Luoyang Lutong Heavy Industry Machinery Co., Ltd., a leading Chinese manufacturer of road compaction equipment, officially introduces its upgraded LT304 single drum vibratory road roller, a 4-ton compact compactor tailored for municipal road repair, community pavement, garden paths and narrow construction sites worldwide. Built with mature hydraulic vibration technology and eco-friendly power configuration, the LT304 balances high compaction performance, low operation cost and outstanding flexibility to meet diverse small-scale paving demands for global contractors.
The LT304’s core competitive advantage lies in its powerful compaction capacity. Equipped with a hydraulic vibration system delivering 45KN excitation force, 0.5mm amplitude and 46Hz vibration frequency, the machine achieves uniform, high-density compaction on asphalt, gravel and soil bases without repeated rolling cycles, greatly boosting daily construction efficiency. Its 1280mm-wide vibration drum covers a sufficient working width, while the articulated 30° steering frame and 260mm minimum ground clearance grant excellent passing performance on uneven ground, with a maximum climbing capacity of 30% to handle sloped road sections smoothly.
Powered by a reliable Sida SD4 National Stage IV diesel engine, the LT304 complies with international emission standards while cutting daily fuel consumption significantly compared to conventional compact rollers. The mechanical rear-wheel drive and one-lever integrated control design realize stepless speed adjustment between 2.4km/h and 6.0km/h, lowering operation difficulty for novice drivers and reducing long-term labor costs for construction teams. Overall dimension of 4040×1500×2560mm ensures easy transportation between scattered job sites, a critical benefit for small engineering fleets.
Operator comfort and easy maintenance are fully optimized in this new model. The floating shock-absorbing seat minimizes vibration fatigue during long shifts, and the large-angle open engine hood provides full access to core components for quick inspection and parts replacement, shortening equipment downtime. A built-in large-capacity water sprinkling system supports continuous dust suppression during asphalt rolling, protecting pavement finish and improving on-site environmental conditions. All structural parts adopt anti-rust thick steel plate, with a standard 1-year global warranty to reduce after-sales worries for overseas buyers.
“Small-scale municipal and residential construction is a fast-growing market segment globally, and many customers demand compact rollers that are both powerful and cost-effective,” said the Product Director of Luoyang Lutong. “We developed the LT304 to fill this market gap: it retains the rugged durability of Lutong’s heavy-duty machinery while shrinking the footprint for narrow working zones. The balanced combination of strong excitation force, low fuel cost and flexible mobility has received positive feedback from pre-order clients across Southeast Asia, Central Asia and Eastern Europe.”
The LT304 has obtained CE certification to meet European construction machinery standards, supporting export to more than 50 countries and regions. Luoyang Lutong offers customizable configurations including reinforced anti-slip drum, upgraded sprinkling pumps and anti-roll canopy upon client requests, alongside complete spare parts supply and overseas technical training services.
