CATERPILLAR CS76 STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

The Caterpillar CS76 is a high-performance static smooth drum roller designed for effective compaction in various construction applications. It features an 84-inch (2134 mm) wide drum with a diameter of 60 inches (1535 mm), capable of operating at vibratory frequencies from 1,400 to 1,800 vibrations per minute (vpm). The machine offers a maximum centrifugal force of 74,600 lb and a nominal amplitude of 0.1 inches, ensuring deep and uniform soil compaction. Powered by a Caterpillar C6.6 engine delivering 177 horsepower, the CS76 achieves a top travel speed of 7 mph and excellent gradeability, facilitating operation on slopes up to 56%. The overall dimensions include a width of approximately 7.67 ft (2.34 m), length of 19.25 ft (5.87 m), height up to 10.08 ft (3.07 m) depending on cab or ROPS configuration, and a wheelbase of 9.5 ft (2.9 m). It weighs about 36,945 lb (16.75 t) with ROPS/FOPS and slightly more with the cab, with a drum weight exceeding 23,700 lb (10.75 t). The static linear load measures around 283 lb/in, contributing to its compaction effectiveness. Operator comfort and productivity are enhanced by ergonomic design, excellent visibility, and options such as an air-conditioned cab. The hydraulic system and dual-pump propel design provide smooth steering and robust traction. Additional features include maintenance-free hitch bearings and extended service intervals, boosting uptime. Optional accessories like padfoot shell kits and GPS compaction mapping further expand its versatility and efficiency on site.
