Tandem Rollers – What To Keep In Mind

A tandem roller, also known as a tandem asphalt compactor, is a construction automobile used to harden paving materials mixtures of asphalt and concrete already compacted.

Tandem rollers have two cylindrical drums that are used to compact surfaces. In most cases, the drums vibrate, but some rollers even have oscillating drums to enhance the process of compacting.

How It Works

The process of compaction is mechanical, and several forces are exerted to make the layer of asphalt or soil more stiff and dense. Compaction is done to lessen the air gaps in the soil or asphalt and to bring the aggregate materials closer together.

The two steel drums acting as wheels give a smooth mat finish to the equipment. When they vibrate, they ensure a high degree of hardening force for complex and detailed work. A tandem roller’s purpose is to create a compact substrate of all the underlying layers and hence, they are used on all layers of asphalt or soil while paving a surface.

Types of Tandem Rollers

Small tandem rollers – Small tandem rollers weighing 5 tons or less are ideal for medium and small-scale operations like maintenance jobs, repairing patches on motorways, driveways, footpaths, parking lots, and so on.

Heavy tandem rollers – These weighing from 7 to 14 tons are designed for large-scale projects where it is necessary to deal with incoming asphalt, gravel, or road base. They are used mainly for paving roads, bridges, and highways, because of their increased frequency of vibration and higher rolling speeds.

Advantages Of Using a Tandem Roller

Tandem rollers have a marked superiority over other types of rollers like static road rollers and single drum rollers in specific areas of application. They ensure:

• Ability to counter the weight of one drum with another, thus diminishing the chances of causing damage to concrete edges and gutters.

• Enhanced rolling speed and frequency of vibration

• The presence of water sprinklers to prevent paving materials from sticking to the drum and causing internal damage

• Better vision for the operators as they can see the edge of the drum while the roller is in motion

• Ability to rotate the operator’s seat from one side of the roller to another, enabling easy switching of direction (although this feature is available only in certain models)

We help you find not only tandem rollers but also a large variety of machinery ranging from gensets, milling machines, concrete pumps, wheel loaders, dozers, and many more.
