Innovation in Compaction

Developments in hydraulics and electronics have made it possible for manufacturers to improve the compactive effort and effectiveness of rollers and plate compactors.

The move from static to vibratory rollers, like many of the innovations contractors see in commercial rollers, began in the larger highway models and 'trickled down' to the smaller rollers.

Roller Safety, Comfort Improve Productivity - and Manufacturers Respond

The last 25 years have brought many innovations to the compaction industry including advancements in ergonomics and safety.

Manufacturers say all innovations, from hydraulics and electronics to ergonomics and safety, is applied and tested on highway rollers but eventually finds its way to commercial and residential compaction equipment.
