Description:
This project captures the new product development of a surface dryer machine to improve quality and efficiency of paving operations. The surface dryer machine allows paving contractors to dry moisture on a roadway prior to paving which will extend spring/fall paving seasons, eliminate downtime caused by passing showers and ensure a completely dry surface prior to paving for better adhesion. The project covers complete system development including research, design, prototype build, testing, redesign and modifications.
