How This Calculator Works
This calculator estimates fuel consumption, cost, and CO₂ emissions for different vibratory roller models based on their horsepower, operating hours, and selected fuel type.
Fuel Calculation Formula:
Fuel/Energy Used = Operating Hours × Consumption Rate
CO₂ Emissions = Fuel/Energy Used × Emission Factor
Emission Factors:
- Diesel: 2.68 kg CO₂/liter
- Electric: 0 kg CO₂/kWh (assuming renewable energy)
About Vibratory Rollers
Vibratory rollers are essential compaction machines used in road construction, foundation preparation, and large-scale compaction projects. They apply static weight and vibratory force to achieve high soil and asphalt density.
- Small Vibratory Roller 50 HP: Compact and efficient for small road works and landscaping.
- Medium Vibratory Roller 100 HP: Ideal for municipal roads, asphalt paving, and medium compaction projects.
- Large Vibratory Roller 150 HP: Heavy-duty roller designed for highways, airports, and industrial compaction.
- Electric Vibratory Roller: A sustainable, noise-free option for urban construction zones.
Fuel-Saving Tips:
- Avoid unnecessary idling to save fuel.
- Use the correct vibration frequency for the soil or asphalt type.
- Maintain proper tire and drum pressure for efficient rolling.
- Regularly service the engine and hydraulic systems to improve efficiency.
