Quickly paired, securely connected - the new generation of Bomag's radio remote-controlled BMP 8500 multi-purpose compactor

• Bomag introduces a new generation of the BMP 8500 multi-purpose compactor with an improved radio remote control for enhanced stability and ease of operation.

• The BMP 8500 features a secure and 100% reliable connection between the remote control and the machine, allowing for simultaneous operation of multiple trench rollers on a construction site without interference.

• Designed for demanding work in confined conditions, the BMP 8500 offers a variable working width adjustable from 610 mm to 850 mm, catering to trench and pipeline construction, landscaping, compacting backfill, and foundation work.

• The Bomag BMP 8500 is built for low maintenance and reliable operation, with features like an encased exciter housing to prevent water and dirt ingress and a maintenance-free articulated joint.

• The Bomag Operator Safety System (BOSS) enhances safety by automatically shutting down the machine if it detects the operator is too close, while the Bomag Economizer provides real-time compaction progress updates to optimize efficiency.

When it comes to remote control of the BMP 8500, Bomag once again opts for true radio operation due to its proven superior stability over infrared systems.

With Bomag, there is a 100% connection between the remote control and the machine. Consequently, multiple trench rollers can be operated simultaneously on the construction site without the need to coordinate or adjust the individual radio frequencies.

If the remote control unit goes missing, a new one can easily be paired without special knowledge or tools. After replacement, the remote control and machine are immediately and securely reconnected, allowing compaction work to continue.

Ergonomically shaped joysticks make precise machine control a breeze. The remote also sits securely in the hand.

To ensure minimum downtime during operation, the controller is equipped with two batteries that enable a continuous running time of 35 to 40 hours. The charge status is displayed on the remote control's screen.

With the optionally available charger, the second battery can be topped up while the machine operates. The charger can even be integrated into the trench roller's storage compartment.

Reliable operation

Multi-purpose compactors like the BMP 8500 are specifically designed for demanding work in confined conditions, such as trench and pipeline construction. They are also ideal for landscaping, compacting backfill and direct foundation work. Bomag's new trench roller has a variable working width that can be adjusted from 610 mm to 850 mm in just a few simple steps.

Every component of the BMP 8500 was developed with a focus on low maintenance and dependable operation. Encasing the exciter housing prevents water and dirt from entering, which increases the machine's operational reliability. The trench roller's articulated joint requires no grease nipples, further reducing maintenance requirements.

The integrated Bomag Operator Safety System (BOSS) automatically shuts down the machine if it comes too close to the operator, ensuring outstanding safety.

Bomag Economizer keeps operators updated on compaction progress: soft spots in the fill can be identified immediately, and unnecessary passes can be avoided.
