SAKAI SW652ND-1 (OSC/VIBE) STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

Technical Description

The Sakai SW652ND-1 (OSC/VIBE) is a heavy-duty static smooth drum roller designed for asphalt and granular soil compaction. It features a 58-inch wide drum with a vibration frequency of 49 vibrations per minute, allowing for effective compaction across large surfaces. The roller’s inside turning radius is a tight 11.9 inches, enhancing maneuverability in confined areas. Powered by a Kubota diesel engine, it offers reliable performance with an operating weight of 17,150 lb (7,780 kg), balanced between the front (8,310 lb) and rear (8,840 lb) loads for stability and effective ground contact. The machine measures 169 inches in length, 64 inches in width, and stands 110 inches tall, with a wheelbase of 122 inches. Its operating width is 5.3 inches. The roller incorporates Sakai’s patented compaction technology, allowing operators to switch between oscillatory and circular vibration modes to optimize compaction for thin layers or thicker lifts, respectively. It is equipped with a rugged articulated center-pin joint and long-life rubber isolators for durability and operator comfort. The machine also features an emergency brake pedal for safety, hydraulically-driven transmission, and an eccentric shaft-type vibrator system to enhance compaction efficiency. This combination of dimension, vibration capability, and engine power makes the SW652ND-1 suitable for high-quality asphalt paving and soil compaction projects requiring precision and versatility.
