Dynapac Relaunches the CC7000 VI, the Heaviest Asphalt Roller on the Market
According to Equipment Journal, Dynapac is reentering the 15-tonne compaction category with the CC7000 VI, an asphalt roller the company claims is the heaviest in the world at more than 14,500 kg. The machine features a 140 cm drum diameter, a 213 cm compaction width, and is powered by a 154-hp Cummins F3.8 diesel. Dynapac’s patented Seismic Asphalt technology automatically adjusts vibration frequency based on material stiffness in real time.
What It Means for Subcontractors
- Asphalt paving subs working large-scale highway or infrastructure projects now have a heavy-compaction option in this weight class that had been absent from the market.
- The Seismic Asphalt system’s automatic frequency adjustment promises lower operating costs and reduced wear, which matters when calculating total cost of ownership on a new iron purchase.
- The 180-degree rotating operator station and large-capacity water tank are practical uptime features worth evaluating if your crews run long shifts on high-volume paving jobs.
