Sakai Rollers

Sakai America offers a complete line of high force vibratory soil compactors that are designed for rapid compaction of a variety of materials including soil, stone, and recycled base materials. Sakai America also offers a complete line of high-frequency vibratory asphalt rollers that are designed to meet density and smoothness requirements on HMA (hot mix asphalt).

Unlike traditional static rollers that depend on the weight of the roller to generate enough force to meet compaction ratings, Sakai vibratory rollers incorporate dynamic forces that generate high compaction at less cost. These dynamic forces are achieved by a rotating accentric weight inside the steel drum. This high-frequency rotation develops centrifugal forces sufficient enough to lift and drop the steel drum 4,020 times per minute as it moves across the material, increasing the compactive effort up to six times that of a traditional static roller.
