The XCMG XS183J is a heavy-duty 18-ton self-propelled vibratory road roller engineered for efficient soil compaction and rock fill stabilization. As a prominent 18-ton compactor model, it is widely utilized in major infrastructure constructions such as modern freeways, railways, airports, embankment fills, ports, dams, and mines. Built with a closed hydraulic drive system and a rigid drum structure, the XS183J provides consistent compaction performance across diverse soil layers and rock-fill materials.
Operating Weight: 18,000 kg
Engine Rated Power: 115 kW
Compacting Width: 2,300 mm
Vibration Frequency: 28 Hz
Centrifugal Force (High/Low): 290 / 145 kN (or 320 / 160 kN depending on configuration)
The rear drum is driven by a closed hydraulic system composed of a variable displacement piston pump and a piston motor, ensuring high drive performance, reliable power transmission, and stable gradeability on job sites.
The left and right vibration chambers are symmetrically engineered to eliminate polarization of the drum during high-frequency compaction. It utilizes short cylindrical bearings that feature a high rotary speed limit and high load-bearing capacity.
With a high static line load and exciting force, the XS183J effectively compacts pebbles, sandy soils, moraine soil, blasting rock, clayey soil, and concrete or stabilized soil base materials in large-scale projects.
The mechanical gearbox incorporates a synchromesh unit designed to deliver smooth gear shifts and convenient operation for the driver during continuous rolling cycles.
Highway & Railway Construction: Compacting subgrade soil and rock-fill foundations for freeways and rail lines.
Airports & Ports: High-density compaction for embankment fills and port yards.
Dams & Reservoirs: Core and shell material compaction for water conservancy projects.
