BOMAG BM284 STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

Technical Description

The BOMAG BM284 Static Smooth Drum Roller is a heavy-duty vibratory compactor designed for high-performance soil and base compaction in demanding construction and infrastructure projects. It features an 84.1-inch wide smooth drum with a 54.1-inch diameter, delivering a static linear load of 429.6 lb/in and an operating weight of 28,425 lb for excellent ground contact and compaction efficiency. The machine is powered by a Cummins QSB 4.5 engine producing 160 hp (119 kW), providing strong performance and reliability across a range of job site conditions. It offers two vibration frequencies—59.7 vpm and 66.7 vpm—with a nominal medium amplitude of 0.1 in, enabling optimized compaction on various soil types. The BM284 has a ground clearance of 18 in and a cab height of 8.9 ft, supporting good obstacle clearance and operator visibility. With a maximum travel speed of 10.1 mph (16 km/h) and a 75-gallon fuel tank, it ensures extended operation and good mobility on large sites. Designed for durability and operator comfort, the BM284 is suitable for heavy-duty earthwork, road base, and subgrade compaction where high static linear load and robust performance are required.
