Alexander Dyknich,
Development Constructor BOMAG
The collaboration between BOMAG and ttv began in 2001, and has been continually developing with great success ever since. these days, ttv provides the company with a wide range of products ranging from O-rings, V-rings, cassette seals, shaft sealing rings and mechanical face seals right through to end caps.
It was ttv’s high level of flexibility and customer orientation that lead to it becoming an important supplier for BOMAG, and these two attributes have been harmoniously covered by the “Engineering Solutions” department.
Key revenue drivers for ttv are the mechanical face seals, the cassette seals and the shaft sealing rings, which are often tailored to specific customer requirements and usage areas. These can be technically complex in nature, but in a recent case with BOMAG, a solution has simply been designed to make it easier to install large mechanical face seals.
The best example of the company’s innovative strength comes in the form of the milling rotor on the new stabiliser/recycler RS 500, which Bomag presented at INTERMAT 2018. In order to ensure safe working on slopes, the milling and mixing rotor can be slid out beyond the edge of the tyre on both the left and right-hand sides. The drive wheels can remain on more stable ground. This innovation means that a machine of this type can mill right up to the edge of the slope with no major risk for the very first time.
