BW 174 ACP-5 AM: Pivot-steered tandem roller. For the road construction of today and tomorrow.

All functions of the tandem roller can now be preset on the individually configurable, high-resolution, 10-inch touchscreen.
The menu navigation is very simple. All settings are easy to grasp and are visualised in a clear and self-explanatory way.

The exact positioning of the individual switches is no coincidence and is based on a precise analysis. The functions used particularly often in everyday work are positioned as close as possible.
Every important function is within easy reach. No one has to stretch much in a tandem roller with myCOCKPIT.

For the very best visibility, optional heated and electrically adjustable front side mirrors, four additional mirrors (on cab and rear frame) and various camera systems (passive & active) are available.

Машины BW 154 AP-5 и BW 174 AP-5 получили знак качества AGR от ассоциации Aktion Gesunder Rücken e.V. (ассоциации, занимающейся профилактикой и лечением заболеваний позвоночника). Это первые строительные машины, которые были удостоены такого знака.
Модели были удостоены знака качества AGR в целом, независимо от выбранной комплектации. Выбирая эти модели для своей стройплощадки, Вы тем самым заботитесь о здоровье операторов.

Оптимальное расположение элементов управления и индивидуальные возможности регулировки позволяют каждому оператору занять в кресле ровное и удобное положение.
Подрессоренное сиденье можно отрегулировать в соответствии с весом водителя, а виброгасящие опоры, на которые установлена кабина, позволяют уменьшить количество толчков и вибраций.

Machines equipped with the optionally available light package also have the so-called "follow-me-home" function.
In this case, the two spotlights on the front side of the cab remain active for a short time after the machine has been switched off and light the way for the driver across the construction site.

The edge cutter of the tandem roller can be changed very quickly. Only three screws need to be loosened or tightened.
And if the machine is to be operated with a chip spreader, this is also very quickly ready for use. All connections can be easily reached from the side.

The windows on the new generation of BOMAG rollers are particularly large and extend very far downwards at the same time.
The roller driver can see the edge of the drum from the side seating position with the window closed. This provides an excellent overview—a factor that increases safety on the construction site around the roller.

By means of an optionally available monitor, which is positioned at the top rear of the cab, the roller operator can keep an eye on all compaction parameters even when reversing.

Whether bearing, binder or surface course, easily compactable material or difficult to compact materials such as chip mastic or low-temperature asphalts—the amplitude automatically adapts to the compaction degree already achieved.
Unnecessary passes or even jump operation are avoided. Thanks to the integrated EVIB measuring values, the compaction progress is always transparent for the driver.

The spray system keeps the drum moist, preventing hot asphalt from sticking to it. For road quality and on-site reliability, it’s crucial that the sprinkler nozzles do not become clogged.
While conventional systems rely on an additional filter, BOMAG's innovative, specially shaped nozzle interior minimises dirt build-up. The chamber design creates a swirl effect that flushes out residues.
BOMAG rollers in the AP-5 series have been fitted with the system as standard since autumn 2025. Older machines can be retrofitted.

The drum surface visibility is also outstanding. The wind-protected nozzles of the water spraying system are in direct line of sight.
The operator can immediately see whether the water spraying system is working and intervene at an early stage before a drum that is too dry leads to possible quality losses.

The driver seat can be moved sideways and rotated. There is now no need to take your hand off the steering wheel when turning because the unlock button for seat rotation is located directly on the steering wheel.
When turning to the right, 180 degrees are possible and to the left, 90 degrees are possible. A comfort seat with air suspension, seat heating and ventilation, along with additional adjustment options, is available as optional equipment.

Very large, non-slip steps lead up to the cabin. There are handholds in many places—for easy access and safe machine maintenance.
The large lashing rings on the side are positioned so that the machine can be secured from the ground.

Not only the windows but the entire cabin is generously dimensioned. There are storage areas everywhere. Cup holders are included, and a secure place for a cooler bag has also been thought of.
The cabin floor is completely closed, making it particularly easy to keep clean. So if you really wanted to, you could also put a carpet in the cabin. This is how a BOMAG machine with myCOCKPIT can become your favourite workplace.

The side windows can therefore always remain closed. The cabin can then be easily air-conditioned. A pleasant 21 °C from early in the morning until the afternoon—no problem.
The desired temperature is set with the automatic climate control. And best of all: Thanks to the clever positioning of the many air vents, the windows do not mist up.

Alternatively, the operator can continue to control the roller conventionally via the armrest switches.
By means of the additional rotary switch on the travel lever, the functions can be toggled and selected on the screen. The travel lever, steering wheel and seat are a single unit.

The work lights are mounted on the frame and the roof; drum edge lighting and side lighting are optional.
A total of up to 16 spot lights with LED technology make the working area as bright as day. The switches in the cockpit are also backlit on this tandem roller.
