BOMAG BW 284 AD-4 STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

Technical Description

The BOMAG BW 284 AD-4 is a heavy-duty static smooth drum roller designed for efficient asphalt compaction and soil stabilization. It is powered by a robust **185.1 hp Cummins diesel engine** operating at 2200 rpm, delivering high reliability and performance. The machine features an **84-inch wide smooth drum** with a diameter of 54.1 inches, providing a static linear load of 169.2 lb/in for effective compaction across various surfaces. The drum vibrates at a frequency ranging from 3400 to 4000 vibrations per minute (vpm), with a nominal amplitude of 0.1 inches and generating a centrifugal force of approximately 34,643 lbs at medium amplitude, ensuring deep and uniform compaction. With an **operating weight of 28,424 lbs**, the BW 284 AD-4 maintains excellent ground contact while ensuring worksite stability. It supports an operating width of 90 inches and an inside turning radius of 165 inches, balancing maneuverability with wide-area coverage. The roller reaches a maximum speed of 10.1 mph and incorporates a 75-gallon fuel tank for extended operation. Its dimensions include an overall length of 17.92 feet, height to cab top of 8.84 feet, and a wheelbase of 10.84 feet. Ground clearance is set at 18 inches for versatility over varied terrain. The machine offers a durable, reliable solution for heavy compaction tasks in highway, road, and large-scale construction projects, leveraging BOMAG’s engineering focus on productivity, vibration isolation, and easy maintenance access. Its robust drivetrain and advanced vibration system make it ideal for producing smooth, dense layers with minimal passes.
