VOLVO DD14S STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

The Volvo DD14S is a compact static smooth drum roller designed for efficient soil and asphalt compaction. It features an overall width of 3.3 ft and an inside turning radius of 9 ft, allowing for maneuverability in confined spaces. The machine is equipped with a 35.4-inch wide drum with a diameter of 22.1 inches, capable of vibrating at a frequency of 66.7 vibrations per minute to provide consistent compaction force. It delivers a nominal amplitude of 0.1 inch and generates a centrifugal force of approximately 3,507 lb in medium vibration mode, ensuring effective compaction performance. Powering the DD14S is a Kubota D722 diesel engine, a vertical, water-cooled, naturally aspirated 3-cylinder 4-cycle engine delivering 16.9 hp. This engine complies with modern emission standards and is noted for its reliability, low noise, and vibration-reducing design features such as coated pistons and a half-float valve cover. The unit operates at a maximum speed of 5 mph and runs on a fuel capacity of 7.8 gallons, with a hydraulic system fluid capacity of 9.1 gallons. The operating weight of the roller is approximately 3,173 lb, providing sufficient ground pressure for effective compaction. The Volvo DD14S’s compact dimensions, coupled with the efficient Kubota engine and smooth drum design, make it suitable for small-to-medium scale compaction tasks in construction and paving projects where precision and reliability are essential. Its design emphasizes ease of use, environmental compliance, and operator comfort through reduced noise and vibration levels.
