Road Roller

The roller compactor is another name for road roller compactor equipment. This is a type of engineering locomotive that is used in compacting gravel, concrete, soil, and asphalt materials during the construction of foundations and also in road construction. Rollers of similar designs and working principles are used in agriculture and also in landfills. Asphalt rollers have been in use for a long time now, but even with the advancement in technology, they continue to use the same working principle. A single drum roller for sale can be readily purchased from Camamach, the leading distributor of equipment and machinery. Due to their wide range of utilization, the highway rollers are readily available throughout the world, but the road roller cost varies depending on the model being used.

Types of roller compactors

There are very many types of road roller compactor machines that we sell, and they vary depending on the size, the unique features of the rollers, and the extraordinary capabilities they have. Here are 4 types of vibratory rollers that are the most commonly used in road and foundation construction today.

1. 12-ton road roller

This is the smallest pavement compactor available today, and it is most suitable for small-scale operations. It has an operating weight of 12tons as the name suggests and the weight of the front drum, which is responsible for rolling is6.7tons, which is sufficient for small-scale operations. This type of roller has a moving speed ranging of up to10.4km/h and features a maximum grade ability of 45%. The minimum external turning radius is 6.8m, which is sufficient and ensures that the machine takes up as little space as possible during operations. The rated power input required by the roller compactor machine to achieve 2200r/m is 93kW, which is easy to achieve and maintain.

2. 16-ton road roller

This is most suitable for small-medium scale ground compacting operations, featuring an operating weight of 16tons and a front drum weight of 7.7tons. It achieves a static linear pressure of 362N/cm, and it has a speed range of 2.54-10.51km/h. This is quite fast and coupled with a minimum turning radius of 6.5m, and a maximum grade ability of 35%, making the roller outstanding in the performance output. The machine has a vibrating frequency of 28Hz, and it is engine-run, with a power input requirement of 115kW, to achieve 1800r/min. It also has a considerably large fuel tank capacity of 240L which ensures time and energy are not lost due to the constant need for refueling in the course of operation.

3. 20-ton road roller

This is a drum roller compactor machine that is suitable for ground rolling activities that range from medium to large-scale. It features an operating weight of 20tons with the weight of the front axle load standing at 13.5tons, which is quite heavy and therefore improves the efficiency of the roller in compacting aggregates. It has an increased vibration frequency of 28-33Hz and an excitation force of 370/255kN. The speed of the machine during work ranges from 4-10km/h, which helps enhance the efficiency of the machine at work. To achieve a rated speed of 2200r/min, the roller requires a rated power input of 140Kw.

4. 26-ton road roller

This is a compactor roller machine that is the largest, with a working weight of 26tons, making it the most suitable for large-scale commercial ground compacting needs. It requires a rated power input of 140kw to achieve a rotation speed of 1800r/m and an exciting force of 405/290kN. This is a heavy-duty commercial asphalt roller machine that is very efficient and productive.
