The ARS 30 and ARS 50 are aimed at road construction firms and rental fleets that need small, durable and powerful machines. The rollers can compact a wide range of materials and have the option of smooth or padfoot drums. The ARS 30 and ARS 50 are powered by Kubota V2403-CR-T diesel engines with EGR+DOC+DPF (without SCR) after-treatment technology and rated at 43.2kW, meeting the Tier 4 Final Stage V emissions requirements.

A combination of an efficient engine, hydrostatic drive system and control deliver economical fuel consumption of 5litres/hour. That efficiency and a large fuel tank of 98litres mean that the rollers need only be fuelled once every three working shifts

The ARS 30 drum has a working width of 1200mm. The single-stage vibratory system and two different frequencies supply compaction power of 37kN and 68kN. The working width of the ARS 50 is 1400mm with a boosted single-stage vibratory system with two frequencies. It provides compaction power of 53kN and 85kN.

A smooth drum is standard on both machines. The ARS 30 has a drum thickness of 15mm, while the ARS 50 drum is 18mm thick. To improve versatility and profitability, the rollers are available with a padfoot (PD) drum (with a smooth shell kit) and a dozer blade.

The drums are designed to be maintenance-free as part of Ammann’s ECOdrop philosophy. The innovative no-rear-axle concept makes the rollers compact and allows a low engine location that improves the centre of gravity for stability.

Also available is the ACEforce system, which enables operators to monitor compaction progress. The Intelligent Compaction system shows the actual kB value on the display, significantly reducing the time required to achieve maximum compaction.

An optional telematics system can help monitor the machine’s position, assist with control and provide other important jobsite information. All the data can be monitored via the web.
