Simply put, the DD128C is the most productive machine in its class. The ultra-high frequency of 4800vpm is the highest in the industry, offering the fastest possible rolling speeds while still maintaining optimum impact spacing. The patent-pending Ultra-Pac technology automatically sets the highest possible vibration frequency according to the selected amplitude, further optimizing performance and efficiency.
The DD128C offers the widest drum amplitude range from 0.003” up to 0.030”, letting you take on a wide range of applications, whether working with thick or thin layers. The double drum compactor features eight different amplitude settings with five unique frequencies; including new low amplitude settings for improved productivity on ultra-thin lifts and other applications where static rolling and oscillation are used.
The unique Volvo eight amplitude drum design enables auto-reversing eccentric rotation, which matches eccentric weight rotation with machine travel direction. The result is optimum smoothness, even with tender mixes, providing a level of control over the compaction process not possible with traditional two amplitude machines.
Optimize water use with the automatic spraying system, which provides variable flow proportional to machine speed, delivering consistent drum coverage and preventing material pick-up. The system also features a ‘pre-wet’ function which sprays both drums using primary and back-up spray bars for two full drum rotations (or 10 seconds). With the industry-leading fully redundant water system, operators can concentrate on rolling knowing a completely separate water system is available if needed.
Powered by the highly efficient Volvo 110 kW T4f engine, the DD128C has been designed to operate at a lower engine speed, minimizing both noise levels and fuel consumption. Fuel consumption can be further reduced by the engine’s auto-idle and auto-shutdown features. Automatic regeneration requires no operator intervention.
Achieve higher quality compaction, in less time and with less effort thanks to the real-time information Compact Assist (option) provides operators. Using the 10” Volvo Co-Pilot, operators can confidently monitor the progress of their work, and eliminate under-compaction and over-compaction.
Includes Pass count mapping, Temperature mapping and makes it simple to upgrade to Compact Assist or Compact Assist with Density Direct in the future.
This package includes the functions from Compact Assist Start, plus high accuracy location, data recording and Real Time Kinematic (RTK) compatibility, offering millimeter-precision location accuracy.
Includes all functions from Compact Assist package, plus compaction measurement, including Compaction Measurement Value (CMV) mapping and Density Direct mapping. Local, state, and federal requirements as well as specific job specifications vary greatly. Please verify that the selected package will meet your IC requirements.
Your machine will come factory fitted with the necessary wiring needed to easily upgrade your machine to add Intelligent Compaction packages in the field.
Operators will feel right at home with the intuitive and ergonomically positioned controls, including the new electronic Propulsion Control Lever. The automatic impact spacing control further enhances ease of operation. With the cruise control function operators can set a desired working speed, boosting productivity, consistency and operator comfort.
Enjoy the ultimate in operator comfort thanks to the 5-position console which rotates 180°, new fully-adjustable reclining seat, USB ports on the console and weatherproof manual storage case. Noise and vibration isolation further add to the outstanding comfort levels.
Operators benefit from unobstructed visibility all around the machine, including a clear view of the spray bars, nozzles and clear sight of the drum edges. The drum edge view is also enhanced due to the adjustable and reclining seat. The result is a confident, safer and higher quality machine operation.
Features including the ROPS/FOPS certified platform, seat belt alarm, operator presence switch and brake test functionality all contribute towards enhanced safety for the operator and others on the jobsite.
Roll with precision day or night with a range of lighting packages available, offering increased visibility, safety and convenience. LED lights consume less power and are longer-lasting for an efficient and durable solution in low-light conditions.
When it comes to servicing, the DD128C keeps things simple, ensuring maximum uptime. The full width engine hood swings up and is held open by powerful gas springs to provide unobstructed access to all engine and hydraulic components, combined with a single access key to service hatches. Fuses and relays are grouped inside a sealed, lockable compartment for improved reliability and serviceability. Both water tanks are separately filled from ground level.
