Luoyang, China – August 10, 2026 — Luoyang Lutong Heavy Industry Machinery Co., Ltd., a professional manufacturer of high-quality road construction machinery, presents the LT218B 18-ton single drum vibratory road roller, a versatile and high-performance compaction equipment tailored for various civil engineering and road construction scenarios. Integrates mature industrial design, powerful power configuration and humanized operation design, the LT218B has become a core mainstream model in the medium-tonnage road roller series.
The LT218B road roller features a standard operating weight of 18 tons, equipped with a high-efficiency Yuchai YC6108ZG diesel engine with a rated power of 132kW and a rated speed of 2000rpm. The power unit delivers stable output, strong torque reserve and excellent adaptability to various construction environments, ensuring continuous and efficient operation under heavy-load working conditions such as road subgrade compaction, foundation filling and pavement base treatment.
In terms of core compaction performance, the machine adopts a mature dual-amplitude vibration system with a fixed vibration frequency of 30Hz. It supports two adjustable exciting forces of 340kN and 200kN, matched with a standard vibration amplitude of 1.0mm, which can meet dual construction requirements of high-strength deep compaction and fine surface leveling. The thickened reinforced steel drum adopts a 2100mm working width and 40mm rim thickness, with solid and durable structural performance. It can efficiently compact gravel, macadam, soil filling and other materials, realizing uniform compaction density and effectively improving the flatness and stability of the construction foundation.
The equipment excels in driving performance and site adaptability. It adopts mechanical traveling transmission and hydraulic full-steering system, with three adjustable traveling speeds of 2.0km/h, 4.0km/h and 10.5km/h, balancing construction precision and operating efficiency. With a maximum climbing capacity of 35% and a flexible steering structure, the roller can adapt to complex and narrow construction sites, realizing flexible turning and stable traveling. Equipped with large-size anti-skid engineering tires, it effectively avoids slipping on uneven and muddy road surfaces, ensuring stable operation in various harsh working conditions.
Humanized design and low maintenance are the prominent advantages of LT218B. The fully enclosed panoramic cab is equipped with multi-layer shock absorption and noise reduction devices, which greatly reduces vibration and noise during operation and improves long-term driving comfort for operators. The 360° transparent window design provides a wide and unobstructed operating view, convenient for real-time observation of the compaction condition. The dual braking system of foot service brake and hand parking brake ensures safe and reliable operation. The integral flip-type engine hood is adopted, which simplifies daily inspection, oil replacement and component maintenance work, effectively reduces later maintenance costs and downtime, and improves the overall construction continuity. In addition, the model supports optional footed drum accessories to meet the compaction operation requirements of special soil layers such as cohesive soil.
Manufactured in strict accordance with industrial quality standards, the LT218B road roller has stable overall performance, strong structural durability and wide application range. It is widely applicable to highway and municipal road construction, airport pavement engineering, dam foundation compaction, industrial site leveling and other engineering projects. With outstanding cost performance, reliable quality and convenient after-sales maintenance, it is an ideal compaction equipment for medium and large-scale infrastructure construction projects.
