Luoyang, China – Luoyang Lutong Heavy Industry Machinery Co., Ltd., a seasoned Chinese manufacturer of road compaction machinery, highlights the professional construction value of pairing its double drum vibratory roller and pneumatic tyre roller in hot-mix asphalt paving trains, a proven combination to upgrade pavement compaction quality and construction efficiency for highway, municipal and airport projects worldwide.
The Lutong double drum vibratory roller (tandem roller) adopts full hydraulic dual-drum drive and dual-vibration design with adjustable frequency and amplitude. It undertakes breakdown rolling and initial compaction right after asphalt paving. Vibration energy transmits deep into the asphalt layer to rapidly achieve target core density, flatten the paving mat and eliminate large voids. Equipped with an efficient water sprinkling system, anti-stick scrapers and comfortable air-conditioned cabin, it ensures stable continuous rolling and flat surface formation under high-temperature working conditions.
Complementing the steel drum roller, Lutong pneumatic tyre roller (such as LTP1016H) applies a unique kneading compaction effect through flexible overlapping rubber tyres. Unlike vibratory steel drums, its rubber tyres deform slightly under load, squeeze and rearrange asphalt aggregates gently, closing tiny surface voids left by vibration rolling, improving surface sealing, lowering water permeability and reducing later cracking and rutting risks. The adjustable ballast design allows flexible weight tuning from 10 to 16 tons to match different asphalt formulas and layer thickness requirements.
In standard working procedure, the double drum vibratory roller completes breakdown rolling first; then the pneumatic tyre roller carries out intermediate kneading compaction; finally the double drum roller finishes the finishing pass. This matched rolling sequence avoids the common defects of over-vibration or insufficient sealing when using only one type of roller. Contractors can gain consistent density, excellent smoothness and extended pavement service life.
All Lutong compaction machines are equipped with reliable power units, easy-access maintenance layout and CE certification. The matched roller package has been widely adopted by overseas clients across Southeast Asia, Central Asia, South America and the Middle East. Luoyang Lutong keeps supplying integrated compaction equipment solutions tailored to local road specifications, together with global after-sales support.
Luoyang Lutong will continue to optimize its roller product lineup and construction application guidance, helping international road builders achieve high-standard, cost-effective asphalt pavement construction.
