CATERPILLAR CB434D XW STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

The Caterpillar CB434D XW is a robust smooth drum roller designed for efficient soil and asphalt compaction. It features a 67-inch (1.7 m) wide drum with a diameter of 42 inches, delivering increased lane coverage for higher productivity and fewer passes. The machine operates with a dual-frequency vibratory system at 3,200/4,200 vibrations per minute (53/70 Hz), providing variable centrifugal forces ranging from 6,525 to 17,550 lbs per drum to adapt to different compaction needs. The nominal amplitudes are 0.009 in for low and 0.024 in for high settings, ensuring versatile compaction performance. Powered by a Caterpillar 3054C engine producing 83 hp, the CB434D XW supports an operating weight of 16,710 lbs, balancing high compaction force with maneuverability. Its dimensions include a width of 73 inches (6.08 ft), an overall length of 165 inches, and a height to the top of the ROPS cab at 10.03 ft. The machine offers a maximum travel speed of 7 mph and a tight turning radius at the inside drum edge of 11.17 ft, optimizing worksite efficiency. Clearance measures include a 10-inch ground clearance and 28-inch curb clearance, suitable for diverse terrains. Operator comfort and control are enhanced by an adjustable console with multiple positions, a multifunction ergonomic propel handle, and vibration-isolated cab mounting to reduce operator fatigue. The water spray system has a 211-gallon capacity to prevent asphalt from sticking to the drum. The CB434D XW combines power, versatility, and operator-friendly features, making it ideal for various earthworks and paving applications.
