Bitelli BB740 – asphalt paver from Minerbio near Bologna
Bitelli was a construction machinery maker in Minerbio near Bologna and the largest Italian road machinery firm. Beppino Bitelli built his first three-wheel roller in 1933; the Bitelli Road Mechanics company was formed in 1957 and its first paver appeared in 1978. Road profilers and soil stabilizers were added in the 1980s. On 2 May 2000 Caterpillar bought the company and the Bitelli name disappeared; some models continued in the Cat line.
