This Hamm DV85VV is a used drum compactor — sometimes referred to as a tandem roller or double drum roller — a type of road-building machine designed to compact asphalt and other paving materials by passing heavy vibrating drums over the surface. Hamm is a well-established German manufacturer with a long history in road construction equipment, producing compactors and rollers used extensively by road-building contractors and civil engineering firms worldwide.
This particular machine is configured as a tandem unit, meaning it carries both a front drum and a rear drum, and crucially both drums are fitted with vibration systems. The vibration operates at two selectable frequencies, giving the operator control over compaction force to suit different materials and layer thicknesses. All-drum drive is fitted, meaning both drums deliver tractive effort, which improves performance on gradients and in demanding site conditions.
The machine features crab steering, also known as offset or crab-walk capability, which allows the rear drum to track offset from the front. This is particularly useful for compacting close to kerbs, edges, and obstacles without the machine body overhanging them. The maximum working width is stated at 2,990 mm.
The operator environment is a ROPS-rated panoramic cabin, providing rollover protection alongside excellent all-round visibility — a practical combination for safe, precise work on live road surfaces. The machine is powered by a Deutz diesel engine, a recognised brand in industrial and construction machinery.
Additional equipment includes a KSG hydraulic edge cutting and pressing tool, which allows precise compaction and trimming work right to the edge of a paved surface. The machine is also hydraulically prepared for a chipping spreader, meaning the necessary hydraulic connections are already installed should a spreader be added. The machine is presented in its original factory colour and is located in Germany.
