VOLVO DD118HF STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

The Volvo DD118HF is a heavy-duty smooth drum roller designed for soil and asphalt compaction with superior efficiency and reliability. Powered by a turbocharged 148 hp Cummins four-cylinder diesel engine, it delivers robust performance matched with efficient fuel consumption. The roller features a 7-foot-wide smooth steel drum with a diameter of approximately 55.2 inches, providing a large compaction footprint to ensure uniform surface density. It operates at a vibration frequency of 56.7 vibrations per minute (vpm), with nominal amplitudes of 0.1 inches at both high and low settings, producing a high centrifugal force of about 42,669 pounds for effective soil consolidation. The DD118HF has an operating weight of roughly 27,260 pounds, allowing substantial downward force while maintaining maneuverability, supported by a compact inside turning radius of 12.4 feet. Its overall length is about 19.67 feet with a height of 10.37 feet to the top of the cab, and a wheelbase of 11.65 feet, enabling stability and operator comfort. Hydraulic and fuel systems are optimized with capacities of approximately 34.9 and 53.1 gallons, respectively, supporting long operational hours. Additional features include hydrostatic drive, high-speed travel capability, and water systems for drum cleaning, making it suitable for road construction, asphalt paving, and foundation compaction projects demanding consistent, high-quality results. This model balances power, precision, and durability for demanding compaction tasks.
