eARX 26-2

Ammann America Inc.

The eARX 26-2 Light Tandem Roller for construction projects. The roller features a fully electric drive that can operate for 18 hours or longer without recharging.

The absence of a combustion engine makes the eARX 26-2 quiet during operation.

Battery Pack

Equipped with a 48-volt battery pack with a capacity of 600 Ah with electric motors for the main drive and vibratory circuits. The pack’s LiFePO4 technology features an internal battery cell that is independently protected.

Machine Charging

The battery can be recharged via the recuperation process during machine operation or with chargers when the machine is not operating.

Performance

The fully electric drive offers the possibility for 100% traction control. Ammann Traction Control (ATC) is able to distribute drive power to the drums without any delays or losses in power transfer. Electric drive motors require more space than hydrostatic motors. Therefore, an innovative approach to vibratory drum design was required.
