CB16

OVERVIEW

The CB16 asphalt compactor offers enhancements that simplify operation, provide versatility, and deliver excellent fuel economy. Rotary dials, oscillatory vibration, and 360 degreeseating make this compactor a perfect match for urban streets, rural roads, highways, interstates and other high-production applications.

BENEFITS

Simple to Operate, Easy to Learn

Innovative hand-wheel steering technology delivers precise control and good forward visibilityEasily activate the vibratory system, water spray system, and drum offset with the multi-function propel handleMachine functions with LED indicators have been independently grouped for simplified control and quick activationDual side access on ROPS/Canopy machines provide operators with flexibility to mount and dismount the machine (U.S. and Canada only)

Better Fuel Economy

Get up to 10% better fuel economy with the Cat C4.4 engine and standard Eco-modeThe C4.4 engine provides 106 kW (142 hp) of power and meets regional emissions requirementsUnique Eco-mode design modifies engine speed based on load requirements; high amplitude vibration utilizes higher engine speed, while static rolling conserves fuel and operates at low engine speed with even lower sound levels

Easy Vibratory System Set-up

Five amplitude system utilizes a single frequency with five distinct amplitudes that provide excellent performance on thick lifts and rigid mix designsVersa Vibe™ vibratory system creates a 2-in-1 machine with four amplitudes and two frequencies; two settings for lighter hitting and higher working speeds on thin lifts; and two settings for heavier hitting and slower speeds on thick lifts and challenging mix designs2-amplitude/2-frequency vibratory system automatically optimizes amplitude and frequency with a single switch for simple thin/thick lift operationReach compaction goals with automatic speed control; green indicators help ensure travel speed matches correct impact spacing

Compaction Options Include Oscillation

Oscillatory vibration on the rear drum combined with standard vertical vibration front drum delivers both performance and versatilityOscillation system utilizes proven pod-style eccentric weight technology developed by Caterpillar2 year/2000 hour service interval helps maximize uptime and limit maintenance costs.Durable power-transmission belt delivers 2-times the load capacity of timing belt systems leading to extended lifeStandard drum shells offer exceptional long-term life on a variety of mix designs and delivers outstanding mat texture, density, and smoothness.

Ensure Mat Coverage with Compaction Control

Pass-count and Temperature Mapping combines infrared temperature sensors with GPS mapping to keep the operator informed of current asphalt temperatures, machine position, pass-count, and layer coverageCompaction Meter Value (CMV) utilizes a drum-mounted accelerometer to measure the combined stiffness of the asphalt layer, base layer, and sub-base layer to indicate road structure quality beneath the surfaceMachine to Machine communication helps keep rolling patterns in sync by sharing mapped data such as CMV, temperature mapping, and pass count coverage between multiple machines

Prevent Build-Up, Keep the Drum Surfaces Wet

High capacity water tank provides long duration between fillsDual water pumps provide back-up capability and alternate with direction of travel to maximize service lifeTriple filtration prevents clogs with filters located at the fill point, water pumps, and spray nozzlesIntegrated freeze protection kit (optional) provides protection in cold temperatures when machine is not in use

Boost Performance with Enhanced Visibility

Optimize sight lines with 360  seating option; always face the direction of travelLED Lighting delivers excellent job site illumination while conserving energyNight-lighting option provides additional illumination to the ROPS/Cab, drum edges, and drum surfaces
