SAKAI SW900 STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

Technical Description

The SAKAI SW900 is a vibratory smooth drum roller designed for asphalt and base course compaction applications. This heavy-duty compaction equipment features a robust double-drum design with a 55.2-inch diameter drum and an operating weight of 28,660 lbs, providing substantial compaction force for efficient material consolidation. Powered by an ISUZU BB-6BG1T diesel engine delivering 158.3 gross horsepower at 2,300 rpm, the machine achieves a maximum operating speed of 6.9 mph with a fuel capacity of 71.4 gallons for extended operational endurance. The roller offers dual vibration frequencies at 67 and 50 vpm, enabling operators to select optimal settings for varying material types and compaction requirements. With overall dimensions of 19.1 inches in length and 7.5 feet in width, combined with an 11.2-inch wheelbase and 13-inch ground clearance, the SW900 delivers excellent maneuverability on job sites while maintaining stability during operation. The machine features a 180-degree rotating multi-position operator station (MPOS) providing comprehensive visibility of drum edges and surrounding work areas, enhancing safety and operational efficiency. Fully hydrostatic drive systems ensure smooth control and precise speed management. The enclosed engine and hydraulic compartment with wide service doors facilitates maintenance accessibility, while centralized pressure gauge ports simplify system monitoring. This versatile compactor is ideal for highway construction, asphalt paving, and base course preparation where reliable, high-performance compaction is essential.
