Key components such as the Navigator display, GNSS receiver with modem, Intelligent node, Quick change display mount, and Vibration sensors are highlighted and labeled. This technology is now available from Völkel.

How does the Völkel system work on earthworks?

Utilising the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) and Völkel vibration sensors. The system measures the vertical acceleration of the drum and provides a real-time depiction of the number of passes, soil rigidity and machine position.

The measurement results are then displayed on the Navigator display unit, showing the operator the current level of compaction including geo reference points.

Völkel data gives you a complete view of compaction levels achieved across the project and is recorded at each pass.

How will Völkel intelligent compaction benefit you?

Völkel navigator is a modular system for the requirements of digital road construction that bundles together all solutions for compaction measurement and documentation into one system. The modular system offers suitable components for all roller types and is available for all current tandem rollers, compactors, and pneumatic tyre rollers.

All modules combine to give the operator more information throughout the compaction process, resulting in better work.

How does the Völkel system work on asphalt?

Völkel uses an Asphalt temperature sensors to define the temperature of the asphalt, shows you the number of passes, temperature. and machine position in real time with geo reference points.

The temperature is shown on the Navigator display unit for operator control and can be used on all tandem and pneumatic tyre rollers.
