How Operator Training Impacts Compaction Performance

Proper performance by your crew on the asphalt roller can help maximize mat quality

Roller operators need to understand their important role in the paving process, as compaction is the last step in laying down a quality pavement

LHC Inc. Increases Productivity & Efficiency with New Rollers

Dynapac North America LLC

The Dynapac CC6200 VI asphalt rollers have helped operators reach compaction in fewer passes which has lowered operating costs for the Montana-based construction company

The swiveling operator’s module in the CC6200 VI allows a 180-degree turn of the seat, instruments and levers. It can also slide from side to side, making it possible for the operator to see drum surfaces, sprinkler nozzles and drum edges. “Sliding and turning is all done with one handle, as opposed to numerous ones like other rollers I have run,” said operator Stanley Yeadon. “You can instantly slide over and get on point. It’s effortless.”

Benefits of Measuring Asphalt Density in Real-Time

Asphalt contractors with real-time density calculations at their fingertips have the added advantage of a proven correlation to core densities as compared to other systems

With traditional rolling efforts, some areas of the asphalt mat do not receive total coverage. Intelligent compaction (IC) was used during the construction of the Sitka Airpirty to ensure the entire asphalt mat received the correct amount of compaction effort.

Consider Safety When Selecting Compaction Equipment

Road Widener LLC

These are a few standout features for a safer, more efficient compaction roller

Relocating the compaction drum to an offset arm attachment maximizes safety. An operator can now drive the host machine on flat ground while the arm extends to the furthest, steepest edge of sloping road shoulders and ditches, while still being able to compact flat surfaces, too.

3 Tips to Maintain Vibratory Rollers and Keep Them on the Asphalt Mat

Don't let your asphalt rollers take a pounding. These quick tips can help keep them on the move and on the mat.

The water system is an essential component of asphalt rollers. Regularly inspect filters and check to make sure water is getting where it’s needed.
