Model UT-45 for Parabolic Track

Tandem Roller machine is Weighing between 5000 kg and 6000 kg developed for reliability, low cost of operation, operation safety, serviceability, maneuverability, performance, operator comfort, and best in class durability for the special purpose compaction of Parabolic surface application. The tandem roller is also powered by the Kirloskar engine, which also makes it highly fuel-efficient, providing the lowest fuel consumption in its class. Tandem Roller are used to compact various surfaces, such as asphalt, gravel, and soil. These machines consist of two drums that rotate in opposite directions, applying pressure to the surface being compacted.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Tandem Roller?

A tandem roller, also known as a double-drum roller, is a type of compaction equipment used in road construction and maintenance. It features two steel drums—one at the front and one at the rear—that compact and smooth surfaces such as asphalt and soil.

How does a tandem roller work?

A tandem roller works by applying pressure and vibration through its two drums. As the machine moves, the drums rotate and compress the material beneath them, reducing air pockets and ensuring a firm, even surface.

What are the advantages of using a tandem roller?

Even Compaction: The double-drum design ensures uniform compaction across the surface.
High Efficiency: Covers a large area in a shorter amount of time compared to single-drum rollers.
Smooth Finish: Provides a smooth, consistent finish ideal for roads, highways, and large paved surfaces.
Versatility: Suitable for various materials, including asphalt, gravel, and soil.

What are the key components of a tandem roller?

Drums: Two heavy steel drums that compact the material.
Engine: Powers the machine and its vibration mechanisms.
Vibration System: Enhances the compaction process through controlled vibrations.
Operator Cabin/Controls: Houses the controls for steering, speed, and vibration settings.
Water Spray System: Keeps the drums wet to prevent asphalt from sticking.

What safety features are included in tandem rollers?

Roll-Over Protection Systems (ROPS): Protects the operator in case of a rollover.
Seat Belts: Keeps the operator secure during operation.
Emergency Stop Controls: Allows for quick shutdown in emergencies.
Visibility: Designed for clear visibility of the work area to enhance safety.

What maintenance is required for a tandem roller?

Regular maintenance includes checking the engine oil, hydraulic fluids, and drum condition, inspecting the vibration system, and ensuring the water spray system is functioning properly. Routine inspections help prevent downtime and extend the life of the machine.
