MOBA LINE-READER

Solution for installations with spatial restrictions

Challenges for installations with spatial restrictions

Missing guidance in tight spaces

In narrow job sites, traditional guidance aids like string lines or curbs are often unavailable—making precise alignment difficult.

Constant corrections by the operator

Tight spaces require frequent manual adjustments by the operator to follow markings or joints accurately, increasing workload and stress.

Difficult transitions to existing pavement

Connecting to an existing lane or previous paving pass is especially tricky in confined areas, often resulting in overlaps, gaps, or uneven transitions.

Line Reader

Optical guidance for next-level paving.

Perfect evenness is the goal for every asphalt construction project. On construction sites with spatial restrictions, it is often difficult or even impossible to use conventional
levelling systems, as there is no room for lateral attachments to the asphalt paver.

This includes tunnel construction sites or asphalt paving work that extends right up to concrete boundaries, such as motorway or bridge construction sites, or to the walls of buildings.


MOBA offers the solution with the LINE-READER: it picks up an optical reference line that is attached to the vertical surface bordering the side.
