A soil compactor includes at least one compactor roller, which is free to rotate about an axis of rotation of the roller, with a plurality of roller segments, which follow one another along the direction of the axis of rotation of the roller. In each case, at least one electromotive drive for producing an oscillating torque is assigned to each roller segment.

A soil processing machine includes a machine frame with two longitudinal beams substantially extending in the longitudinal direction of the machine and two transverse beams substantially extending transverse to the longitudinal beams. A soil-processing roller is supported in the longitudinal direction between the transverse beams on the longitudinal beams so that it can rotate about an axis of rotation of the roller. A coupling arrangement is provided on the machine frame for attaching the machine frame to a further machine frame of the soil-processing machine or to a further machine. A lifting/supporting arrangement is provided on the machine frame for lifting and/or supporting the machine frame in relation to the ground. One of the transverse beams is supported on the two longitudinal beams so that it can rotate about a swivel axis substantially parallel to an axis of rotation of the roller.

A method includes performing, with a compacting machine, a first pass to compact a first portion of a work area to compact a first lane. A guidance system acquires position information representing the first compacted lane. A second pass is performed to compact a second portion of the work area adjacent the first portion. The guidance system acquires current position information of the machine representing current positioning of the machine during the second pass. Comparing the position information of the machine representing the first compacted lane with the current position information, determines whether the current positioning overlaps the first compacted lane a specified amount. When the second pass is determined to overlap the first compacted lane, in-compliance visual indicia is generated. When the second pass is determined to not overlap the first compacted lane with the specified amount, out of compliance visual indicia is generated.

The present invention relates to a compacting roller (1) comprising a roller drum arrangement (3) comprising a first roller drum (9) and a second roller drum (11) arranged next to each other, a drive arrangement (13) comprising a first drive unit (15) arranged to rotate said first roller drum (9) and a second drive unit arranged to rotate said second roller drum (11), and a power supply (39). The compacting roller by further comprises a frame (5) which is connected to said roller drum arrangement (3), wherein said power supply (39) is attached to said frame (5) outside each of the first roller drum (9) and the second roller drum (11), and an electronic balancing system (43) for maintaining the compacting roller (1) in an upright position during operation.

Systems and methods determine a current production rate of a piece of equipment processing first paving material at a worksite, receive first information indicative of an amount of power within a battery of the piece of equipment, receive second information indicative of a characteristic of the worksite, and determine predicted production rate of the piece of equipment to process second paving material at the worksite. The systems and methods further determine an amount of power required by the piece of equipment to process the second paving material at the worksite and determine that the amount of power within the battery of the piece of equipment is insufficient for the amount of power required by the piece of equipment to process the second paving material at the worksite.
