Midland Machinery has introduced a new model road widener with the capability to be transported without permits day, night or weekends.

The SPF-8 is a compact package capable of spreading material from 1 to 8 ft. (.3 to 2.4 m) from its 3 cu. yd. (2.3 cu m) fold-up hopper by way of a movable, variable speed, 500 tons per hour (453 t) conveyor. This foldable machine transforms to 98.5 in. (250 cm) width for transport.

The SPF-8 gives the operator versatility to quickly transform from right to left hand discharge of material depending on job requirements. Powered by a John Deere 74 hp engine, the SPF-8 can push a fully loaded 18 wheeler, according to the manufacturer.
