automatically optimise compaction power to
the prevailing soil conditions. The measuring
and control variable is soil stiffness, shown
as E
VIB
in MN/m
2
.

cut costs.
Handing you the competitive advantage!
VARIOCONTROL shows the innovative force of BOMAG.
Smooth and pad foot roller drums
Smooth drums are used for non-cohesive
and mixed soils. Fine-grain materials are
best compacted using the kneading and mil-
ling effect of pad foot drums.
100% increase with polygonal
drums
The sometimes poor depth effect of smooth
drum rollers is eliminated with the successi-
ve action of wedge and plate when rolling
with the polygonal drum. This process incre-
ases the depth effect so as to allow up to
100% layer thickness increases. Polygonal
drums are suitable for most soil types
cohesive and non-cohesive.
Compaction of rockfill
Rockfill is used on many on large scale con-
struction sites where mobile crushing plants
are typically used. Costs are considerable
and can be avoided altogether with the use of
single drum rollers fitted with a rock crus-
hing drum. The application range extends to
all materials up to 100 MN/m
2
compression
strength.
Powerful circular exciter
Single drum rollers with circular exciters
have 2 amplitudes and fixed frequencies.
Manual control is performed at the operators
platform. High amplitude is used for thick
layers and low for surface compaction and
thin fill layers.
BOMAG VARIOCONTROL (BVC)
The fast, progressive and automatic adjust-
ment of compaction power with VARIOCON-
TROL guarantees maximum compaction per-
formance with each pass until the level of
soil stiffness (E
VIB
) preset by the roller driver
is achieved. Six amplitudes can be preset
when compacting close to buildings to limit
the vibration risk. The advantages of VARIO-
CONTROL are:
High compaction output with high, static
linear loads and amplitudes of up to 2.5
mm
Permanent display of soil stiffness achie-
ved in E
VIB
/ MN/m
2
Unnecessary passes avoided: compaction
complete is signalled to the operator
No over-compaction
No drum bounce: less wear on all compo-
nents
Soft spots are quickly identified and fol-
low-up compaction carried immediately
Uniform bearing capacity increases the
service life of roads and structures.

Even on difficult soils BOMAG has the answers such as
this BW 213 DI-4 BVC with towed plates.
Maximum gradeability: all angles covered !
Get to the top with ASC!
The demand for high gradeability on waste
disposal sites and earthworks has grown
continuously over the last few years. For
these jobs rollers in the DH-4/DHC-4/PDH-
4/PDHC-4 series are equipped as standard
with ANTI-SLIP-CONTROL (ASC). This
system constantly monitors the speed of the
drum and wheels. If one starts to spin, the oil
flow to relevant motor is automatically redu-
ced. Slip is minimised, the roller remains
under control and the maximum torque is
delivered to the soil surface. This means that
gradients of up to 60% can be climbed under
true site conditions.

Large fuel filter protects the state-of-the-art engine
Centralised electrics: an example of BOMAGs outstan-
ding production quality.
Our Less is More service cost-cutting approach
Maximum productivity on site is only possi-
ble with high reliability and sound technolo-
gy under all kinds of operating conditions.
BOMAG addresses these requirements with
uncompromising component and parts
supply and intelligent roller design.
Roller design:
Hydraulic and drive technology only from
renowned suppliers
Reinforced hydraulic hoses with superior
wear resistance
All wiring harnesses cased to avoid
mechanical damage
Electronic monitoring of functions and
components prevents downtime and
repairs
Efficient cooling taking in fresh air where it
is cleanest, i.e. above the machine. Exhaust
air blows out above the rear of the machi-
ne to minimise dust.
Extra-large filters for air, engine oil and
hydraulic oil protects the drive system
Two fuel filters as standard (one fitted with
a water separator) protect the state-of-the-
art diesel engines
Clearly arranged on-board electrics with
numbered cables and routing of central
electrics direct to components.
All BOMAG rollers have been designed so
that the time and cost of servicing are kept to
a minimum.
All models have maintenance-free compo-
nents which means total elimination of lubri-
cating nipples. The roller driver only needs to
check the engine oil level in the morning and
hes ready to drive off (BOMAGs Less is
More concept). Also if drivers are frequent-
ly changed, there is no risk of downtime due
to service work being carried out. The capa-
bility of these rollers to work to capacity is
maintained at the highest level.
When servicing and maintenance is needed
on filters, the mechanic has an easy job due
to the clever arrangement of the assemblies.
After opening the easy access engine hood,
all filters, oil and fuel tanks and outlet ope-
nings are reached comfortably and safely
from the ground.
The Less is More philosphy:
All models with operating weights up to
16 t have no lubricating nipples: the articu-
lated joint, steering cylinder and travel bea-
rings are maintenance-free and life-time
lubricated. The driver needs only to check
the engine oil level that takes just a few
seconds.
Long service intervals: e.g. hydraulic oil is
changed only every 2000 operating hours
or every 2 years
Faster access to all servicing and mainte-
nance points in the engine compartment
and the drum
Easy access outlet openings for engine,
hydraulic oil and coolant
Individually exchangeable rubber buffers
Everything in the engine compartment is to hand after
opening the hood.
Deluxe swivel seat (+/-20) with textile cover for rollers
with cab.
Dashboard on models D-4/DHC-4/PD-4 and PDHC-4
with off-centre steering wheel and circular gauge.
Dashboard on BVC rollers with mini steering wheel and
LCD.
The driver's view behind the roller and over the wheels
is superb.
The cab: room for the highest performance
The effectiveness with which the roller is
used is dependent on the roller driver. Its not
just ergonomics and comfort but also how
quickly the operator becomes accustomed to
operating the machine. This is particularly
important nowadays as drivers change so
frequently. Only after this will the roller be
used efficiently and economically.
Ergonomics, comfort and ease of
operation
All controls are integrated logically around
the dashboard and the multi-functional arm-
rest on the seat.
All information relating to the operation of
the roller and which is important to the dri-
ver is displayed clearly on the circular gauge
or glare-free LCD.
The seat has multiple adjustment options
and stays comfortable during long shifts.
Steering is smooth and ergonomically loca-
ted off-centre .
All rollers with BOMAG VARIOCONTROL
are equipped with a swivel/sliding seat and
integrated mini steering wheel: the operator
has best access to the steering controls and
the full control system at any time and from
any seat position.
Full vibration insulation of the operators
platform
BOMAG: no compromises on safety
ROPS cab or alternatively ROPS/FOPS
with seat belt
Powerful working lighting for good vision
even in bad visibility
Clear all-round view around the roller
(complies with 1m x 1m rule)
Seat contact switch
Emergency stop switch with automatic
operation of spring accumulator brakes
Standard reversing alarm
All models comply with the 1m x 1m rule. This ensures the safest all-round view of the machine and site.

This technology is now also available for
BOMAG rollers with standard vibration
systems. The BOMAG E
VIB
Meter (BEM), for
example, shows the E
VIB
value achieved on
the circular gauge in the cab. Using the
BOMAG Terrameter Plus (BTM plus), diffe-
rent passes are compared with each other
and the driver signalled in red when the tar-
get or maximum degree of compaction has
been achieved. In the next equipment stage,
the BTM prof, the bearing capacity E
VIB
in
MN/m

can be documented with the printer
onto a paper strip. If larger areas are to be
documented, the BOMAG Compaction
Management System BCM 05 is the prefer-
red choice and can be combined with GPS
(BCM 05 positioning).
All VARIOCONTROL single drum rollers are
equipped as standard with BOMAG
