Industries Ser ved: Infrastructure Astec Mobile Machinery GmbH Astec Mobile Machinery GmbH (AMM) designs and manufactures paving products, paver screeds and road wideners. These products are designed to bring fresh engineering ideas into the roadbuilding process. AMM's experienced engineers are well versed in the specific roadbuilding requirements in Europe and Asia. AMM's products are designed for high production quality, operator ergonomics and compact design. They fullfil the latest technology standards. The European and Asian road specifications call for paver screeds that have a high pre-compaction mechanism and good heat insulation to produce a homogeneous, even mat surface. High density paver screeds like the AMM TT 2550 produce an initial compaction above 90% of final density directly behind the paver. Together with Roadtec's engineering and marketing division, AMM is integrating the Shuttle Buggy® SB 2500 into foreign markets. These Material Transfer Vehicles (MTV) and the new paver generation with precompacting screeds, will bring road construction, and specifically the resurfacing specifications to a new level. In addition, Roadtec's cold planers are adapted to the European market by means of adding a European package, like milling drums and operator specific requirements. At the beginning of 2013 the new RP 2505 paver designed for the European market will become the first integrated engineering project between Roadtec and AMM. The track-mounted paver will get the TT 2550 high density screed. A. B. A.
