VÖGELE SUPER 1803-2 - The Advantages at a Glance


The SUPER 1803-2 is the most powerful wheeled paver in the range of VÖGELE products. At a high level of perfection, it combines features such as sturdy and reliable material handling, large pave widths up to 8m, excellent mobility and easy transfer under its own power. Thanks to the paver’s statically defined undercarriage, permanent ground contact of its powered wheels is always ensured. Among the new machine’s highlighting features is ErgoPlus®, the VÖGELE concept for paver handling. ErgoPlus® offers a maximum of clarity, simplicity and ease of operation. Operators have never had it so good. They enjoy a modern workplace of ergonomic design leaving nothing to be desired. The SUPER 1803-2 sets new standards in terms of paver operation and user-friendliness.


Being one of the most powerful wheeled pavers in its class, the SUPER 1803-2 handles a wide range of applications from narrow pave widths through to motorway. Please note a feature truly out of the ordinary for a wheeled paver: SUPER 1803-2 can be combined with a screed coming with the full package of VÖGELE high compaction technology.

Efficient and Eco-Friendly Drive Concept

  • Powerful PERKINS engine developing 129.6kW at just 2,000 rpm. The modern, low-noise engine complies with exhaust standards COM 3a and EPA.
  • Different speed ranges are available which select conveniently at the push of a button (MIN, ECO Mode, MAX).
  • ECO Mode (125 kW at 1,800 rpm) is sufficient for many paving applications.Working in ECO Mode further decreases engine noise emission, reduces fuel consumption and wear.
  • A constant pave speed is one of the crucial factors when it comes to achieving excellent pavement quality. Electronic engine management, installed in the SUPER 1803-2, ensures a consistent engine output to match demand.
  • Powerful three-phase A.C. generator with generator management controlling generator output in compliance with your pave width. Heating the screed’s compacting systems to operating temperature takes a short time only.
  • Thanks to a large cooler assembly with innovative air routing, perfect cooling of engine cooling liquid, hydraulic oil and charge air. Noise emission is very low.
  • A constantly high cooling capacity provides for ideal temperatures inside the hydraulic system and top performance of all drive units even when working under full load and at high ambient temperatures up to 50° C.
  • For hydraulic functions, powerful separate drives are installed operating in closed circuits, thus delivering highest outputs.

Mobility on Wheels

  • Small turning radius (outside) of just 6.5m allows easy and quick manoeuvring even in tight corners.
  • Maximum power transmission thanks to separate, hydraulic drives provided for the rear wheels and one set of front wheels (all-wheel drive as an option).
  • Electronic Traction Management guarantees optimum tractive effort and protects the engine against overload.
  • Permanent ground contact due to front wheels with proven, statically defined three-point support.
  • Travels rapidly on roads (up to 20km/h) and moves quickly on the job site.
  • Thanks to its compact design, trucking is easy. Little space required for transport cuts down on haulage cost.

Large Material Hopper and Easy Feed with Mix

  • The large material hopper holding 13 tonnes is amply dimensioned so that a sufficient quantity of mix is stored at all times. No problem to tide over difficult situations such as paving under bridges, for instance.
  • Easy feed with mix thanks to low material hopper, wide hopper sides and sturdy rubber baffles fitted to the hopper front.
  • Large oscillating push-rollers for convenient and shock-free docking of feed vehicles.
  • Thanks to a hydraulically operated hopper front (option), no spills of mix when feed lorries change. Directs the mix inside the material hopper right onto the conveyors, so no hand work with shovels required. The entirety of mix is properly conveyed in front of the screed.

Perfect Conveyance and Spreading of Mix - A Must for Prime Pavement Quality

  • Powerful, separate hydraulic drives for conveyors and augers are installed achieving laydown rates up to 700 tonnes/h.
  • Proportional control and continuous monitoring provided for conveyors and augers guarantee a constant head of mix in front of the screed in conformity with the requirement.
  • Augers complete with bearing boxes and limiting plates for the auger tunnel are infinitely variable in height up to 20cm.
  • Due to auger height adjustment, optimal spreading of mix even when paving thin layers or on sections where layer thickness varies.
  • Large diameter of auger blades (400mm) for excellent spreading of mix when paving in large widths.

Easy Maintance - Long Intervals Between Maintenance Services

  • A wide engine hood and large hinged panels give convenient access to service points on the machine.
  • All hydraulic pumps attached to the transfer gearbox. Their clear arrangement and easy access provides for service-friendliness at the highest level.
  • Centralized lubrication system installed to automatically supply required amounts of grease to bearings of conveyors and augers.
  • Sturdy components of highly wear-resistant materials for long service lives minimize downtime.
  • A uniform service concept for all VÖGELE pavers simplifies maintenance and cuts expenditure on training.
