Choice of oscillation or vibration
The new 3307 VIO from Wirtgen’s Hamm Compaction Division gives contractors the option of either unique oscillation or conventional vibration for soil and base compaction in a 66-inch-wide drum machine. A larger model is the 84-inch Hamm 3412 VIO.
The drum achieves an oscillation or conventional vibration frequency of 2,160 vpm, with a centrifugal force of 27,675 pounds, oscillating or vibrating. The 3307 VIO has a travel speed of 7.7 mph and is powered by a Deutz BF4M 2011 diesel engine generating 87 hp.
Hamm’s exclusive oscillation compaction is ideal for fast compaction above softer bases or other materials that could be disturbed or damaged by conventional vibration. Yet the 3307 VIO permits the operator to switch to regular vibration for conventional compaction.
Oscillation compaction works by imparting a horizontal force into the base material, side-to-side, rather than by forcing it downwards by an up-and-down motion. The drum never leaves the material. The result is better compaction in fewer passes, with less vibration-related wear and tear on operators and surroundings.
The 3307 VIO features variable hydrostatic all-wheel traction drive, hydrostatic steering, and high climbing power through traction control. A three-point articulation joint for highest driving comfort is provided, and Hammtronic electronic machine management is available as an option.
