Rolling Dynamic Compaction
Broons launched their revolutionary patented BH-1300 "Square" Impact Roller onto the world market in the mid-1980s quickly developing an international reputation as specialists in the application and operation of rolling dynamic compaction equipment.
The "Square" impact module imparts a massive 50kJ to 100kJ kinetic energy, or more* with every blow. Even today, no alternative compaction equipment comes close to the Broons Impact Roller on performance, productivity and price.
Broons' experience in dynamic compaction using their "Square" Impact Roller is unequalled anywhere around the globe and has been used by Civil Engineering Contractors, Property Developers, Mining Companies, State, Local and Federal Government Road Agencies, Forestry, Cotton and Rice Growers.
In the mining industry, their enormous BH-1950MS has revolutionised the way to reduce tyre damage and ultimately consumption of these expensive tyres.
*Subject to module mass and width, ground conditions etc.
