Big on paving

The largest rubber tire asphalt paver in the Terex Roadbuilding line and on the market, the Terex CR552 mainline paver (Circle 911), delivers more power and production capacities for full-width paving applications such as airports, interstates, state highways, industrial paving projects and major county road and highway construction. The paver’s heavy-duty frame and bogie pivot, kingpin and bogie bearings offer a class-high hopper load bearing capacity of up to 25 tons, delivering the extra surge capacity necessary to handle mainline paving.

The CR552’s 260-hp Cummins diesel engine meets stringent Tier III, C.A.R.B. Tier III and Stage IIIA emissions standards, while offering the power to efficiently handle full-width paving and ample reserve to operate electric screeds and lights for night paving. The six-cylinder, 24-valve engine varies the fuel stream to use only the amount of fuel necessary for the application, resulting in greater fuel economy and quieter operation.

Featuring the largest drive tire in the industry, the CR552 paver provides up to a 50% greater footprint than comparable pavers for improved traction. Its heavy-duty rear-drive motor offers increased drawbar pull for superior tractive effort. Contractors can further improve drawbar pull by up to 50% over normal two-wheel-drive systems by equipping the paver with the front-wheel-drive assist option.
