As you roll, the INTELLICOMPACTION measurement system delivers real-time compaction data directly to your single drum vibrating roller, ensuring consistent, efficient results every time.

• Live compaction data enables operators to manage their workload efficiently and easily.
• System links to the in-cab display, highlighting hard and soft spots with regular updates.
• Save time and resources by eliminating the risk of over or under compacting surfaces.

We always design with ease in mind. That’s why this soil roller features four working modes – giving you enhanced tractive power, and improved gradeability.

• Engine power of 97kW with Stage V DIESELMAX 448 engine, with up to 20% better fuel efficiency than other leading manufacturers.
• The high torque JCB engine, combined with the sturdy JCB LSD Axle and the perfect weight balance make the machine climb at 55%, even with vibration.
• Best-in-class compaction power of 292kN, compacting soil in less passes, and automatic vibration controls (AVC), optimising what your operator can achieve.
• Drum shell thickness of 32mm with additional 10mm lateral stiffener rings increasing the vibrating mass further for an even stronger and durable machine.

Straightforward controls are part of our DNA – and this single smooth drum roller is no exception. Designed to master in seconds, it’s perfectly suited for rentals and busy jobsites.

• Intuitive and ergonomic cab layout makes the process of using the machine easier, saving time and money.
• 7-inch touch screen and rotating seat keeps operators productive and comfortable.
• Our soil compactor machine is a breeze to operate – fitted with air conditioning, heating, Bluetooth radio, speedometer and inclinometer.
• Market leading all-round visibility – operators can be precise on every job.

Uptime is everything on the job – no matter if you’re renting or buying a single drum soil compactor. Our machines are designed for fast, hassle-free maintenance that keeps you moving.

• Our ingenious scavenge system creates a vacuum that sucks all the dust out of the air filter – increasing the lifespan of not just the air filter, but the injectors and engine too.
• With JCB’s LiveLink, you can get real-time maintenance updates, live GPS location sharing, and geofencing alerts when machines move out of their usual operating areas. – giving you complete peace of mind.
• Teflon-coated bearings make the centre joint maintenance free, saving up to 250 service hours in the machine lifetime – plus our plastic fuel tank reduces wear and tear.
• Integrated beacons in the cab roof and a seatbelt monitoring system ensures safe operation on site, avoid theft and don’t need to be removed for transportation.

INTELLICOMPACTION is our latest innovation in compaction control technology, designed to help operators work more efficiently while maximising productivity.

Integrated directly into the in-cab display of the single drum vibratory roller, the system continuously measures ICV values to assess surface conditions in real time. By identifying hard and soft spots and monitoring overall compaction levels, it provides instant feedback that helps prevent over-compaction and keeps operations running safely and efficiently.

Celebrated globally for exceptional engineering, the JCB single drum soil compactor delivers superior performance and reliability.
