SAKAI PD43 STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

Technical Description

The Sakai PD43 Static Smooth Drum Roller is a robust compaction machine designed for smooth asphalt and soil finishing tasks. It features a 43-inch wide smooth drum with a vibration frequency of 35 vibrations per minute (vpm), enabling efficient static compaction and surface smoothness. The roller's inside turning radius is 94 inches, allowing for maneuverability in confined spaces. Powered by a reliable Deere 3029DF150 diesel engine, this 3-cylinder PowerTech engine has a displacement of 2.9 liters (177 cu in), a bore of 4.17 inches, and a stroke of 4.33 inches. It delivers rated power between 48 to 58 horsepower at 2500 rpm, with peak power closely matched at 50-58 hp within a 2400-2500 rpm range. The compact and dry engine weighs approximately 699 pounds, with dimensions of 28.2 inches in length, 20.8 inches in width, and 32.2 inches in height. The PD43 operates with a total compaction width of 49 inches, slightly wider than the drum itself for effective coverage. This combination of a powerful, fuel-efficient engine and a stable static smooth drum makes the Sakai PD43 ideal for surface compaction applications requiring precision, smoothness, and reliability in construction and paving projects.
