Ammann ARX 90.2 vs Volvo DD90: Which One to Buy?

Both are tandem roller compactors built for asphalt work, with different strengths. The Ammann ARX 90.2 climbs steeper slopes, carries a bigger water tank and uses a three-stage water sprinkling system for even compaction. The Volvo DD90 comes with standard telematics and a dual amplitude-frequency vibratory system for consistent compaction on varied surfaces.

If your sites have slopes or need long stretches between water refills, the Ammann ARX 90.2's higher gradeability and bigger tank help you keep working. If you run a fleet and want to track machine location and use from day one, the Volvo DD90's standard telematics is a real plus.
