MCA-500

With the MCA-500, it is possible to control compaction performance. This system monitors compaction during the job, thus improving the compaction result. Over and under-compaction are avoided, factors that often lead to premature wear, or potholes. The system is cost-effective, economically, and easy to operate with a self-explanatory symbol language. The MCA-500 can be used both in earthworks and road construction. The system displays the ICV (Intelligent Compaction Value), frequency and amplitude, as well as jump function and completion of compaction. As a special feature for asphalt paving, the system also uses an infrared sensor to detect the asphalt temperature, enabling compaction in the optimum temperature range.
