According to Dynapac, its CG2300 twin drum asphalt roller offers compact compaction due to its novel drum steering system. Measuring 3.99m long by 2.99m high, the CG2300 offers an inner turning radius of just 2.65m as well as a maximum offset of 1.2m, which allows it to operate in tight spaces. This tight turning capability makes the machine more versatile and highly manoeuvrable, while also making it easier to transport to and from site.
Efficient new soil compaction machines featuring the latest technology are now coming to market – Mike Woof reports The start of 2014 has seen a major development for the construction equipment sector, with the Tier 4 Final emissions requirements at last beginning to take effect. The implications of the drive towards the introduction of low emission engine technology have been seen right across the off-highway machinery equipment industry, and the soil compaction segment is no exception.
As a ground-breaking addition to the highly popular and versatile CA3500D, the new Dynapac CA3500D SEISMIC Soil Roller continues to demonstrate its effectiveness not only in achieving optimal compaction but in saving fuel on the job site. This was recently confirmed by the Swedish National Road and Transport Research Institute (VTI).
Dynapac and Leica Geosystems are launching automated steering and screed edge control for asphalt pavers.
Together, the two firms are introducing a new integrated interface for auto-steering and screed edge control system for the SD25 and XD25 Highway Paver series.
The auto-steering and screed edge control features are being enabled on Dynapac asphalt pavers with the Leica iCON pave solution.
