APPLICATIONS

Plate compactor is the machine that compact the ground and it intends to make the

surface smooth, by transmitting vibration through vibrating plate, which power

generated from single motor in vibrator case . This machine is suitable for making the

ground surface smooth, such as leveling the soil and beaching, finishing the asphalt

paving. Applications as followings:

Trench compaction Earth works

Road maintenance Landscaping

Brick paving Driveway toppings

! Warning for incorrect application and abuse

This machine is hard to move forward on a soil with much water (especially clay soil). It is

not suitable for such application. This machine is difficult to level a ground include big

stones due to insufficient

compacting force. Plate compactor is mainly applied for

compacting surface smooth and it is not effective for jobs that requires heavy

compaction. In case of compacting ground deeply into lower layer, it is recommended to

use. Tamping Rammer, Vibro Compactor and Vibration Roller, which compacting force is

rather effective. Please use this compactor for compacting surface on soil, sediment,

sand, beaching and asphalt. It is not recommended for use this machine for the other

applications.

STRUCTURE

The upper part is made up of Power Source, Handle, Belt Cover and Guard Hook which

are fixed by

Engine base.

The Engine base is fixed on Vibrating Plate by Shock Absorbing

Rubber. The lower part is made up of Vibrating Plate and Vibrator unit that has an

Eccentric rotary shaft built in. The power source is transmitted from the centrifugal clutch

on engine output shaft to the eccentric rotary shaft via V -belt.

Power Transfer Air-cooled single cylinder engine is amounted as power source and

Centrifugal Clutch is fixed on engineoutput shaft. Petrol Engine (2 cycles, 4 cycles) and

Diesel Gasoline Engine can be mounted as option.

Centrifugal Clutch engages by running up the engine and engine is reduced of suitable

number forcompacting. The rotation of engine is transmitted from V - pulley integrated

with Clutch drum to Vibrator pulley through V - -belt. Vibrator Pulley rotates Eccentric

rotor shaft that is contained in Vibrator case. The generated vibration created from

eccentric rotor is transmitted to Compaction with the weight of the machine makes the

compaction of the ground possible.
