JCB VM 117 PD STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

The JCB VM 117 PD is a robust static smooth drum roller engineered for superior soil compaction, boasting an operating weight of 29,321.5 lbs. Powered by a 125 hp JCB 444/EcoMAX four-cylinder, water-cooled, turbocharged diesel engine compliant with T4i Stage IIIb emissions, it delivers 405.7 lb-ft of torque at 2200 rpm. The roller features a large 82.7-inch-wide drum with a thickness of 0.6 inches, providing a static linear load of 65.1 lbs per inch for uniform compaction. Operating at an amplitude of 0.1 inches and generating a centrifugal force of 57,551 lbs, it achieves high compaction efficiency with a smooth vibratory drive. The machine supports a travel speed of 6.9 mph and has a turning radius of 133.1 inches for maneuverability. Key capacities include a 75.3-gallon fuel tank, 3.7 gallons of engine oil, 2.2 gallons of gear oil, and 19.9 gallons of hydraulic oil. Dimensions are 7.7 ft in height (10.1 ft with ROPS/FOPS), 7.4 ft in width, a wheelbase of 115.4 inches, and ground clearance of 17.6 inches. Electrical systems encompass a 12-volt, 120 Ah battery and a 60-amp alternator. Additional features include hydrostatic rear axle and drum drive, limited-slip differential, and high front weight ratio for optimized static linear load. Designed for applications on roads, highways, and other heavy-duty projects, this model offers durability, ease of serviceability, and enhanced productivity through fuel-efficient engine technology and advanced vibration control.
