Small-Sized Compactors Smooth Over Materials
Sakai America introduces two small double-drum steel rollers. The SW320-1 and SW330-1 (pictured) models offer a high frequency of 4,000 vpm, which translates to higher operating speeds, while still maintaining the industry standard of 10 to 12 impacts per foot. With drum widths of 47 and 51 inches, respectively, these rollers offer compaction and smoothness on small-scale jobs such as municipal roads, driveways, parking lots, bicycle paths and sports courts.
The models feature a hydrostatic drive on both ends of the machine. These dual-drive systems are designed so that materials will be pulled beneath the drums to ensure compaction, while avoiding shoving and checking. Improved 360-degree visibility and a view of both drum edges are provided by Sakai's new sliding bucket seat system. Seatbelts and ROPS are also provided for safety and as standard equipment on the models.
“One reason the SW33-1 small double-drum roller is unique for the rental market would be size,” says Shane Sirmons, marketing manager for Sakai America. “The unit has a pair of 51-inch vibrating drums, which makes it a great size for a wide range of applications. It also offers front-drum, rear-drum, both-drum vibration selection, pressurized water spray system with spray timers to conserve water, and the 4,000-vpm vibration frequency offered on all of Sakai's double drums.”
