Dynapac develops drum steer compactor

The new Atlas Copco Dynapac CG2300 has steering on the drums and comes in addition to the firm’s articulated CC machines. The CG2300 is 3.99m long, 2.99m high and has an inner turning radius of only 2.65m, and an off-set as big as 1.2m. It can be operated in confined spaces and the offset allows it to operate close to kerbs or highway barriers. The CG2300 machine has an ECO Mode that reduces fuel consumption by over 15% and that also helps to lowers operating noise. Working noise is further reduced by a hy

Dynapac develops new drum steer compactor
The new 161 Atlas Copco 206 Dynapac CG2300 has steering on the drums and comes in addition to the firm’s articulated CC machines. The CG2300 is 3.99m long, 2.99m high and has an inner turning radius of only 2.65m, and an off-set as big as 1.2m. It can be operated in confined spaces and the offset allows it to operate close to kerbs or highway barriers.

The CG2300 machine has an ECO Mode that reduces fuel consumption by over 15% and that also helps to lowers operating noise. Working noise is further reduced by a hydraulic, temperature-guided cooling fan. A double pump vibration system makes the system more efficient, aiding servicing and also further lowering fuel consumption.
