Vogler Iron Plate repair Kit Promotion is here

The screed is one of the core components of a paver. Whether the screed is in good working condition may directly affect the paving effect of the road surface. As the end of the year approaches and temperatures drop, many areas enter the off-season for construction. It's time to take advantage of the work break to give your paver a thorough maintenance and repair, especially the screed, to restore its performance to its peak and get ready for the upcoming construction season of the next year!

Now, Wirtgen China is offering a promotion for ironing maintenance kits to its existing customers. Order now and enjoy a discount. One package can replace the wear parts of the screed for your equipment with brand new ones, ensuring the consistently high paving quality of the Vogler paver. Original factory parts quality, no need to worry and no expense. Don't wait, take action now!

Promotion period: From November 16, 2023 to May 31, 2024

Six reasons to choose an ironing maintenance kit

No need to use any old parts can greatly shorten the cleaning time.

There is no need to worry about assembly problems caused by mismatches between new and old parts or between original and non-original parts.

The ironing plate can be adjusted to the ideal state by using the original accessories.

Based on the above advantages, the maintenance time and the downtime of the machine can be shortened.

The package includes all the necessary accessories, so there is no need to worry about missing items.

The original factory parts can achieve ideal matching, greatly improving the paving effect.

The quality advantages of Fogler ironing plates

Ironing plate base plate: The wear-resistant steel used to manufacture the ironing plate base plate combines properties such as flexibility and fracture resistance. Due to the sliding friction generated between the ironing plate base plate and the spreading mixture, these characteristics play a decisive role in extending the service life of these components.

In the manufacturing process of the original factory ironing plate, the first step is to cut the raw materials of the base plate to the required size by laser. In the later stage, a chamfer structure will be milled below the front edge of the ironing plate base plate to ensure that the material compacted by the rammer can better enter the bottom of the base plate (the direction of movement is forward).

To prevent cold welding between the rear part of the rammer and the front edge of the ironing plate (with the traveling direction being forward), corresponding processing has also been carried out on this part. This optimization ensures the precise guidance of the rammer and significantly extends the service life of the two components. After stress relief straightening to ensure uniformity, the bolts are welded to the upper surface through a CNC numerical control stud welding machine. On average, 25 bolts with extremely high tensile and shear strength need to be welded onto each ironing plate base plate.

One of the important characteristics of a rammer is its hard surface and tough core. At the beginning of the manufacturing process, the profiles first need to be cut to the required length by the rammer using a CNC numerical control saw. The chamfered structure of the leading edge of the rammer ensures that the material is evenly pressed under the base plate, thereby achieving good compaction. The service life of these components depends on their hardness. Induction hardening (this process is also used for pressure beams) ensures consistent hardness throughout the entire length of the rammer and achieves a hardening depth of at least 5mm.

The interior of the rammer maintains toughness and flexibility, while the surface (in continuous contact with the mixture to be compacted) retains high wear resistance. The placement holes of the heating strip are drilled by a CNC deep hole drilling machine specially developed for Fogler. The heating strip placed in the hole uniformly heats the rammer and pressure beam from the inside throughout the entire length. In this way, during the subsequent paving process, the adhesion of asphalt residues can be prevented (especially during the preheating stage before starting work), thereby reducing the wear on the contact surface.

System: Fogler is a leader in the field of electric heating for ironing plates. As early as 1952, Fogler became the first paver manufacturer to adopt this efficient and environmentally friendly design. Up to now, it is still promoting the development of screed heating technology through numerous innovations.

All compaction devices can be uniformly heated across the entire width of the screed to maximize their compaction performance and ensure a defect-free and uniformly dense pavement structure. This process effectively prevents the adhesion of the mixture and provides an ideal working temperature for the floating function of the ironing plate. The rammer and pressure beam are rapidly and evenly heated from the inside through the built-in heating strip. The built-in heating strip is a standard feature of the ironing board, which distributes heat throughout the entire surface of the ironing board. As an optional feature, heating elements can also be installed on the edge pressure plate and edge plate sliding boots.
