Allen Engineering VLP3036 – Versatile Light Paver

The VLP3036 from Allen Engineering is a larger, dual-purpose paver that offers wider paving capabilities and can be adapted into a BDF4836 deck finisher. Ideal for light rail, bridge overlays, and full-depth bridge decks, it can be customized with frame extensions and accessories to meet diverse project needs.

Description

Allen Engineering VLP3036: Dual-Purpose Versatile Light Paver

Wider Coverage with Flexible Design

The VLP3036 from Allen Engineering delivers powerful performance and versatility as a professional-grade paver machine. Contractors choose the VLP3036 when they need expanded paving coverage along with the flexibility to manage multiple job types. Since it serves as the larger counterpart to the VLP2424, the VLP3036 not only increases productivity but also converts easily into a BDF4836 bridge deck finisher. Because of this dual-purpose design, contractors gain two essential machines in one compact package. As a result, crews save money, reduce labor, and improve efficiency on rail paving, bridge overlays, and full-depth deck projects.

Reliable Kohler Power for Demanding Applications

At the heart of the VLP3036, the Kohler CH740 air-cooled engine generates 23.5 horsepower of consistent output. Because this engine is known for durability, efficiency, and minimal maintenance, crews enjoy reliable operation across extended shifts and in changing jobsite conditions. The engine drives the concrete pavement machine with smooth, steady performance, so contractors can trust the machine to keep pace with demanding schedules. Moreover, its compact configuration maximizes power while supporting both paving and finishing applications.

Adaptable Frame for Dual Functionality

The VLP3036 delivers unmatched flexibility thanks to its modular frame and convertible design. Since contractors can quickly reconfigure it as a bridge deck finisher, they handle light rail paving one day and heavy bridge work the next without needing a separate unit. Furthermore, the modular system accepts additional frame sections and accessories, allowing crews to adjust for overlays, curved rails, or elevated decks. In comparison to larger road paver machines, the VLP3036 offers the strength required for heavy-duty projects while maintaining the maneuverability needed for confined spaces.

Engineered for Precision and Performance

The VLP3036 gives contractors consistent paving depth, smooth finishes, and ergonomic operator control. Because it combines accuracy with efficiency, crews reduce labor demands while completing projects on time. Additionally, its reliable output makes it an ideal choice when larger road paver machines prove too bulky. Contractors benefit from an active, responsive machine that adapts to rail, overlay, and bridge applications seamlessly.
