'ARX: 13 MODELS ON 3 CHASSIS'

 

In 2012, Ammann introduced a new extended range of lightweight tandem rollers: the ARX range with 13 models in the weight categories 1.5 – 4.5 tonnes and working widths from 820 – 1380 mm to replace the successful AVM-2 model range. Light Tandem Rollers setting a new standard, all models have an optimum design with regard to use and economic efficiency based on three product categories.

 

A new hydraulic concept coupled with the latest Yanmar diesel engine technology is responsible for a significant increase in efficiency. It allows the diesel engine to run at a much lower speed, effectively reducing consumption and noise emissions. A generously designed operator station with vibration insulation, a simple and clearly laid out operating panel and the multi-functional drive lever form a unit that any driver will welcome for ergonomic reasons and more.

 

The lightest platform from 1.4 to 1.6 tonnes operating weight and working widths from 82 to 100 cm offers 3 models for small job sites of asphalt or gravel layer compaction.

 

Specific focus for the most common size of small tandem rollers was assured having a separate platform for the ARX 23 and ARX 26 (weight class 2.3 - 2.6t, working widths 100 and 120 cm). This results in the best 'Quality - Performance - Cost' ratio on the market.

 

Our compact ARX tandem vibratory rollers are tailor-made for assignments on smaller and medium-sized sites in the road building, garden construction and landscaping sectors and have a wide range of applications on small and medium construction sides, city roads and repair works in city centre.

 

Whether for laying work on blacktop or for compacting un-bonded layers, the ARX rollers offer proven compaction efficiency and effectiveness.

The whole of the operators’ platform is isolated from vibration. The rollers have the lowest Whole Body, and Hand Arm Vibration (HAV) figures. The seat, steering, and F/Rev. Lever, and even the floor are vibration isolated.

 

Benefits at a glance:

• Full side clearance right and left

• Easy engine access

• Teflon articulated joint with lifetime lubrication

• Multiple water filtration

• Foldable ROPS for easy transport

• UPS: Electric drive lever for smooth start/stop

Combination Version

The ARX-rollers are also available as combination rollers ARX16 K, 23K, 26K, 40K and 45K. The combination model has an in-built anti-adhesive tank with direct pressurised sprinkler system to the tyres. The control of the anti-adhesive sprinklers is operated by a separate hand switch. The standard interval-sprinkler switch allows optimum water-supply on every asphalt-job.

 

Side-free Model

The ARX12 - 20 tandem vibrating rollers are supplied as full flush models with double drive and double vibration as standard. This feature enables the drum to compact completely up against a wall. There is no more additional tuning work needed with additional compaction equipment.

 

All machines come with front and rear vibration and drive, control system with emergency stop, pressurised plus interval sprinkler system, Ammann Vibration Control 2 working frequencies and hydraulic test-port as standard. There is also a lateral sliding seat on ARX23 - 45 and there is the option of a central lifting hook on ARX 2.
