What is the difference between a paver and a spreader？

1. Definition of a paver and a spreader

A paver, also known as an asphalt paver, is a road machinery and equipment specially used for asphalt pavement construction. It is mainly composed of a scraper, a grade plate, a vibration mechanism, a hydraulic system and an operating cab. A spreader is a processing equipment for asphalt materials. It heats the asphalt to a specific temperature and then sprays it on the ground that needs to be treated.

2. The role of a paver and a spreader

A paver is mainly used for asphalt pavement construction. It can quickly lay asphalt on the road surface. It has the advantages of high work efficiency, good quality and fast construction speed. A spreader is mainly used in the processing of asphalt materials. It heats the asphalt and sprays it on the ground that needs to be treated according to specific specifications. It is mainly used in road construction, bridge construction, airport runway construction and other fields.

3. The difference between a paver and a spreader

1. Functional difference: The main function of a paver is to lay asphalt on the road surface, while a spreader is mainly used to spray the processed asphalt on the ground that needs to be treated.
2. Difference in application fields: pavers are mainly used in asphalt pavement construction, while spreaders are more used in road construction, bridge construction, airport runway construction and other fields.
3. Design difference: The structure of the paver is mainly composed of scrapers, vibration mechanisms, hydraulic systems and operating cabs, while the spreader is composed of asphalt barrels, heating furnaces, spraying parts and other parts. The design concepts of the two are different.

The above is the difference between pavers and spreaders. They each have their own exclusive use areas and functions, and need to be selected according to actual needs.
