MOBA Mobile Automation AG’s MOBA- matic levelling system for asphalt pavers now has a material temperature sensor that displays to the MOBA-matic II control panel in real time while paving is in progress.
The temperature sensors can be installed with a magnetic mount at different positions on the paver, either in the hopper to monitor temperature on delivery, or in the area of the screed. The material temperature is measured throughout the paving process. This process will work best where agitated material can be measured.
The sensor eliminates the need to measure temperature manually. Detecting fluctuations in real time allows the operator to decide quickly whether to take measures to achieve consistent material temperature, thus achieving better paving quality.
Either a single sensor can be used for the two MOBA-matic II control panels, or two separate sensors can be installed, one for each MOBA-matic II.
The temperature sensor allows for monitoring during the whole paving process starting in the mixing plant and continuing in the asphalt hopper. During paving, a PAVE-IR scan system can be added for quality control.
