WHATS NEXT IN VIBRATORY ROLLERS{

NEW IMPROVEMENTS FOR VIBRATORY ROLLERS ARE DISCUSSED. VARIABLE AMPLITUDE DEVICES ARE FITTED TO LARGER TANDEM ROLLERS MAKING IT POSSIBLE FOR THE OPERATOR TO ALTER THE AMPLITUDE SET IN SECONDS SO THAT THE MACHINE CAN BE ADJUSTED TO THE APPLICATION. THE 3-ROLL MACHINE, WHICH AS THE ROLLS ONE BEHIND THE OTHER IS SAID TO EVEN OUT IRREGULARITIES IN GRADE BY BRINGING WEIGHT TO BEAR ON A SINGLE ROLL. THE TREND , PARTICULARLY IN TRAILER-TYPE ROLLERS, IS TOWARDS LARGER PLANT. SINCE TRANSPORTATION PROBLEMS LIMIT DEVELOPMENT OF LARGER VIBRATORY ROLLERS, THE TREND TOWARD THE USE OF MULTIPLE TOWED UNITS IS INDICATED.
