Roadtec, located in Chattanooga, Tennessee, manufactures and markets a complete line of cold planing and recycling equipment, material transfer vehicles and asphalt paving machines. These products are sold all over the world through an extensive combination of dealers and direct sales managers. All of our products are built to the highest standards, emphasizing simplicity, productivity, versatility and accessibility.
One of the demands placed on contractors is to produce a recyclable asphalt product when milling up old pavement during the road reconstruction process and to leave a smooth surface for repaving. Our successful line of cold planers fills this need.
We offer cold planers in sizes from utility to full-lane. They provide the optimum balance between horsepower, production and maneuverability. Track models can be equipped with a bi-directional feature to achieve down cutting in the reverse direction of travel.
Roadtec pavers are the most reliable and maintenance-free pavers in the industry. They are simply-designed and well-balanced for maximum tractive effort and can be equipped with a variety of screeds and controls. Roadtec is the first U.S. paver manufacturer to make electric screed heat standard equipment on all models. This insures that the screed plates are heated evenly from front to back and from end to end, eliminating the ”hot” spots found with diesel or propane burners. The Comfort Drive™ operator system is also standard equipment on our pavers. Designed for maximum comfort and ease of operation, there are two complete operators stations, each with individual consoles, allowing the paver to be operated from either side. These consoles are easily interchangeable from side to side to accommodate left-or right-handed operators. A hydraulically-raised engine hood allows “walk-in” access for maintenance needs and critical componentry.
Roadtec's new and innovative gravity-fed Stealth® paver was designed to work in conjunction with the SB-2500 Shuttle Buggy® material transfer vehicle and the MTV-1000C material transfer vehicle. The Stealth® Paver is a low-maintenance machine that does not require conveyors or hopper wings. The design significantly reduces customers' maintenance cost and purchase price.
The Shuttle Buggy® material transfer vehicle offers the latest in pavement placement technology available world-wide. The Shuttle Buggy is a mobile, self-propelled surge bin with an antisegregation auger design that remixes material to produce a consistent size and temperature. In addition, the surge capacity of the Shuttle Buggy allows for continuous paving by separating truck unloading from the paving process; trucks never come in direct contact with the paver and are able to unload material immediately and return to the asphalt plant.
Roadtec is perfectly positioned to help roadbuilders meet new state Departments of Transportation (DOT) regulations for pavement smoothness. New smoothness standards are most easily achieved with a material transfer vehicle used in combination with a paver. The Roadtec Shuttle Buggy® material transfer vehicle not only allows the construction of significantly smoother roads but also improves the efficiency of paving operations. Benefits to the contractor include significant savings in asphalt trucking costs and the ability to meet, and even exceed, DOT standards. Being able to provide those benefits has made the patented Shuttle Buggy one of Roadtec's most successful products.
All Roadtec products are built to the highest standards and offer simplicity of operation and maintenance, along with outstanding productivity. We are further committed to provide unequaled service and parts support to our customers.
Our service men are all highly trained, experienced employees of Roadtec, not just field service representatives. They are committed solely to the Roadtec product line and will share their working knowledge to help you get the most out of your investment. Whether it's a new equipment start-up or a field repair, we will be on the job until it is finished.
Service schools are held at the Roadtec manufacturing facility each winter. Separate schools are held on pavers, cold planers and material transfer vehicles. Each school takes a comprehensive look at the electrical, hydraulics, maintenance and general operation of each category of equipment. Informal sessions offer hands-on instruction by our seasoned service personnel.
We also offer a training course called the Paving Professionals Workshop. This is the paving industry's most comprehensive total quality paving training conference ever. Our team of industry professionals provide the most thorough hands-on and classroom instruction offered in the proper application of asphalt lay down handling, rolling and testing equipment. All sessions are held at our state of the art training facilities in Chattanooga, TN. A variety of working equipment is on hand for all sessions.
Our parts department is staffed with experienced technicians who can quickly fulfill your needs from our factory inventory. By dealing directly with the manufacturer for your parts needs, you eliminate the middle man, significantly reducing costs and wasted time. We give you reasonable parts pricing with no minimum order requirements. Emergency services handled "after hours" are by real people - not answering machines - and there are no expedite charges for these emergencies. Our parts and service department is open 24 hours a day. One call gives you accessibility to all departments in the Roadtec organization.
Our commitment is clear. We give our customers the highest level of quality, both in the equipment we produce and the service and parts support we provide. The reputation of our company depends on the customer's satisfaction.
