JCB VM115PD STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

The JCB VM115PD Static Smooth Drum Roller is a robust compaction machine designed for efficient soil and asphalt rolling. It features a turbocharged, 4-cylinder JCB444TA diesel engine with 125 hp gross power at 2200 rpm and a displacement of 268 cu in, delivering strong performance and reliability. The machine operates at 12 volts with a 95-amp alternator and a substantial fuel capacity of 79.3 gallons, supported by a 3.7-gallon cooling system and 2.9 gallons of engine oil capacity. The vibratory drum measures 82.7 inches wide and 59.1 inches in diameter, equipped with 132 pads of 4-inch height for effective compaction with nominal amplitude of 0.1 inch and vibration frequencies of 31 and 36 vibrations per minute. It generates a high centrifugal force of roughly 39,566 lbs for deep and consistent compaction. The roller weighs approximately 25,574 lbs with a ground clearance of 17.6 inches, a height of 9.7 feet, and an overall length of 17.9 feet, suitable for maneuverability and stability. The machine’s hydrostatic direct drive propulsion system includes infinitely variable speed control with a max speed of 6.6 mph. Tires are 23.1-26/12 tractor tread, providing durability and traction on various surfaces. The drum’s exciter drive and steering system include a multidisc self-locking differential (NoSPIN) and servo-assisted articulation with vertical oscillation, enhancing control and operational efficiency in diverse compaction tasks.
