20 tonne single drum roller ASC 200 HT from Ammann with dozer blade
The trend towards using multi-functional machines on constructions sites continues. Why use, for instance, a single drum roller exclusively for compaction jobs? Ammann-Rammax offers compact machines equipped with pad foot drums and dozer blades. The next logical step in the further development of this tried and tested combination in the large roller sector was therefore only a matter of time: the ASC generation from Ammann is currently the only single drum roller series in the world that is also available with a dozer blade.
It was this aspect, in addition to high performance and low operating costs, that led construction company Georg Eichele of Abtsgmünd-Untergröningen (Germany) to decide in favour of the ASC range. Designed specifically for moving earth and landfill, the ASC single drum roller can distribute loose bulk material in situations that would otherwise require an additional push dozer.
Self-explanatory operation and safety are compelling arguments in real working situations
Why does a construction company decide in favour of Ammann after procuring the last five single drum rollers from a different manufacturer? Michael Eichele states the reasons: “Our experience with Rammax trench rollers over the past 25 years has been positive. We assume that the quality, mature product technology and good customer service will also apply to the same extent to large rollers from Ammann. The operator is particularly impressed by the well-designed layout, the logistical operation and the clear view of drum and dozer blade. The handling of the 20 tonne single drum roller is also spot-on.”
