Compactors for light- and medium-duty applications

Compactors for light- and medium-duty applications
Ingersoll Rand’s DD-22 and DD-24 double drum asphalt compactors for light- and medium-duty applications feature a number of innovations that enhance overall performance.

The DD-22 has a drum width of 39 inches (1000 mm) and an operating weight of 5,400 pounds (2 450 kg). The DD-24 has a drum width of 47 inches (1200 mm) and an operating weight of 5,725 pounds (2 600 kg).

The propulsion system features hydrostatic drive to both drums in series to provide a quality mat. An optional anti-slip control (ASC) can be added to provide enhanced traction by use of a flow divider, giving the machine the ability to handle the toughest traction demands with ease.

The DD-22 and DD-24 double drum units are built to produce the right combination of amplitude, centrifugal force and frequency to maximize daily productivity. Both compactors provide the choice of automatic or manual vibration and can operate in three modes: statically, front drum vibration only, or both drums vibrating. Two vibrating frequencies – 3,300 or 4,020 vibrations per minute – allow the DD-22 and DD-24 to produce smooth, dense mats with a reduced number of passes. At 4,020 vibrations per minute, these compactors have one of the highest frequencies in their class.
