BOMAG BW90AD-5 STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

The 2018 BOMAG BW90AD-5 is a light tandem vibratory roller optimized for asphalt and soil compaction in medium to small construction projects, including footpaths, repair work, and landscaping. It features hydrostatic articulated steering and vibration drives with front and rear drum vibration, along with the option to lock out either drum's vibration for versatile operation. The machine is powered by a Tier 4 Final Kubota D902 diesel engine delivering 20.2 hp at 3,000 rpm, providing efficient and environmentally compliant power. Weighing approximately 3,527 lbs (1,600 kg) with an operating width of 35.4 inches (899 mm), the roller offers a nominal amplitude of 0.1 inches and a centrifugal force of 3,822 lbs at a vibration frequency of 3,780 VPM, ensuring consistent compaction performance. The drum width enhances mobility in confined spaces, complemented by an oscillating articulation joint allowing an 8-degree oscillating angle and 33-degree steering angle per side for precise maneuverability. The BW90AD-5 includes a 7.9-gallon fuel capacity and a 26.4-gallon water spray system with wind-protected nozzles for drum wetting, critical in asphalt compaction to prevent material sticking. Operator comfort and safety are supported by ROPS (foldable with a height of 7.56 ft), an adjustable seat, ergonomic controls, and comprehensive safety features including SAHR parking brake and emergency stop. Intelligent Vibration Control and BOMAG’s ECONOMIZER system allow precise monitoring and control of compaction quality to avoid under or over-compaction, improving efficiency and result reliability. The model also includes scrapers on each drum, front and rear lights, and a back-up alarm, making it a versatile, reliable solution for quality compaction in diverse construction environments.
