Power Curbers, makers of the 5700 Series, introduced the next generation of the 5700. In January 2020 the 5700-D replaces the 5700-C as the "one machine solution" for concrete slipform applications. The 5700-D excels in curbing, sidewalk, barrier, ditches, paving, tunnel, agricultural and specialized applications, according to the manufacturer. Compact size, simple design, easy operation, high productivity and versatility remain core features of the 5700-D.
