What Is A Single Drum Road Roller?
A Single Drum Road Roller, also known as a vibratory roller or compactor, is a compaction machine designed to compress soil, gravel, asphalt, and other materials in road construction. It uses the steel drum to compact materials through weight and vibration. This type of roller is ideal for small to medium construction projects, especially in tight or uneven areas.

Customer Case: Asphalt Repair in Slovenia
One of our clients in Slovenia—a small civil engineering contractor—purchased the 2-ton walk-behind double Drum Roller for a municipal project involving asphalt resurfacing of neighborhood access roads.
Project Highlights:
- Repaired over 6,000m² of asphalt surface
- Required maneuvering in narrow 1.2 m-wide lanes
- Needed uniform compaction with minimal damage to adjacent structures
The roller was used alongside a mini asphalt paver. Its dual-drum vibratory function allowed quick completion without the need for a ride-on compactor. The client reported a 15% increase in jobsite productivity and a noticeable reduction in material cracks post-compaction.
