Micro surfacing

Efficient asphalt surface construction with a single mobile unit

Proper micro surfacing of asphalt must be carried out in compliance with ZTV BEA Stb 09/13 and TL G DSK StB 15. Micro surfacing methods are suitable for improving the evenness of the cross section profile and the grip of the surface.

Thinning, patches and network cracks can easily be repaired.
The asphalt mixture is produced from a polishing resistant aggregate mixture with graduated grain size, polymer modified cationic bitumen emulsion, additives (e.g. cement, chalk or fibre) and water.

The main reasons to use micro surfacing asphalt are the low primary energy requirement and the resulting economic benefits. The micro surfacing machine thus combines a mobile asphalt mixer with a laying machine on the construction site.

Advantages compared to conventional methods:

  • Conserves resources due to more efficient and reduced use of materials
  • Energy savings as the material does not have to be heated
  • Reduced manufacturing costs
  • Protection of the environment and the climate due to lower emission figures in production
  • Efficient application on all kinds of different construction sites and in various conditions
  • Fast re-opening for traffic
     

Micro surfacing machines are designed to produce a quality mixture and apply high quality surfaces. To achieve this, the required formulation must be exactly adhered to and flexible handling with the paver guaranteed. The micro surfacing machines from schäfer-technic have been developed to meet all of the challenges outlined.

Depending on machine size, e.g. on
local roads and urban streets

Application with micro surfacing machines.

Applications


Laying coloured surfaces

Adding colour pigments to the mixture
enables a coloured surface to be applied,
e.g. for:

  • Cycle paths
  • Lane markings
  • Parking spaces
  • Special areas
  • etc.

Application with micro surfacing machines or Mini-Mix.

Applications


Application on small road areas

Small areas can be repaired with a paver
or manually using micro surface asphalt:

  • Cycle paths
  • Footpaths
  • etc.

Application with micro surfacing machines or Mini-Mix.

Applications


Application on footpaths

With the pivoting mixer on the Mini-Mix
or smart equipment options, the
micro surfacing mixture can be supplied to and applied in
difficult to reach locations.

  • Footpaths
  • Cycle paths
  • Difficult to access areas
  • etc.

Application with micro surfacing machines or Mini-Mix.

Different machines can be used for micro surfacing depending on the method and processes:
