Because of their ability to achieve compaction depth, vibratory rollers are predominantly used for asphalt compaction. Or, for when fully smooth surfaces need to be created.

Due to their size, smaller vibratory rollers can be used to enable compaction depth on soil in compact spaces.

Construction rollers are used for constructing materials such as soil, asphalt and gravel.

The material can be compacted using static roller compaction to provide surface works, or dynamic roller compaction (vibratory), to provide compaction depth and prepare surfaces for construction. As a result, construction rollers can be used for the construction of roads, railways, airports, buildings, bridges, sports pitches and foot paths.

JCB offers LiveLink Lite as an option for all electric scissors. This provides you with real-time location information, machine battery voltage, and key on/off state along with our suite of standard LiveLink features such as geofencing or operational hour curfews.

Road rollers include different machines under the compact roller umbrella, such as tandem rollers, combination rollers and soil compactors.

JCB's road roller specifications are:

Soil compactors: 7 - 21 ton

Tandem rollers: 1 - 5 ton

Tandem rollers have two smooth steel drums - one in the front and one in the back.This makes them ideal for compacting asphalt and means they can work extremly efficiently. As a result, JCB tandem rollers are designed to compact area, not volume, meaning they can flatten and pave large sections of road quickly.

However, tandem rollers can also be used to compact soil. For example, they can be used to roll sports pitches.

Earth drills are versatile tools, available in a range of sizes and styles tailored for the task at hand. By using a spiral-shaped earth auger drill bit, these tools are used to excavate holes in the ground to support building work. They are essential for the installation of fences, telegraph poles, signs, and planting trees.
