to compact and commercial pavers, helping crews maintain a more consistent surface while reducing the amount of manual correction required during the pass.
