Designed For High Volume

GOMACO's PS-2600 Placer/Spreader is designed to meet worldwide demands in new and reconstruction of highways, airport pavements, streets and parking lots. It accepts concrete from end dump trucks, conveys material to the grade, spreads the material to the desired width and strikes off at a predetermined width and depth of the application.

• The GOMACO PS-2600 is built for maximum placing and spreading productivity in central mix operations.
• The 5 ft. (1.52 m) wide GOMACO-designed conveyor system is built with the strength and durability to catch the concrete load from end-dump trucks.
• The drive system for the conveyor belt has the capacity to run the 22 ft. (6.71 m) long conveyor belt to nearly 500 fpm (152.4 mpm), allowing the trucks to unload quickly.
• The conveyor deflector directs the flow of concrete at the discharge end of conveyor.
• The belt frame is hinged and can hydraulically raise and lower to allow trucks to pass by.
• The symmetrical design of the conveyor allows it to be mounted on the left or the right side, depending on job-site logistics.
• Spreading width up to 32 ft. (9.75 m). Material is moved with a 20 in. (508 mm) diameter, hydraulic, split, reversible auger.
• Hydraulically pressure-compensated sideplates provide edge control and a spreading depth up to 19 in. (483 mm).
• The GOMACO G21 proprietary digital operating system features self diagnostics for front and rear grade, cross slope, steering, reverse steering, and selective steer controls for placing and spreading accuracy and ease of operation. The sensors on the placer/spreader operate off the same stringline as the paver. A counter-rotation feature also provides 360 degree turning radius within the machine's width.
• Placing and spreading concrete with the two-track GOMACO PS-2600 in front of a slipform paver helps provide high production and positive rideability results.

Emission-Controlled Engine Achieves Optimum Performance

The GOMACO PS-2600 placer/spreader is powered by a 275 hp (205.2 kW) Caterpillar C9, 8.8 Liter turbocharged diesel engine. The electronic-compliant engine reduces emissions and meets the required industry emission control standards being mandated for off-road diesel equipment throughout the world. The engine provides cleaner combustion and is tuned to achieve optimum performance.

The modular engine design provides easy access to service points. The 150 gal. (567.8 L) fuel reservoir and the 207 gal. (783.6 L) hydraulic oil reservoir are both independent of the main frame.

Modular Telescoping Frame Provides Width Changes

The unique telescoping frame on the PS-2600 extends 6 ft. 6 in. (1.98 m) on the left side. The PS-2600 provides contractors with spreading widths from 12 ft. (3.66 m) to 32 ft. (9.75 m).

The Power of GOMACO's G21 Proprietary Digital Operating System

The G21 Controller is easy to use, easy to read, easy to service, reliable, cost effective, and has the ability to incorporate technology available today and in the future. The award winning G21 proprietary digital operating system is featured on GOMACO's PS-2600 placer/spreader. The exclusive G21 brings a whole new level of system diagnostics and computing power with an easy-to-operate control panel. This unique system provides better control. This exclusive system is operator friendly and provides a universal design that is simple to read and understand. A red LED display offers user-friendly operation and high visibility for monitoring deviation meters. The G21 interfaces with stringless technology/3-D control systems and laser technology.

Designed For Dependable and Safe Service

GOMACO equipment is carefully designed to give years of dependable and safe service. The PS-2600 has five emergency stop buttons, one on the operator's console and one on each corner of the machine. The four E-Stops on the corners of the machine are accessible from the ground level.

Another safety feature includes a backup alarm, which is designed to alert personnel around the machine when the tracks are set to operate in reverse. There is also an alarm that sounds when the conveyor belt frame is raised and lowered, to allow trucks to pass by. Other safety features include track guards, warning decals, operator's manual, safety manual, and excellent visibility over the entire placing and spreading operation.

The GOMACO PS-2600 With Rock Hopper Provides Full-Width Aggregate Spreading For Base Preparation

The PS-2600, equipped with the GOMACO rock hopper, provides high-production placing and spreading of aggregate. On this project, placing averaged 550 ft. (168 m) an hour at 28 ft. (8.53 m) wide. The GOMACO RTP-500 rubber-tracked placer fed the aggregate into the rock hopper and the PS-2600 placed the aggregate at the proper thickness over the geotextile fabric. This system provided the placement of 2800 tons (2,540,160 kg) of rock in a single day. That's 311 tons (282,139 kg) an hour or five tons (4536 kg) a minute.
