TOWED ROLLERS: SPECIFICATIONS AND PARAMETERS
A towed roller is a type of construction equipment used for leveling and compacting the ground, gravel, clay, asphalt and other types of surfaces.
From the constructive point of view, a towed roller is a rectangular frame within which there is a roller (heavy cylinder) fixed on the axle. With the help of the hitch mechanism, this construction is concatenated to a tractor or a tractor unit. Except for the need to use additional towing vehicle, the towed roller is just like other equipment in the class of rollers in its basic principle of operation. Due to the large weight of the roller, moving over the surface of a substance layer entails its leveling and compacting.
It should be noted that work with different types of surfaces requires different types of rollers to be applied in the towed rollers. For example, compaction of asphalt-concrete mixtures requires use of rollers with a smooth surface; rollers with protrusions are used for working with the loose soil and in the case of necessity to work with heterogeneous soil, it is logical to apply the rollers with latticed surface adapted for shattering globs.
Some models of towed rollers are also equipped with a special system transmitting vertical vibration to the roller, which can significantly increase the effectiveness of the compaction.
