BOMAG to Show Electric, Autonomous Rollers, Latest Tech at ConExpo
BOMAG is intending its largest exhibition display screen for ConExpo 2023, highlighting more than 40 devices, including an electric tandem-drum compactor and the independent principle Robomag 2 roller.
BOMAG's new BW 100 AD e-5 tandem roller works on 2 rechargeable batteries to power the two electrical motors that separately regulate resonance as well as traveling. Just one motor is needed for traveling, which reduces battery life, the business claims.
The electric roller is tailored towards night job or urban jobsites where noise and also emissions are problems. Its drums are 39.4 inches large and operate at 3,900/ 3,336 vibrations per minute as well as 0.020-inch amplitude.
New combi-roller
For diesel-engine ride-on rollers, BOMAG will present its new BW 120 SLC-5 mix roller, which features 1.97-inch crab guiding for condensing around structures as well as other structures.
It likewise is equipped with Intelligent Resonance Control, which allows the operator understand when optimal compaction has been attained. The roller has a 47.2-inch front vibratory steel drum as well as 4 smooth back tires.
Robomag 2
Along with its new and present equipments, BOMAG will offer a peek at the future with its Robomag 2.
The idea roller is based on the company's BW 177 D single smooth-drum compactor. With a 66.5-inch compaction width, it is geared up with GPS, LiDAR (light detection as well as ranging) and also sensing units to direct its autonomous operation. It likewise has a remote control for filling as well as unloading the roller and for completing hand-operated movement patterns, BOMAG says.
Compaction tech
BOMAG's most recent compaction innovations will be presented on a lot of its rollers at the show:
BOMAP Connect is a digital network compaction control system for tracking all the compaction equipments on a jobsite no matter brand name.
Asphalt Manager instantly changes compaction force to the asphalt floor covering's thickness and temperature level, and immediately matches vibration instructions to the roller's traveling direction to stop surges in the mat, BOMAG says.
Asphalt Pro is a cloud-based preparation program that can do such points as determine mix demands, communicate with the asphalt plant, establish the fastest path to the building website, and also pass procedure adjustments to plant employees and truck drivers, the firm says.
