“Product support is key …”


Is the opinion of father and son team, Phil and William O’Rourke, proprietors of Portsmouth based O’Rourke Infrastructure Services Ltd (OIS) as they take delivery of their third Volvo P6870C wheeled paver.


Established in 2010, the family-run business started their relationship with Volvo by purchasing a second-hand Volvo paver which had been factory rebuilt and then soon replaced with a brand new one. They have now just replaced that with their third P6870C paver. “It’s all about the support and back up,” says Phil. “The P6870C is an excellent paver, it lays an exceptionally good mat and is a reliable machine, but it’s SMT’s ability to support us when we need it which is the underlying reason for continuing with Volvo pavers.” As son William points out: “SMT’s engineer, Jay Bridgstock always goes the extra mile to help us resolve any issues when they occur. We simply cannot fault this level of support – it’s first class. And our SMT contact, Colin Mackenzie is always ready to deliver what is promised and to rectify any issues without fuss.


His knowledge and passion for the brand is very reassuring.” The P6870C is powered by a Volvo D6 Stage-IIIB compliant 175hp engine, and at its heart features the EPM II – an electronic paver management system which incorporates a ‘Settings Management’ system allowing the operator to store up to twelve parameter settings for the major functions such as screed temperature, tamping and vibrating, conveyor, auger and paving speeds. The machine has other unique features such as ‘Smart Power’, offering optimum power for the job in hand together with 6x6 ‘Smart Drive’ technology for unparalleled continuous independent traction-control over all six wheels. Even on the most difficult bases, tractive forces are automatically adjusted according to the weight of material in the machine’s 12-tonne capacity hopper.
