Compaction Control For Asphalt Compactors

Trimble CCS900 and CCSFlex™ Compaction Control Systems help you roll a more uniform surface and increase your efficiency. They offer:

A FULL-COLOR GRAPHICAL DISPLAY

• View compaction progress, pass counts and mat temperature information on an easy-to-use color display

FLEXIBILITY TO FIT YOUR NEEDS

• Monitor pass counts only or pass counts plus temperature
• Add temperature sensors or precision accuracy
• Document compaction operations on site with an optional in-cab printer

RELIABILITY OF THE TRIMBLE PAVING WORKFLOW

• Use one workflow from the initial design model to the last pass of the compactor
• Leverage on-machine components for milling, asphalt paving and compaction
• Monitor and analyze compaction efficiency from the office.

WHAT SYSTEM DO YOU NEED?

MONITORING & ANALYSIS

Supervisors and quality managers can monitor compaction activities using the optional in-cab printer or the web-based VisionLink fleet, asset and productivity solution from Trimble.

VisionLink can be used to:

• Continuously monitor pass counts and compaction meter values over the entire area and on all material layers
• Improve testing success, reduce rework and lower ongoing maintenance costs
• Reduce over-compaction to optimize fuel use and machine time
• Ensure uniform lift, consistent pass counts and target compaction meter values to increase the surface quality and operational life
• Monitor temperature maps to ensure compaction to the specified temperature range

EASY CCSFLEX

The Trimble CCSFlex Compaction Control System is a reliable and affordable option to leverage compaction control technology and help you be more competitive. The easy-to-use CCSFlex “system in a case” provides accurate pass count mapping without a GPS base station and without a 3D design.

The CCSFlex system offers many features and benefits to the paving contractor:

• Facilitates optimal compaction by displaying pass count information to the operator in real-time
• Easy to install in a couple of hours
• Portability makes it ideal for rented compactors
• Flexibility allows you to move the system between compactors
• Works on any asphalt compactor with open or enclosed cab

As a more cost-conscious entry-level configuration, CCSFlex helps you work more efficiently and create a better surface without investing in the full-featured system. You can always upgrade later with additional temperature sensors, precision GNSS corrections, or a larger display screen.

ROBUST CCS900

The Trimble CCS900 Compaction Control System is the premium system for improving asphalt compaction operations and rolling a more efficient surface.

Trimble CCS900 offers several advantages to improve your compaction efficiency:

• Pass count mapping allows you to monitor the number of passes over an area and adjust your effort to avoid over or under-compaction
• Wireless data share allows each compactor to see the work being done by other compactors in real-time, so operators know which areas have been compacted and which areas still need to be completed. Operators can achieve more consistent compaction while also reducing the amount of under- and over-compacted areas to improve surface quality, and save time and fuel.
• The wiring harness and brackets are permanently installed for optimal fit and integration with the machine body
• Connected Site® Ready, so with your existing components you can begin transferring compaction data to the office for analysis in VisionLink®
• Install on any asphalt compactor with open or enclosed cab

The full-featured Trimble CCS900 Compaction Control System is available in three cab-mounted configurations:

• Single GNSS (MS992 or MS972 Smart GNSS Antenna)
• Dual GNSS (MS992 or MS972 Smart GNSS Antenna)
• Total station-based with the MT900 Machine Target

In-cab components include the Trimble CB460 or CB450 Control Box and an optional in-cab printer for on-site documentation and sign-off purposes.
