The R5 can be equipped with an optional smart ICS control system to allow it to be integrated into a machine control system. It also comes with SecureLock, the firm’s secure pin locking system to prevent unintentional dropping of buckets and attachments. Rototilt is also launching a range of three compactors to be used as attachments on excavators from 3.5-26tonnes operating weight.
