This new advancement is the perfect coupling of invention and customer focus. By listening to our customers, we developed a highly functional, technologically-advanced control system that is still simple to operate and service.”
The reliable and easy-to-service control system includes:
-
Digital Operator Panel – Panel displays clear and easy-to-understand digital icons, allowing operators to easily monitor machine status
- Ergonomic Experience – Stations are conveniently positioned within reach of the operators’ fingertips
- Touch Screen Display – Intuitive touch screen allows operators to work quickly and efficiently
The improved RP-series highway class pavers will continue to be manufactured with the same trusted machine features and will now include the upgraded control panel technology standard on all models.
The new RP paver controls will be on display in Booth 2602 at World of Asphalt/Agg1 in March.
