Track Curb & Gutter Machines For Sale

About Track Curb & Gutter Machines

Track curb and gutter machines, along with wheeled models, are one of two primary types of machines used by paving, road construction, and other operations to form curbs and gutters in residential street, highway, parking lot, and other applications. Both track and wheel models provide crews an alternative to using extensive labor, wood, steel, and other resources to do the job, which produces considerable labor and time savings and efficiency gains.

While some manufacturers offer both track and wheel models, smaller commercial models tend to use wheels while larger industrial-sized models generally use multi-track systems to move. Some leading manufacturers of track curb and gutter machines include Curb Fox, GOMACO, and Power Curbers.

Track vs. Wheel Pros & Cons

As their name implies, track and wheel curb and gutter machines both function to simultaneously form the curb—or the concrete or asphalt border positioned between a road and a lawn—and a gutter, or the flat slab of concrete or asphalt that butts up against the curb. The gutter directs excess moisture to municipal drainage systems. The curb also helps direct water and helps strengthen the paved surface. While some manufacturers sell track models designed only to form curbs and gutters, other slipform paver machines can also be used to form sidewalks, parapets, safety barriers, channels, and more.

Compared to wheel models, track models are generally considered to distribute the machine’s weight more evenly while providing better traction and stability on more surface conditions. Wheel models, meanwhile, are generally less expensive, provide better mobility and greater speed, and offer simpler maintenance.

Distinguishing Features

Curb and gutter machines are made up of a wide array of components, including small to oversized hoppers, belt and auger conveyor systems, sensors, control systems, display panels, gas and diesel engines, extrusion assemblies, vibrators, and plates. Features and abilities of these machines variously can include cross-slope control, smart hydraulic cylinders, all-track positioning and steering ability, automated tight-radii operation, telematics and diagnostics systems, GPS-based stringless guidance systems, and the ability to produce custom curb designs and shapes.
