RD18 Tandem Vibratory Roller
The RD18 articulated ride-on rollers offer a large drum diameter combined with the low machine center of gravity to ensure excellent compaction quality. The three-point articulated joint offers constant surface contact for better results, safety and a smoother ride. Unilateral drum support allows for up to the edge compaction on both sides.
- Dual drum vibration with high and low settings
- Maneuverable compact roller for superior compaction for a variety of applications
- Tapered design allows for excellent drum visibility
- Three-point articulated pendulum joint ensures uniform weight distribution for excellent compaction results, maneuverability and stability
- Available as a dual drum roller or a combination roller with front drum vibration and rear pneumatic tires
-
Unilateral drum support
- Excellent compaction performance right up to the edge: With the unilateral drum support, you have curb clearance that allows flush rolling on both sides and you can move the roller directly up to walls or curbs. Re-compaction is not required. Only available for the models RD18-100 and RD18-100C.
-
Articulated pendulum joint
- Uniform compaction, optimal driving stability: The three-point articulated pendulum joint ensures a uniform weight distribution on the front and rear drum at all times. This also improves the maneuverability and provides for maximum tipping safety and stability when turning curves.
Tandem-axle roller
Front and rear with vibration drums.
The vibration drum optimally brings the material to be compacted into oscillation with quick successive vertical forces. The built-in eccentric weight provides for a fast rotation and you get an excellent compaction performance.
Suitable for:
All traditional compaction work
Combination roller
Vibration drum in the front, tires in the rear.
Even with the combination rollers, the forces are directed vertically downwards The advantage over tandem-axle rollers are the tires. That is why combination rollers always have very good traction on gradients.
Suitable for:
Compaction work on gradients and in uneven ground conditions
Optimal view
Everything is perfectly within view: With the specially designed, tapered design of the roller, you always have an excellent view of the drum edges, the machine environment and the job site.
