Plate contact · powered vibration
Positioned plate contact for compacting ground in a defined working area.
Roller contact · powered vibration
Rolling contact for work that benefits from movement along a compacting path.
Passive rolling and kneading
A non-hydraulic type that uses excavator downforce with passive rolling and kneading.
The correct type depends on contact method movement and the intended working result
For a defined patch where the head will be placed and repositioned, compare Plate Compactor contact. For a continuous path, compare Roller Compactor rolling contact. A Compaction Wheel uses passive rolling and kneading under excavator downforce.
In a trench or along an edge, check available width, access and boom positioning before choosing a head. On a longer run, consider the rolling path and room to turn or reposition. The site geometry matters alongside the contact method.
Confirm the excavator model, mounting interface and attachment weight. Ground condition and the required compaction result still need project-specific confirmation.
No. The Compaction Wheel is passive and non-hydraulic.
No. Powered-vibration data does not apply to the passive Compaction Wheel.
Start with the excavator model, ground, working area, movement path and preferred compaction method.
