VOLVO SD70F STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

Technical Description

The Volvo SD70F is a static smooth drum roller designed for efficient soil and asphalt compaction. It features a 66-inch wide smooth drum with an operating width of 74 inches and an overall machine width of 5.5 feet. The roller operates with a vibration frequency ranging from 1,850 to 2,025 vibrations per minute (vpm) and a drum vibration frequency of 33.8 vpm, delivering high compaction performance. The machine is powered by a 99 hp engine at 2,200 rpm, providing robust power for demanding compaction tasks. It produces a maximum vibration centrifugal force of approximately 32,148 pounds at high amplitude and 23,380 pounds at low amplitude, with nominal amplitudes of 0.078 inches and 0.047 inches respectively. The SD70F stands about 115 to 116 inches tall to the top of its Roll Over Protection Structure (ROPS) or Falling Object Protective Structure (FOPS) and has a wheelbase of 105 inches. Its compact dimensions combined with powerful vibration settings make it suitable for medium to large scale compaction projects such as road construction, embankments, and base preparation. The roller’s hydrostatic drive and vibration system ensure uniform compaction with ease of maneuverability and operator comfort. Overall, the Volvo SD70F balances power, precision, and durability in a smooth drum roller tailored for professional use in diverse compaction environments.
