With the rise of autonomous asphalt paving and intelligent machine control, the industry is entering a new era: Road Construction 4.0.

Dynapac has moved beyond the concept phase of Road Construction 4.0, delivering digital levelling systems and autonomous paving technologies that are proven solutions already in real-world use.

With the new SD and XD generation of Dynapac highway pavers, contractors are relying on state-of-the-art technology that is already available today for the construction projects of tomorrow.

The machines are optimized for the demands of modern jobsites and deliver a new level of precision, efficiency and reliability.

Autonomous paving is no longer a vision, but an available practice and it is already required in many tenders.

A key element of this development is seamless connectivity. Dynapac enables integration of 3D control systems from leading manufacturers such as Leica Geosystems, Trimble and Topcon. Thanks to the bi-directional Open Interface, the latest systems from these partners interact directly with PaveOS Pro, Dynapac’s machine software for paver control.

Presets for 3D levelling systems can be configured directly on the machine, significantly simplifying setup and operation. The result is a consistent, intuitive workflow that allows the operator to focus on the construction site rather than on complex system changes.

Dynapac technology provides true 3D navigation tailored to the requirements of real-world paving operations. The machine continuously adapts and guides the paver safely and precisely across the jobsite.

Height control, slope control, direction control and width control work together as an integrated system, ensuring consistently high paving quality.

Through cooperation with Leica Geosystems, Dynapac can now also offer GPS/RTK-based horizontal control for pavers. In this setup, the machine automatically manages direction and paving width, while paving height continues to be controlled traditionally using proven 2D components. This hybrid approach significantly reduces system complexity and eases the operator’s workload without compromising accuracy or reliability.

The operator always remains in full control. The machine handles the precision work, while the operator monitors the process and intervenes when necessary. This combination of human expertise and automated accuracy significantly reduces sources of error and rework.

Designed for real-world applications, Dynapac’s autonomous paving solutions are fully proven technologies. They already deliver measurable benefits on construction sites worldwide and set new benchmarks for quality, productivity and digital integration in modern road construction
