New & Improved Efficient Compaction Key to BOMAG���s New BW211-50 Single-Drum Rollers Fuel-saving ECOMODE gives operators a nice option. BOMAG introduced its new BW211-50 Series single-drum vibratory rollers designed for efficient compaction of granular and cohesive soils. Meeting Tier-4 regulations, the BW211-50 Series consists of the BW211D-50 smooth drum roller and the BW211PD-50 padfoot roller. The machines offer enhanced fuel economy through a 120- horsepower Deutz diesel engine that features ECOMODE, a system that aids the operator in conserving fuel. To ensure that compaction performance is maximized on a variety of soil surfaces dual vibration frequencies and amplitudes are featured with both rollers delivering frequencies of 1,800 and 1,980 vibrations per minute (vpm) across an 84-inch operating width. In addition, the New Double-Edged Samurai Knife Mulching Tool from Fecon A reversible double-edged tool with an innovative shape, Fecon, Inc. introduced the Samurai Knife mulching tool. Designed for faster and smoother cutting and for finer chip size, the new tool, Fecon says, is unlike many planer-type tools that simply chip with a straight edge. The Samurai has a tapered edge that slices as it chips and features a unique splitting element on the body that helps material flow past as it is cut. Together with other geometric advantages, the Samurai delivers as much as 50 percent faster production compared to carbide tools. According to the company, it offers approximately 80-100 hours life per edge with actual results varying based on specific operating conditions.

Maintenance on the BW211-50 Series is simplified by a polymer hood that opens vertically for quick access to the engine, hydraulics and all service points. Steering cylinder pins, travel bearings and a maintenance-free, bolt-on articulation joint eliminate daily grease requirements, while the engine air intake is positioned high on the roller to increase filter life and reduce overall noise levels.

The F1000 pavers are available in both track and wheeled options to appeal to owners, operators and service crews. Machines are equipped with a Cummins QSB 6.7 liter interim Tier-4 engine, providing a direct-flow air cleaner and new technology in the form of Exhaust Gas Recirculation, Diesel Oxidation Catalyst, and Diesel Particulate Filter systems. A high pressure fuel injection system reduces fuel consumption up to 5 percent over earlier engines. Exhaust emissions of particulate matter are reduced by 90 percent, NOx by 45 percent.
