Sometimes you don’t need all the bells and whistles to get the job done, and that’s why Dynapac is bringing its new CA30 Rhino series of soil rollers to the North American market.
Available in both smooth drum (CA30D) and padfoot drum (CA30PD) configurations, the 12-ton, 84-inch drum Rhino series rollers offer simplified operation at a lower price point. The models were launched at last week’s ARA Show in Orlando, Florida.
“Dynapac has always sold on its technology, but at the end of the day, a lot of people just need a way to win. ROI is important in this economy,” said Brent Wagner, sales manager, rental channel at Dynapac. “So, what we did is simplified the bells and whistles. We simplified the way to operate the machine. We substantially lowered the cost, and now we’re in line with some of the other manufacturers.”
Historically, Dyanpac has offered four roller models targeted toward the rental industry – the CA1300, CA1400, CA1500 and CA2500 – all of which are manufactured at the company’s factory in Sweden. The CA30 Rhino Series rollers are produced at Dynapac’s factory in India. (Take a walk around the machine in the video below!)
Powered by a 134-horsepower Tier 4 Final Cummins engine, the CA30 Rhino has a four-speed manual transmission and a no-spin rear differential axle to provide traction under any conditions, Dynapac says. The machine offers up to 43% gradeability in the CA30D or up to 53% in the CA30PD.
“It has more horsepower than our CA2500,” Wagner says. “It’s going to be able to perform on the job and climb in and out of where you need to get it.”
