AMMANN ARX 91 Articulated Tandem Roller passes tough test
Indian contractor Prakash Asphalting & Toll Highways India tested an AMMANN ARX 91 Articulated Tandem Roller on a jobsite and was extremely pleased with the results. “The AMMANN ARX 91 was able to achieve the desired compaction at our jobsite in fewer passes, which resulted in overall savings in fuel/diesel costs,” said Anurag Surana, the company’s General Manager – Mechanical. According to him, the ARX 91 was 5 to 8% more fuel-efficient than other products in the segment.
Surana added that the operators were also pleased with the AMMANN compactor: “Our operator was very comfortable driving the ARX 91, as it has excellent visibility of the front and rear drums till the edge, even while compacting closer to the edges. All the controls are conveniently located on the operator platform, giving operator comfort with zero fatigue, and thereby allowing the operator to work longer hours at a stretch.” The ease of access to service points and AMMANN’s support drew special praise.
Stated Surana, “We would seriously consider procuring the AMMANN Articulated Tandem Roller Model ARX 91 in the future for our fleet.”
