AUTOMATIC MATERIAL FEED ADJUSTMENT SYSTEM
A paving machine includes a frame, a drive assembly including a steering mechanism, a hopper, a screed assembly, a material delivery system disposed on the frame and configured to transport a volume of paving material to the screed assembly, and a material feed adjustment system. The material delivery system includes a left conveyor having a left conveyor speed, a right conveyor having a right conveyor speed, a left auger having a left auger speed, and a right auger having a right auger speed. The material feed adjustment system includes a steering input sensor configured to transmit a steering angle of the steering mechanism, and a controller in electronic communication with the steering input sensor. The controller is configured to automatically control the left conveyor speed, the right conveyor speed, the left auger speed and the right auger speed based on the steering angle to maintain the target pile size.
