GOMACO GT-3200 Sidewalk Paver

A zero-clearance sidewalk paver with a folding conveyor, designed for high-volume walkway replacement up to 12 ft. (3.66 m) wide.

The GOMACO GT-3200 sidewalk paver was designed for the demand for high-volume sidewalk replacement in Canada. It slipforms walkways up to 12 ft. (3.66 m) wide on a well-prepared grade, and it can trim the grade or place an aggregate base with the right mold, so one machine handles the sidewalk from subgrade to finished surface. G+ controls run grade and steering.

The point of the machine is working in a sidewalk lane crowded with trees, power poles, and hydrants. GOMACO built it with the company’s zero-clearance expertise so it slipforms tight against those obstacles, and it ships assembled on one truck with the conveyor folded up.

Its signature is the conveyor. A 20 in. (508 mm) wide, 14 ft. (4.27 m) long folding conveyor lets ready-mix trucks discharge from the road instead of driving over the curb to reach the paver. A ground person works the conveyor around each obstacle while the machine keeps paving: it folds to clear a light pole, raises without folding for a smaller obstruction, and pivots 90 degrees either side of centre for loading from either side. One Canadian contractor said that without it, they would have hand-formed 32 to 39 ft. (10 to 12 m) of walk at every obstruction.

Benefits


The folding conveyor

The conveyor is what makes the GT-3200. It is 20 in. (508 mm) wide and 14 ft. (4.27 m) long, and it lets ready-mix trucks discharge from the road while the paver works the sidewalk lane. A ground person folds it to clear a light pole or pivots it to load from either side, and the pour never stops.

Built for zero-clearance sidewalk

GOMACO designed the GT-3200 around its zero-clearance paving expertise, to work in a sidewalk lane full of trees, poles, and hydrants. It slipforms tight against those obstacles in existing residential areas where a larger machine could not fit, and contractors have run it from 5 ft. (1.5 m) walk up to 12 ft. (3.66 m).

Trim, base, and pave in one machine

With the right mold the GT-3200 prepares the grade and places the walk. A trimmerhead does fine grade trimming as the machine slipforms behind it, and an aggregate base mold spreads base material to width with a spreader auger and compacts it with three pan vibrators. It takes a site from subgrade to finished sidewalk.

Ships whole, sets up fast

The GT-3200 ships fully assembled on a single truck, with either the aggregate base mold or the trimmer attached and the conveyor folded for transport. There is no multi-piece assembly on arrival, so the machine gets to work quickly, and optional All-Track Steering sets it to line once it is there.

Why GOMACO


Concrete paving since 1965

GOMACO has built concrete paving equipment out of Ida Grove, Iowa since 1965 and holds ISO 9001:2015 certification. The paving line covers widths up to 50 feet (15.2 m) and depths to 19 inches (483 mm), and the same machines run on interstate mainline, airport runways, city streets, and canal work around the world.

G+ Operating System

G+ is proprietary, developed by GOMACO’s own control engineers rather than adapted from an off-the-shelf platform. It uses two-way communication between the paver and its accessories, closed-loop electronic and hydraulic control, and instant digital feedback. Contractors moving up from a GP-4000 can carry their existing attachments and sensors straight onto a new GP4.

Family owned from the start

GOMACO is still owned and run by the family that started it. Harold and Gary Godbersen founded Godbersen Manufacturing Company in 1965, and a third generation of the family is in the business today. Roughly 350 people build every machine in Ida Grove, Iowa, across more than 500,000 sq. ft. (46,450 m²) of plant, office and engineering space.
