When you think of Ammann Rollers, what comes to mind? Construction, roadbuilding, concrete work? While all of these are key use cases for Ammann equipment there’s often opportunities to think outside of the box about unique solutions using equipment.

What is a Tandem Roller Really for?

Ammann rollers are heavy duty machines with double drum rollers used often to develop infrastructure such as roads and building foundations. The rollers create a dense substrate of below layers using its shape and weight. These machines have several benefits beyond the three-point roller and other variations as they:

1. Offset drums to avoid damage to gutters, edges, and other ground factors.
2. Improved vision as operators can see beyond the front roller wheel.
3. Exclusive to Ammann equipment in our line-up, these machines can utilize hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) reducing carbon emissions by up to 90%.
4. Ammann’s ARX series has GPS-Based information recorded for visualization and information regarding the job status.

So How Could an Ammann Roller Help Beyond the Roads?

One Ammann roller is on a journey in Turkiye with the country’s leading landscaping production company Çim Dünyası being used to help the natural growth of turf for golfing and landscaping projects. The powerful and efficient machine performs stronger than dedicated equipment in this use case leading to great benefits for the turf producers. For long hours in the field conducting turf maintenance, the Ammann roller provides a great place to be in the operator seat with wide leg room and comfortable seat.
