SAKAI SW500 STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

The Sakai SW500 Static Smooth Drum Roller is a compact, high-performance vibratory compaction machine designed for efficient asphalt and soil compaction. It features a 51-inch wide smooth steel drum with a 31.5-inch diameter, providing an operating width of 55 inches. The drum vibrates at a frequency of 3300 vibrations per minute (vpm), delivering a medium centrifugal force of approximately 6,520 lbs to ensure optimal compaction results. Powered by a reliable Isuzu 4LE1 diesel engine, the unit produces 38.9 horsepower at 2300 rpm, providing robust and consistent performance. The roller has an operating weight of about 8,818.5 lbs and a maximum speed of 7 mph, suitable for various site conditions. Its compact dimensions include an inside turning radius of 118 inches, overall length of 10.18 feet, height to top of cab of 5.58 feet, and a wheelbase of 7.55 feet, enabling excellent maneuverability, especially in tight spaces. The machine includes a fuel capacity of 13.8 gallons and a hydraulic fluid capacity of 15.9 gallons. Ground clearance is measured at 11 inches, contributing to stable operation on uneven surfaces. The system incorporates a fully hydrostatic drive, allowing smooth forward and reverse control via dual levers and enabling automatic and manual vibration modes. High curb clearance and small side overhang make it suitable for compaction near curbs and walls, and it is equipped with a corrosion-proof water sprinkler system for drum wetting. The ergonomic operator seat and excellent visibility ensure comfortable and safe operation during extended use.
