The CA6000: fifth generation roller
206 Dynapac’s new fifth generation CA single drum vibratory rollers are the first of their type with cross-mounted engines and they can run using a mix of biodiesel and diesel.
The CA5000, CA6000 and CA6500 compactors feature a fuel-saving system designed to reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions and new design to make servicing and maintenance easier.
Among other new features are optimised amplitude for improved compaction performance and ‘Active Bouncing Control’ to prevent damage to the machine and over-compaction.
The three new CA rollers have static linear loads of 50, 60 and 65kg/cm, respectively. The amplitude of 2.1mm is designed to allow rock fill to be compacted in almost 2m-thick layers and the rock size can be up to 1m in diameter. This results in higher volume capacity and fewer passes to reach compaction specifications, said Dynapac, giving fuel savings and reducing the cost per compacted cubic metre.
The new CA rollers are available with Stage IIIB engines (prepared for Stage IV) from 201 Deutz. They can be used with a mix of biodiesel and fossil diesel fuel; some can be run on 20% biodiesel. A fuel-saving system is designed to minimise fuel consumption and CO2 emissions by ensuring that the roller does not consume more power than needed at any time.
Perkins has completed its line-up of four-cylinder engines for Tier 4 Final/Stage IV with the introduction of the 854F-E34TA – the latest in its 800 Series range. The compact, four-cylinder, 3.4litre engine incorporates specially developed SCR technology for the first time. Packaged separately from the DOC module, it can be mounted in either a horizontal or vertical position, giving OEMs of compact machinery greater installation flexibility in the engine bay.
Boppard based BOMAG is unveiling its new 5-8tonne class soil compactors, which are said to offer increased performance and lower running costs. Compact, manoeuvrable and economical the BW145 and BW177 machines are said to be highly productive and suited to use on small-medium size projects. High performance is claimed for compaction, gradeability and efficiency and Judith Rheingans of the firm said, “The operator platform has been redesigned to give better visibility and access. The operator can see the dru
Claimed to offer up to 20% greater fuel efficiency than previous models, Caterpillar will be unveiling its 988K wheeled loader at bauma. The 988K, a complete upgrade of the H Series, meets the stringent European Union (EU) Stage IV/United States (U.S.) EPA Tier 4 Final emission standards. Another Cat wheeled loader being showcased at bauma is the 966K XE, equipped with an advanced powertrain system.
Claiming to be the only 2.5m feeder on the market, Dynapac says its new MF2500C material feeder offers easy and cost effective transport (no need for permissions). “Operating contact-free, the Dynapac MF2500CS feeder ensures an even material flow for all kind of asphalt and gravel layers,”says Dynapac. The core of the Dynapac MF2500C is its high-performance conveying system, which can feed 27tonnes of gravel, sand or asphalt in 35 seconds, says Dynapac.
