PAVE-IR :: THE INNOVATIVE SYSTEM FOR PROCESS OPTIMIZATION AND DOCUMENTATION IN ROAD CONSTRUCTION

Intelligent Paving – Thermal Real-time Visualization for the Asphalt Paving of the Future

The optimal temperature of the installation material is a decisive factor in road construction, on which the quality of the road significantly depends. A thermal visualization of the installation process provides important insights into the quality of the material and opens up completely new optimization potentials.

PAVE-IR is the first system to simply and clearly create a thermal profile of the road - in real time! The high-precision IR temperature scanner MTPS-100 provides a wide thermal profile of the built-in layer over a total width of up to 13m, which can optionally be used as evidence for all installation and supply temperatures. The fully automatic visualization of the temperature thus offers the possibility to detect individual points which might be affected by thermal segregation, and to react immediately!

Up to four further freely positionable high-performance sensors (IR spots) additionally measure material temperatures exactly at all points where temperature is critical, whether at the hopper, above the ground or at the screw.

This multiple measurement provides extensive, high-precision values. It thus is possible to assess the temperature of the delivered material in real time and, if necessary, to document it. Differences in the temperature of the installation material thus are visible during the entire process. As a result, measures can immediately be taken if necessary.

The unique IR technology of the scanner offers the decisive advantage of being able to accurately determine the temperature of the asphalt surface and the material.

The acquisition over a width of up to 13m is technically superior to camera-based solutions on the market.

Due to its modular concept, PAVE-IR is compatible with every paver - regardless of manufacturer and age of the machine.

The core competences of the system exist of three functionalities: the high-precision data acquisition with innovative cloud solution linked to open interfaces for current asphalt logistic and process systems, as well as a highly scalable reporting system. This combination is an unique selling point on the market as it covers the entire temperature visualization process, from measurement to evaluation.

With the automatic temperature measurement, the intuitive panel and the self-explanatory temperature profiles, PAVE-IR is an innovative tool that shows optimization potentials - without additional expenses for the installation team! The decisive progress in addition to the comprehensive visualization and documentation of temperature measurement data, is the interconnectivity of the paver - the first cornerstone for the construction site of the future.

As an innovative tool and component of the ‘Intelligent Paving’ product line of MOBA Mobile Automation AG, PAVE-IR thus is an important element for the interconnected construction site of the future and significantly contributes to the longevity of the road.

Its development and its daily use on construction sites around the world is just another proof that digitalization 4.0 has already arrived at the construction site.

The road building expertise of more than 40 years of experience paired with the innovative power of a globally networked company make MOBA Mobile Automation the pioneer of road construction in the future. Become part of this future and let us advise you on this technology without Obligation.
