Reliable operation
Multi-purpose compactors like the BMP 8500 are specifically designed for demanding work in confined conditions, such as trench and pipeline construction. They are also ideal for landscaping, compacting backfill and direct foundation work. BOMAG’s new trench roller has a variable working width that can be adjusted from 610 mm to 850 mm in just a few simple steps.
Every component of the BMP 8500 was developed with a focus on low maintenance and dependable operation. Encasing the exciter housing prevents water and dirt from entering, which increases the machine’s operational reliability. The trench roller’s articulated joint requires no grease nipples, further reducing maintenance requirements.
The integrated BOMAG Operator Safety System (BOSS) automatically shuts down the machine if it comes too close to the operator, ensuring outstanding safety. BOMAG ECONOMIZER keeps operators updated on compaction progress: soft spots in the fill can be identified immediately, and unnecessary passes can be avoided.
