VGELE Screeds
Because Building Roads Requires Accuracy
Modern road construction makes higher and higher demands on an asphalt pavers performance and
cost-effectiveness. The screeds offered by VGELE feature powerful systems for compaction as well as
intelligent control and monitoring. A variety of optional extras is available. In other words, these screeds
come with all it takes to build roads efficiently and to the highest standards of quality.
VGELE Screeds
Their Range of Applications
The screed options offered by VGELE cover a wide
range of most varied applications. VGELE Extending
Screeds and Fixed-Width Screeds are capable of paving
widths from 0.5m to 16m. Besides asphalt, they handle a
variety of other materials such as concrete, crushed stone
or special mixes.
Whether your job to be done is surfacing footpath or
cycle path, sealing dumping ground or building highway
or motorway or whether the challenge is racing circuits
or airport projects which both call for highest precision
the range of VGELE screeds covers any kind of task
contractors may encounter.

The AB 200 Extending Screed designed for the mini and small VGELE pavers stands out through accurate operation
and achieves high precompaction. It is available in 2 versions as far as equipment with compacting systems is concerned:
AB 200 V (with vibrators) has been specially designed for use with SUPER 600, AB 200 TV (with tamper and vibrators)
combines with SUPER 800.
The AB 200 Extending Screed, in either version, has a basic width of 1.1m and extends hydraulically to 2m. By addition of
bolt-on extensions, AB 200 V builds up to a maximum width of 2.7m. AB 200 TV features a maximum width of even 3.2m.

unique single-tube telescoping system for infinite variation of pave width, it is ideal for a wide field of applications.
The screed extends hydraulically from 2.55m to 5m and builds up with bolt-on extensions to a maximum width of 8.5m.
Addition of cut-off shoes allows to reduce pave width to a minimum of 2m.
The AB 600-2 Extending Screed has a basic width of 3m. Equipped with the VGELE single-tube telescoping system,
its pave width is infinitely variable up to 6m. By addition of bolt-on extension, the screed builds up for joint-free paving to
a maximum of 9.5m. This makes AB 600-2 ideally suited for combination with VGELE pavers in the upper mid range and
also with SUPER 2500. For minor jobs, cut-off shoes are available allowing to reduce the pave width to a minimum of 2.45m.
The AB 500-2 is available with tamper and vibrators as well as in two versions for high compaction (with tamper
and 1 or 2 pressure bars).
AB 600-2 is offered in three different versions for compaction. It comes in TV version (with tamper and vibrators)
or in TP1 or TP2 versions for high compaction (with 1 or 2 pressure bars).

Infinitely Variable Range
up to 1.5m
Fixed Screeds are ideal for paving in larger widths. Their fields of applications are enhanced by VGELE Hydraulic
Bolt-on Extensions which offer the advantage of infinitely variable pave width within the range of 1.5m. And Hydraulic
Bolt-on extensions save time. In order to change screed width within the above range, there is no need to mount or
demount conventional bolt-on extensions as it used to be.
Hydraulic Bolt-on Extensions are based on the technology of the well-proven VGELE Extending Screeds. Units are
available in T version (with tamper), TP1 version (with tamper and 1 pressure bar) or TP2 version (with tamper and
2 pressure bars). They can be fitted to mechanical bolt-on extensions of 1m or 1.5m. For mounting Hydraulic Bolt-on
Extensions, the screed needs to be enlarged in width through mechanical extensions by at least 1.5m, both left and
right sides.

The SB 250 B Concrete Screed makes economical construction of concrete pavements an easy job. The screed
handling a maximum pave width of 7.5m and layer thickness up to 30cm is ideally suited to PCC paving, for instance,
on storage areas for containers, industrial yards, roads on factory grounds, industrial floors etc. For concrete paving,
high compaction is a crucial issue. This is why the SB 250 B Concrete Screed comes with the full package of compacting
systems. Equipped with tamper, vibrators and 2 pressure bars this special HPC screed in TVP2 version yields a final
density of up to 98%. And what is more: screeds swap easily, thus allowing the paver to be quickly ready for operation
whether on a job for asphalt or concrete paving. Downtime is minimized and the pavers utilization enhanced considerably.

VGELE set standards in terms of compaction: perfected technology together with the ultimate in materials for
manufacture of screed components guarantee the outstanding performance and reliability VGELE high compaction
systems are known for. The tamper provides for optimum precompaction of the mix. Tamper speed and stroke length
can be set up and adjusted precisely to match flow of mix, kind of mix and layer thickness.
High compaction is crucial when it comes to perfectly build up a pavement in layers, true to line and level. For each
compacting system, separate adjustment and control is provided. The pressure for pressure bars is infinitely variable.
Thanks to this feature, VGELE High Compaction Technology can be applied on jobs where layer thickness varies
across the pave width, for most varied paving materials and even for paving wearing course.
The pressure bar(s) driven by pulsed-flow hydraulics are the core of VGELE High Compaction Technology. Thanks to
this unique technology, VGELE pavers combined with HPC screeds in TP1, TP2 or TVP2 versions achieve highest
degrees of density.
The pressure bars located at the rear of the screed achieve maximum compaction
as the mix is prevented from yielding.
How pulsed-flow hydraulics work: due to the high impulse recurrence frequency, pressure bars
are in permanent contact with the mix. The pressure for pressure bars is infinitely variable.
18
Even when layer thickness varies across the pave width, VGELE High Compaction Technology achieves a high degree of uniform density.
19
Generator Management
An intelligent Generator Management system ensures that, irrespective of engine rpm, the generator output needed
for heating the screed in its current pave width is made available at all times. Heating the screeds compacting systems
to operating temperature takes a short time only even with the engine running at minimum rpm. When paving with
paver functions set to automatic, the Generator Management activates screed heating in Alternating Mode which cuts
electric power required for heating and reduces fuel consumption.
A three-phase A.C. generator, easily accessible, is installed to supply power for perfect heating of VGELE Extending Screeds and Fixed-Width Screeds across the full pave width.

plate is crucial for high pavement quality.

All compacting elements are heated across the full pave width.

Telescoping Tube
3-Point Suspension
VGELE Extending Screeds place all kinds of layers with highest precision, also those varying in thickness across the
pave width when building crowned pavement profile, for instance.
Thanks to the 3-point suspension of the screeds extending units, torsional forces exerted to these units by pressure of
the mix cannot affect the screeds telescoping system. Forces are absorbed at the telescoping tubes outer point of
attachment to the extending unit, by a fixed guide tube and a sliding restraint system. Thanks to this design, the screeds
extending units move in and out smoothly, nothing can jam or get stuck.

Sliding Restraint System
Telescoping tubes are located in high positions. Any contact with hot mix is positively avoided.
Even with the screed set to its maximum width, telescoping tubes are extended by no more
than half, which provides for zero flexing.
3-Point Suspension
Thanks to 3-point suspension of the screeds extending units, nothing can jam or get stuck.
Thanks to amply dimensioned telescoping tubes, the screeds extending units slide in

Bolt-on Extensions
For all VGELE screeds bolt-on extensions are available. The VGELE system of bolt-on extensions
allows to easily and sturdily build up screeds to any pave width desired. Even when paving in large
widths, VGELE screeds work with highest precision and achieve superb degrees of uniform density
right up to the pavement edges.
