AP400

The AP400 is a wheel-type asphalt paver that provides easy transport, application versatility, and a wide paving range, making it the perfect match for urban streets, parking lots, rural roads and many other small to intermediate-type applications.

Compact Size, Big Opportunities

  • The compact size and small footprint simplify maneuverability in tight spaces for efficient work in urban-type applictions
  • Tight 90º turning capability enables the paver to rotate and cover tracks on a return paving pass
  • Standard paving range utilizing the SE47 VT screed is 2.4 m - 4.7 m (7' 10" - 15' 4") with a maximum width of 6.0 m (19' 8")
  • Paving depths up to 300 mm (12") supports aggregate paving applications

Transport Made Easy

  • Machine weight of approximately 14.3 mt (31,539 lb) paver and screed combination enables easy transport on a variety of trailer types
  • Length of less than 5.7 m (18' 7") and width of 2.55 m (8' 4") accommodates machine transport without special permits. When equipped with 225 mm (9') extensions, transport width is 3 m (10') and paving width extends to 5.1 m (16')
  • The front-loading angle of 19º and high front bumper clearance reduces the need for additional blocking when loading onto various trailer designs
  • Raising or retracting the canopy is fast and easy with both electric or manual options available
  • Front, middle, and rear tie-down locations make securing the paver efficient for quick travel to the next job site

Exceptional Mobility

  • Wheel undercarriage provides exceptional mobility and fast travel speeds for unmatched maneuverability around the job site
  • Excellent traction is delivered through the 15.5 R25 radial tires
  • Front-wheel assist option provides power to the rear set of bogie wheels for excellent performance in tough conditions
  • High, front ground clearance of 203 mm (8") helps avoid storm drains, curbs, and other obstacles

Smooth Material Flow

  • Single amplitude tamper system with variable frequency screed plate vibration delivers excellent material flow and tight mat textures
  • Low truck entry height and short front apron enhances material flow while simplifying clean-out
  • Feeder system design with 355 mm (14") diameter augers provides consistent material flow across the screed for efficient flow at both narrow and wide paving widths
  • Narrow auger chamber keeps material moving and helps eliminate stagnate patches
  • Independent control of each material feed sensor, simply turn off the sensor for manual proportional feed control

More Comfort

  • Optional ventilation system draws fumes from the auger chamber and redirects them away from the operator for a more comfortable working environment
  • Single sliding console enables operation from either side of the machine
  • Dual independent seats swing out 40 degrees beyond the platform for good visibility to curbs and obstacles
  • Optimized height and integrated exhaust provide unobstructed visibility around the machine
  • Optional screed and paver mounted umbrellas offer protection from direct sun
  • Heated seat option delivers comfort in cool weather conditions
  • High visibility 76 mm (3") seat belt helps with crew safety compliance

Easy Viewing Displays

  • High-definition, touchscreen displays with adjustable brightness control for all types of lighting conditions, including direct sunlight
  • New touch screen operating display with simplified menu structures, intuitive graphics, and short-cut keys help simplify machine adjustments
  • Single-touch functions from the main screen include screed heat, wash-down system, vibratory activation, ventilation system, and the accessory panel
  • Cat® Grade Control or Basic Grade Control options available
  • Operating displays can be tailored to specific language requirements with multiple options available
  • Wash-down system includes level indication

Low Owning and Operating Costs

  • Durable Cat C3.6 engine provides 90 kW (120 hp) of power with variations that meet U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final and EU Stage V emission standards. The Cat 3.6 engine also meets Brazil MAR-1 and UN ECE R96 Stage IIIA emission standards, equivalent to U.S. EPA Tier 3 and EU Stage IIIA.
  • Single source supplier of Cat engines and machine parts helps maximize uptime
  • Exclusive Eco-mode and Automatic Engine Speed Control reduce fuel consumption and lowers sound levels for better job site communication
  • Conveyor bed plates and chain guards are designed to minimize labor requirements and lower replacement costs
  • Maintenance-free high torque motors for the auger and conveyor drive systems reduce service requirements
