New CASE SV215E & SV217E Vibratory Rollers Increase E Series Compaction Power
CASE is expanding its E Series of compactors with two single-drum vibratory rollers, the SV215E and SV217E, which weigh 32,420 and 36,600 pounds (14,705 and 16,601 kilograms), respectively, and produce centrifugal force up to 73,063 and 74,861 lbs (33,140 and 33,956 kg).
"These new models add compaction power and performance at the higher end of the product line while retaining the versatility and compaction performance of CASE rollers,” says CASE Construction Equipment Product Manager Jeremy Dulak. “We’re helping contractors complete compaction in fewer passes, even on deeper lifts.”
Series Benefits
CASE designed the E Series with a low center of gravity by virtue of a low engine position in combination with an axle-free design, resulting in optimal performance at grades up to 67%. Performance at grade is also improved with CASE’s HX drive propulsion system with automatic traction control; the HX system which is standard on padfoot models and optional on smooth-drum models. CASE says the oscillating articulated roller joint on the E Series ensures consistent drum-to-ground contact, while the updated drum design reduces drift during rotation. Both cab and open rollover protection system (ROPS) versions are available to match the compactors to fleet requirements.
Intelligent Compaction
The new models are both compatible with CASE’s ACE Force Intelligent Compaction (only available on cab-equipped models) that improves compaction quality and generates reports for jobs where contractors need exacting specifications and compaction records. Operators can reference the compactors’ onboard LED screen for performance data, general machine information, and diagnostics. Dual amplitude and dual frequencies let operators fine-tune compaction performance using settings based on the material and depth of lift. The SV215E and SV217E use intelligent technology to reach the desired compaction in fewer passes, reducing wear and tear and increasing productivity.
