VOLVO SD105 STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

Technical Description

The Volvo SD105 is a static smooth drum roller designed for soil compaction with robust operating specifications. It features an 84-inch wide drum and an operating width of 90 inches, delivering efficient compaction across large surfaces. The drum vibration frequency ranges between 31 and 34 vibrations per minute (vpm), with dual amplitude settings of 1.92 mm and 1.29 mm to optimize compaction effectiveness depending on soil conditions. The roller is powered by a Cummins QSB 4.5L turbocharged and intercooled diesel engine, rated at 130 horsepower, providing reliable and efficient performance. The machine has a substantial operating weight of approximately 24,881 pounds, including ROPS (Roll Over Protection Structure), cab, and scraper, contributing to its compaction force. It offers an inside turning radius of 136.3 inches, with articulation and oscillation angles of ±38° and ±17°, respectively, enhancing maneuverability on varied terrain. The hydraulic drive system controls drum vibration, steering, and propulsion with precision, enabling smooth operation and variable speed control. The SD105 incorporates safety features such as ROPS and FOPS (Falling Object Protection Structure), plus an ergonomic operator console with controls for vibration frequency, amplitude, and machine speed. Its rugged construction includes separate front and rear frame assemblies linked by articulation and oscillation joints for durability and stability during operation. This model is suitable for medium to heavy-duty compaction tasks, offering reliable power, versatile vibration settings, and excellent gradeability for diverse construction environments.
