DYNAPAC’S new range of articulated compact tandem rollers – the CC1100, CC1200 and CC1300 – have a lot to offer. They are quiet, modern and come with a water-cooled engine.
With operating weights of 2,400 to 3,900 kg, the rollers are available in two configurations – with dual steel vibratory drums; or as a combi version featuring one vibratory drum and four rubber tyres.
Engineered primarily for asphalt compaction on streets and pavements in urban areas, the CC1300 is also suitable for compacting sub-bases and base courses and is adequate to follow a small paver.
“Our ambition is to offer the most reliable and modern compact tandem rollers in the market, giving our customers the lowest total operational cost. Still very reliable, our new models bring more ergonomics, modern design and components, making these models exceed our customers’ expectations,” says Bengt Merkel, marketing manager, Dynapac Rollers.
The large drum diameter makes them especially effective on soft asphalt compounds. In addition, the ratio of drum diameter to static linear load considerably reduces the risk of cracks. In the combi versions, the rubber tyres are operated in pairs by separate drive motors. This reduces the risk of marring newly-laid asphalt when making sharp turns.
The high clearance at the drum edge facilitates compaction close to high kerbs. When equipped with optional features such as a sideways sliding seat and dual driving controls, there is a clear view of the edge of the drums. The new models feature state-of-the-art drivers’ platform, design and engines.
The new range is powered by water-cooled Kubota diesel engines. Important, especially, during night work is the very low noise level, which is good for the operator and the city around him,” Merkel says.
“Another advantage of this new family of rollers is that it is built up from a lot of common parts. This not only secures great parts availability now and in the future, but also indicates that these models will be offered for many years to come – thus further underlining the high second-hand value of Dynapac equipment,” he says.
The rollers are equipped with a corrosion-free, impact-resistant water tank. Three separate filters alleviate the problem of clogged sprinkler nozzles, and the entire sprinkler system can be drained easily with a few simple hand operations.
Also added is a redesigned control. Lower noise and vibration levels make operation more convenient. A very low centre of gravity keeps the machines stable, and sturdy handgrips and boarding steps make it safer to get on and off the machine, he adds.
Available with several options, the machines offer the flexibility needed for a variety of applications.
“Dynapac develops and manufactures products with the goal of sustainability – lower operating costs and long-lasting, quality equipment that creates high-quality results for the companies who use Dynapac. This range of articulated small tandem asphalt rollers is no exception. Our quiet, safe, reliable and easy to handle rollers will most likely exceed customers’ expectations,” Merkel concludes.
