Excalibur Ride-On Tandem Vibratory Road Roller, 1.7 Ton, 18.8 HP - RZ216V

Tandem Road Roller 1.7 Ton

The Excalibur RZ216V is a ride-on tandem vibratory road roller built for heavy-duty compaction across asphalt, non-cohesive soil, and stabilized sub-base materials. Operating at a base weight of 1.7 tons, this machine is driven by a Japanese Kubota D722 water-cooled diesel engine that generates 18.8 HP (14 kW) of consistent mechanical power. The powertrain integrates directly with a premium Poclain hydraulic system, providing precise travel control at variable speeds up to 7 km/h. This mechanical configuration meets the rigorous demands of civil engineering tasks, highway pavement maintenance, and trench backfill operations where sustained compaction force is strictly required.

The compaction system relies on a dual-drum drive setup, with each drum measuring 900 mm in width and 560 mm in diameter. Operating at a high vibration frequency of 65 Hz, the roller applies a robust 23.5 kN centrifugal force directly into the working surface, packing thick aggregate layers densely in fewer passes. A structural ±7° vertical pendulum angle maintains constant ground contact over uneven terrain, while the built-in 35% gradeability allows the machine to easily navigate steep ramps and foundation inclines. For asphalt applications, a 110-liter water tank supplies continuous pressurized sprinkling to prevent material adhesion, keeping the steel drums clean for a highly uniform and flat surface finish.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Ergonomic Ride-On Operation: Features a high-back operator seat paired with an intuitive steering wheel configuration, reducing physical fatigue during long shifts and providing precise steering control.

• Genuine Kubota D722 Engine: Equipped with a Japanese water-cooled diesel engine delivering 18.8 HP (14 kW), providing reliable mechanical output for extended work cycles under heavy loads.

• Dual Drum Drive System: The double-drum configuration ensures maximum surface traction and highly uniform compaction across the entire work path.

• High-Impact Centrifugal Force: Generates 23.5 kN of centrifugal force paired with a 65 Hz vibration frequency, packing materials densely to reduce the number of required passes.

• Optimized Drum Dimensions: Features 900 mm wide drums with a 560 mm diameter, sized precisely to navigate narrow paths, tight curbs, and restricted spaces.

• Heavy-Duty Static Force: Delivers a static line force of 92/100 kg/cm (front/rear), applying consistent weight to achieve flat, professional surfaces.

• Premium Poclain Hydraulics: Utilizes a hydraulic pump from Poclain that controls continuously variable travel speeds ranging from 0 to 7 km/h for precise maneuverability.

• Excellent Gradeability: Engineered to handle steep inclines and slopes up to 35% (without vibration), allowing the machine to navigate uneven terrains directly.

• Articulated Flexibility: Built with a ±7° vertical pendulum angle that tracks smoothly over uneven ground, maintaining constant drum contact with the work surface.

• High-Capacity Water System: Incorporates a 110-liter water tank to provide continuous pressurized drum lubrication, preventing hot asphalt from sticking to the steel surface.

• Instant Emergency Stop: Features a highly visible, quick-access emergency braking button that instantly cuts power to ensure immediate machine shutdown during critical situations.

• Self-Start System: Integrates a reliable electrical key-start mechanism, ensuring quick and effortless engine ignition across varying weather conditions.

• Accessible Maintenance Layout: The structural design includes a flip-open engine hood, providing direct access to the engine and vital components for daily servicing.

• Versatile Compaction Applications: Designed to provide reliable compaction on asphalt, non-cohesive soil, and stabilized soils, supporting municipal maintenance, trench backfill, and building construction operations.
