The small articulated tandem rollers from HD 8 (1.5 t) to HD 14 (4.2 t) follow a new design concept. The engine and cooling unit are no longer installed transversely, as is usually the case, but longitudinally to the direction of travel. This new concept provides unique visibility of the drum edges, which are now directly in the field of view, across the entire line from 1.5 t to 4.2 t. The front frame and the profiled hoods are designed to taper towards the operator. On the HD 8 and HD 10C, the additional offset arrangement of the drums makes the machines extremely maneuverable, even when compacting close to the edges of walls or curbs. The design of the railing on all machines results from its three functions: 1. as a climbing aid, 2. as protection for the vandal-proof „armature shell“ and 3. as a central suspension point during crane loading. All operating functions and displays on the control panel are self-explanatory, intuitive, non verbal and easy to understand. The 3-point articulated joint, used for the first time on this type of roller, ensures the high level of driving comfort, absolute directional stability and extreme tilt resistance of the rollers even on uneven terrain in earthmoving operations.
While HD 8 and HD 10C are predestined for small construction sites thanks to their maneuverability and offset drums, the heavier machine types in the series are ideal for compacting new, porous asphalt materials such as whispering asphalt thanks to their relatively low static line load.
The appearance of the new HD line also follows the basic line design of the rollers from HAMM and ensures a high recognition value in a dense competitive environment through its formal independence.[/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=“1/1″][thb_gap height=“20″][thb_image alignment=“center“ img_size=“large“ image=“2140″][thb_gap height=“10″][vc_column_text]Control panel of the Compact series[/vc_column_text][thb_gap height=“10″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=“1/1″][thb_gap][thb_image alignment=“center“ img_size=“large“ image=“2138″][thb_gap height=“10″][vc_column_text]HD Compact with cabin[/vc_column_text][thb_gap height=“10″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=“1/1″][thb_gap height=“10″][thb_image alignment=“center“ img_size=“large“ image=“2145″][thb_gap height=“0″][vc_column_text][thb_gap height=“10″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=“1/1″][thb_gap height=“10″][thb_image alignment=“center“ img_size=“large“ image=“2144″][thb_gap height=“0″][vc_column_text][thb_gap height=“10″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=“1/1″][thb_gap height=“10″][thb_image alignment=“center“ img_size=“large“ image=“2143″][thb_gap height=“0″][vc_column_text][thb_gap height=“10″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=“1/1″][thb_gap height=“10″][thb_image alignment=“center“ img_size=“large“ image=“2142″][thb_gap height=“0″][vc_column_text][thb_gap height=“10″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=“1/1″][thb_gap height=“10″][thb_image alignment=“center“ img_size=“large“ image=“2141″][thb_gap height=“0″][vc_column_text][thb_gap height=“10″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][vc_column width=“1/3″][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=“2/3″][thb_image alignment=“center“ image=“903″ img_size=“large“][thb_gap height=“10″][vc_column_text]IF Design Award Gold 2007[/vc_column_text][thb_gap height=“10″][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=“1/3″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=“2/3″][thb_image alignment=“center“ image=“905″ img_size=“large“][thb_gap height=“10″][vc_column_text]reddot Design Award 2007[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=“1/3″][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner][thb_gap height=“10″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=“2/3″][thb_image alignment=“center“ image=“899″ img_size=“large“][thb_gap height=“10″][vc_column_text]Design Award of the Federal Republic of Germany 2008 (nominated)[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=“1/3″][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner][thb_gap height=“10″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=“2/3″][thb_image alignment=“center“ image=“929″ img_size=“large“][thb_gap height=“10″][vc_column_text]Eurotest Gütesiegel 2010[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=“1/3″][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner][thb_gap height=“10″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=“1/1″][thb_gap height=“50″][/vc_column][/vc_row]
