Heavy duty from Ammann’s eARX 26-2 Light Roller

While categorised as a ‘light’ machine, the compactor actually has an operating weight of 2,640kg

Ammann’s eARX 26-2 Light Tandem Roller features a fully electric drive that can operate for up to 10 hours without recharging.

While categorised as a ‘light’ machine, the compactor actually has an operating weight of 2,640kg. “To have a fully electric machine of this size is a breakthrough,” said Vlasta Medek, Ammann’s global commercial manager for heavy compaction.

Because it is not a combustion engine, the eARX 26-2 is extremely quiet during operation. Sound levels reaching the operator station are 46% less than a diesel version.

The powertrain concept eliminates almost all hydraulic components. The ecological impact is also lessened – and total ownership costs significantly reduced – by replacing the diesel engine and its cooling system.

A key point is the advanced 48V battery pack with a capacity of 600Ah (31.5kWh). The pack’s LiFePO4 technology has each internal battery cell independently protected, so the entire pack is flame-resistant which increases safety.

    Hamm continues to develop its sophisticated soil compactor range with the addition of models aimed at the 11-16tonne weight classes. These are powered by Tier 4 Interim/Stage IIIB compliant diesels and share the same design concept as well as features and many components with the existing 18-15tonne rollers. The high compaction performance and unobstructed sight lines from the cab of the larger machines have also been carried over into the smaller units. The H11i, H13i and H16i compactors have 2.14m wide d
