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.
John Deere Power Systems’ (JDPS) entire Final Tier 4/Stage IV diesel engine line-up can be seen with the company showing its familiar PowerTech displacements of 2.9, 4.5, 6.8, 9 and 13.5litres. United States Final Tier 4 and European Union Stage IV emissions regulations for mobile off-highway diesel engines 56kW and above will be implemented in stages starting in 2014 and 2015. These standards maintain the particulate matter (PM) levels established by Interim Tier 4/Stage III B regulations while requiring a
Deutz used bauma to show two hybrid projects it is currently working on, including a hybrid drive for excavators and an innovative start/stop system for compact wheeled loaders. The hybrid drive is based on using a 160kW Deutz TCD 6.1 L6 engine with an integrated motor-generator. The engine is linked to an on-board electrical power network that uses super capacitors, a power inverter and an electric slew motor, allowing components to harvest, store and use electrical energy, specifically for slewing functio

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.
