VLP3036: Versatile, Dual-Purpose Paving Power for Rail and Bridge Projects
The VLP3036 from Allen Engineering is a powerful and adaptable paver machine designed for contractors who need both wider paving capabilities and the flexibility to handle multiple applications. As the larger counterpart to the VLP2424, the VLP3036 provides expanded coverage and the added benefit of conversion into a BDF4836 bridge deck finisher—giving contractors a dual-purpose solution without needing to invest in separate units.
From light rail projects to bridge overlays and full-depth bridge decks, the VLP3036 is built for versatility, efficiency, and performance in specialized paving environments.
Powered by a Reliable Kohler CH740 Engine
At the core of the VLP3036 is a robust air-cooled Kohler CH740 engine, delivering 23.5 horsepower of steady, fuel-efficient performance. Known for its durability and low-maintenance operation, this engine ensures the machine runs smoothly through long paving sessions and varying jobsite conditions.
Its compact yet powerful configuration supports the functions of this advanced concrete pavement machine, giving contractors reliable output and consistent paving results across a range of concrete applications.
Adaptable Frame Design for Dual Functionality
One of the standout features of the VLP3036 is its ability to be converted into a BDF4836 deck finisher, transforming the unit from a light rail paver machine into a bridge deck finishing tool. This unique dual-purpose capability makes it an incredibly cost-effective and flexible solution for contractors working across multiple job types.
The machine also features a modular frame system that can be customized with additional frame sections and accessory options. This allows the VLP3036 to be tailored to meet specific project specs, whether it’s a curved rail section, an elevated bridge, or a specialty overlay.
Precision Performance for Complex Projects
Designed to tackle applications that traditional road paver machines may struggle with, the VLP3036 excels in tight clearances and specialty pours. It maintains the maneuverability and control needed for urban light rail construction, while also offering the rigidity and strength required for heavy bridge work.
Its smooth operation and ergonomic design help crews deliver a consistent finish with minimal labor, improving both project quality and timeline.
