Tandem
rollers are another important variety of rollers that has their utility
in soil and asphalt compaction, construction and repair on small to
medium jobs on highways. Apart from repairs and patching, it is also
ideal for smaller town works like compacting pavements, drive ways,
cycle paths, parking lots etc. The medium and large tandem roller is
utilized for compaction of major roads, streets, industrial sites and
airfields. Some of the tandem rollers are also provided with thick steel
plate enclosures, lined with sound-absorbing materials for noise
prevention. An automatic vibration braking system eliminates drum bounce
and avoids ripples.
