This Bomag BW161ADO-5 is a used drum compactor — sometimes referred to as a vibratory roller — offered from Maine, USA, at $166,500. Drum compactors are used in road construction and civil engineering to compress asphalt, granular materials, and soil, delivering a dense, stable surface through the combined weight and dynamic action of their drums. Bomag is a well-established manufacturer of compaction and road-building equipment, serving the construction, road maintenance, and earthworks industries worldwide.
According to the seller, this machine is described as a new unit. It is configured with front drum vibration and rear drum oscillation, a dual-mode setup in which the front drum uses traditional vibratory action to compact material and the rear drum employs oscillatory motion — a technique that imparts horizontal shear forces rather than vertical impacts, making it particularly well suited for compacting over sensitive structures or bridge decks where impact forces need to be minimised. This combination of vibration on the front and oscillation on the rear gives the machine versatility across a range of compaction tasks and surface conditions.
The unit was built in 2023 and is listed in used condition.
