CATERPILLAR CD54B - SOLID DRUM STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

Technical Description

The Caterpillar CD54B Solid Drum Static Smooth Drum Roller is engineered for efficient compaction on various surfaces. It features a 67-inch wide solid drum with a 47-inch diameter, providing a standard compaction width of 67 inches and a maximum compaction width of 118 inches. Powered by a Cat C3.4B engine with ACERT Technology, it delivers 102 hp (76 kW) with a bore of 3.9 inches and stroke of 4.4 inches. The roller offers a maximum travel speed of 7.5 mph (11 kph) and an inside drum edge turning radius of 111.6 inches, ensuring maneuverability. Its static linear load reaches 149 lbs per inch, contributing to its strong compaction capabilities. The machine’s overall dimensions include a length of 13.9 ft, width of 5.5 ft, height to the top of ROPS/FOPS of 116 inches, and a wheelbase of 10.3 ft. Ground clearance is 0.9 ft with a curb clearance of 31 inches, optimizing operational flexibility. The roller’s vibratory system provides centrifugal forces ranging from 16,973 lbs to 19,491 lbs using a hydraulically driven eccentric weight drive with auto-reversing capability and uniform nominal amplitudes of 0.1 inches. Fuel capacity is 50 gallons, and the water spray system holds 198 gallons to aid in smooth compaction and dust control. The operating weight with ROPS/FOPS is approximately 15,873 lbs, increasing to nearly 19,908 lbs with the cab installed. This robust, reliable smooth drum roller is suitable for heavy-duty compaction tasks in roadwork and construction projects requiring uniform soil or asphalt compaction.
