Faster compaction

Faster compaction
The Sakai SW652ND double-drum oscillating roller oscillates or vibrates on both drums simultaneously. Each drum is independently controlled for optimum flex-ibility. This advanced technology machine achieves the required compaction faster on both thin and thick lift asphalt applications. The vibration mode is a typical Sakai dual-amplitude, high-frequency 4,020 vpm. Sakai high frequency permits high ground speeds that enable the roller to reach density quickly.

The more gentle oscillation mode offers a new drum motion that will neither over-compact the mat nor fracture the aggregate. By developing a horizontal, rather than vertical motion in the oscillatory mode, the SW652ND can successfully vibrate and move the material’s particles without damaging the mat surface.
