BOMAG LAUNCHES 10-FT
HIGHWAY-CLASS PAVERS
WITH NEW FEATURES AND IMPROVED
OPERATOR EXPERIENCE
OMAG 10-ft (3.0-m) pavers now
include significant upgrades to
the operator’s platform, which
improve visibility and the opera-
tor experience. New dual swing-out op-
erator stations feature BOMAG’s
SIDEVIEW innovation in which the
seat and console swivel outward at four
differing angles to deliver unobstructed
views to the sides of the paver and the
screed end gates. An open-grate design
on the platform floor affords the opera-
tor direct-line sight of the screed spread-
ing augers.
The new large, 7-in (178-mm) mul-
tifunction color screen display at each
console provides easy viewing of critical
operating functions, gauges and param-
eters plus provides fault messages for
quick troubleshooting at the jobsite to
improve serviceability. New blade-type
toggle switches, each controlling a sin-
gle paver function, improve switch reli-
ability.
The pavers’ new sound-insulated
composite engine hood delivers qui-
eter paving to improve operator com-
fort. The hood’s sloped design provides
a clear view into the hopper from the
operator’s seat. Under the hood, a 260-
hp (194-kW) Tier 4 Final engine on the
wheeled machine and a 225-hp (168
kW) on the tracked machine delivers
ample power for full-width paving,
while having enough power in reserve
to operate the screed’s generator and
lights for nighttime paving application.
On typical applications, fuel consump-

tion for the new highway class pavers
averages less than 4 gal/hr (15.1 l/hr).
BOMAG has simplified its 10-ft (3.0-
m) class paver offering, reducing the
number of models from four to two.
Legacy CR 452 and CR 552 wheeled
pavers are now replaced by the CR
1030 W paver, while the rubber track
CR 462 and CR 562 pavers now bear
the CR 1030 T identification. These
adaptable pavers tackle a range of appli-
cations from interstate and state high-
way to airport, heavy industrial and
large commercial projects.
Cedarapids DNA Retained
While closely identifying with
BOMAG family of pavers, the new CR
1030 Series retains many of the legacy
Cedarapids designs that have helped
contractors meet mat smoothness spec-
ifications and productivity goals for
decades. Frame Raise and Three-Point
Suspension mitigate segregation issues,
improve mat quality and provide su-
perior traction. The Smartrac™ system
found on CR 1030 T pavers automati-
cally maintains proper track tension at
all times to significantly increase track
life and decrease downtime.
Equipped with the tried-and-true
Stretch® 20 hydraulically extendible
screed, these machines deliver infinite-
ly variable paving widths from 10-20
ft (3.0-6.1 m) and a maximum paving
width of 30-ft (9.1-m) with extensions.
Electric-over-hydraulic controls provide
fast, simple and accurate screed adjust-
[30]
ments, while the Stretch 20’s Screed
Assist System eliminates screed setting
to improve mat smoothness. New hose
routing and wire harness designs im-
prove screed system reliability in the
field.
BOMAG CR 1030 W Series pavers
have a standard 16.7-ton (15.1-tonne)
hopper capacity and the robust hop-
per design delivers up to a 27-ton
(24.5-tonne) capacity when equipped
with an insert. The CR 1030 T Series
pavers have a standard 14-ton (12.7
tonne) hopper capacity up to a 22-ton
(20-tonne) capacity when equipped
with an insert. These new pavers come
standard with a three-year compli-
mentary subscription to BOMAG
Telematic.
