The difference between walk-behind rollers and ride-on rollers
The road roller is a kind of road compaction machine. According to the pavement medium and engineering needs, the road roller with different structures and configurations is adopted. Since the early 20th century, the road roller has undergone great changes in appearance, structure, configuration, performance, and operation mode. It has played a huge role in infrastructure construction around the world and has also played an important role in urban road maintenance.
There are obvious differences between walk-behind road rollers and ride-on road rollers in terms of appearance, configuration, and operation mode. In terms of the weight of the whole machine, the walk-behind road roller represented by the 0.3-ton road roller is positioned as a micro-compacting machine. According to its small and flexible Structural features, it is often used for backfilling of narrow trenches, or the edge compaction of manhole covers and oil surfaces of road teeth. With the help of a hydraulic system, the single-drum vibratory roller operated by hand is more flexible and light to operate. , can basically achieve in-situ turns.
Ride-on road rollers represented by 0.7-ton double-drum road rollers are also positioned in the category of miniature road rollers. The appearance and structure are more different from walk-behind road rollers. All can be involved. For example, the 2.5-ton single-drum vibratory road roller is operated by a ride-on type. The rollers beyond the scope of manpower are mainly ride-on types. With the popularization of big data and artificial intelligence, remote control, and remote unmanned driving The road roller has also been successfully developed.
Whether it is a walk-behind road roller or a ride-on road roller, the compaction operation is carried out by manual operation. With the advancement of science and technology, remote-control compaction in a line-of-sight environment and visual operation in remote conditions have begun to operate in some high-risk operating environments. In addition to the standard steel wheels, the optional horn mill can be used to enhance the compaction of the matching pavement medium.
