Caterpillar ASPHALT PAVERS AP555F - catalog of spare parts

ENHANCED ECO-MODE

Eco mode and automatic engine speed control, when activated together, change the engine speed depending on load factors. When activated, the engine will operate at 1650 rpm when laying. If the upper power threshold is exceeded, the engine speed will increase to 2,200 rpm and will remain there until the need drops below the threshold and remains there for 30 seconds. This advanced technological advancement ensures reliable performance.

 

SILENT HEATING

The silent heating mode operates at a rotational speed of 1300 rpm and provides warming up of the screeds in less than 15 minutes.

 

QUICK HEATING

Rapid heating mode provides a warm-up time of less than 35 minutes when using a package for laying a wide pavement. Rapid heating does not heat up faster than quiet heating when the screed has a standard extension width.

 

TEMPERATURE RANGES

Three preset heating options provide a wide range of temperatures for different mix designs; Low - 110 degrees C or 230 degrees Fahrenheit, medium - 130 degrees C or 266 degrees Fahrenheit, high - 160 degrees C or 320 degrees Fahrenheit.

 

BETTER VISIBILITY, EXCLUSIVE COMFORT

Dual independent workstations may extend beyond circular visibility. The low-profile cooling system, installed in front, improves visibility forward, and the redesigned auger assembly optimizes visibility to the height of the material in front of the coupler. The option of heated seats, multi-seat adjustment and sloping consoles allow the operator to provide comfort throughout the day. The overhead cooling system directs smoke, hot air and fan noise from the crew for a cooler and quieter work environment.

 

PARK MANAGEMENT

An exclusive ventilation system picks up pairs from the conveyor tunnel, as well as from the auger chamber, and redirects them from the operator for a more comfortable working environment.

 

THE ONLY SENSORY WORK

The one-touch functions for an automatic filling system, activation of the supply system and bunker control allow operators to focus on truck exchanges and other tasks to improve efficiency.

 

SIMPLE TECHNOLOGY

Technology helps operators perform. Intuitive symbols and large graphics simplify operation, and an interactive LCD display with a touch screen that allows you to activate the generator, adjust the temperature of the screed and adjust the height of the mixture, increases efficiency.

 

AUTOMATIC FEEDING SYSTEM

The automatic filler feed system makes it easy to start, alternating between conveyors and augers, until the mix height reaches the sensor set point. This unique system eliminates manual activation and ongoing monitoring for more stable operation.

 

The ONLY FEED SYSTEM

Two augers and two conveyors can be activated automatically with a single switch for easy setup. Each auger and each conveyor can operate independently of each other when necessary.

 

CONTROL OF ONE TOUCH

The wings of the bunker and the hydraulic apron can be folded with one touch and released. The system can be configured to activate the left or right wing or the front hydraulic apron independently or together.

 

Cleaning mode and warm up

This feature activates augers, conveyors and protective bar (if any) at a reduced speed, which allows the use of anti-adhesives that help prevent material accumulation.

 

HIGH MIX ADJUSTMENT

Adjusting the height of the mixture before the coupler can be changed on the tractor`s LCD display to increase versatility if necessary.

 

HYDRAULIC EXTENSIONS OF THE MAIN FRAME

Additional 457 mm (18 ") additional hydraulic extenders are attached to the auger assembly and provide a smooth flow of material to the extenders. They are reduced with the help of extenders with decreasing laying width.

 

OPTIONS FOR MULTIPLE FEED SENSORS

The feed system can be configured to automatically operate with 0, 2, or 4 feed sensors. When stacking with 0 sensors due to a malfunction, simply install an automatic feed system and adjust the mix height setting, no need to switch the manual switch as required in previous models.

 

SIMPLE SERVICE

Support plates that do not require equipment simplify replacement, and mounting on the underside for protective circuits eliminates bolt wear and material buildup for easier maintenance.

 

SPECTACLE

Mobil-Trac undercarriage minimizes the movement of the tow point. Front and rear carts allow you to overcome obstacles and maintain contact with the ground. The smooth tape version works well on soft base materials and fresh mats. The design of the treadmill copes with the loose surface / transportation conditions.

 

STRENGTH

Self-locking batteries, center guides and sturdy internal strap cables ensure durability. Components are rubber coated to shed asphalt and prevent buildup.

 

SCREED HEAT TECHNOLOGY

Exclusive zone monitoring allows you to continue heating in the event of a temperature sensor failure. The system also monitors the heating elements for malfunctions and helps eliminate unnecessary replacement.

 

EASY ADJUSTMENT

The ability to adjust the ratio of the feed system from the tie provides additional versatility. Standard power adjustment for height, tilt and extension crown allows you to adjust on the go with standard and maximum installation widths.

 

2-speed proportional control

Exclusive two-speed proportional control of the extension provides a lower speed for precise control of obstacles and quick response with increasing laying width.

 

SIMPLE REPLACEMENT

Heating elements extend for easy replacement, no need to remove the tie. In addition, machined screeds facilitate the replacement and alignment of screeds.

 

VARIANT SCREEN DRUM

Screeds equipped with a protective strip increase the density, as they enclose the material under the plates. Three stroke settings of 2, 4 and 7 mm and a variable tamper speed from 700 to 1800 rpm provide versatility.

 

WIDE COMMUNITY PACKAGES

Exclusive power controls make it easy to adjust across the entire width of the road surface for better texture and quality mats. The innovative design uses the expander slope for attaching wide width pavements and eliminates the need for additional lifting devices.

 

EASY OPERATION

The F Series Pavers allow you to control Cat Grade Control from either of two tractors or two screeds. The split screen mode can be configured to control each side of the tie, allowing you to control one person.

 

EXACT CONTROL

More precise control maximizes blend usage and saves money. True averaging using sound sensors that use 5 transducers, 2 readings are discarded and 3 are averaged. 10-point auto-calibration eliminates the possibility of over / under-adjustment from one calibration point. Crossover, slope and height are maintained by adjusting the height. A true 9-meter (30-foot) sonic averaging beam changes the movement of the tow point by 1/3 of the total deviation of the slope.

 

HIGHLY RELIABLE

 

Watertight displays, factory installed components and sequential routing provide performance. Sealed components withstand heat, moisture, and vibration, and built-in temperature sensors provide better reliability than flip-type sensors.
