Dynapac expands offering

Dynapac has added four tandem rollers, three plates and a compact planer to its offering.

The four 7/8t and 8/9t asphalt rollers come in solid or split drum design and feature a 'soft' start and stop, while a double pump vibration system eliminates the need or a vibration valve.

On a smaller scale, the new LF forward compaction plates range from 75kg to 100kg (420mm or 500mm wide plates), are 20% faster than their predecessors and the optional low-vibration handle reduces exposure levels below 2.5m/s². A removable water tank converts from soil to asphalt compaction and the special distribution system is said to water the bottom plate uniformly.

The new PL500T compact planer is designed to cut round street furniture and has a 500mm cutting width and an adjustable cutting depth of up to 160mm. The four-wheel drive unit has a working speed of up to 24m/min and a maximum travel speed of 5.3km/h.

Also new is a hand-held soil compaction analyser called CompLogger, which provides real-time images of the compacted surface.
