Rammers |
Rammers deliver a high impact force (high amplitude) making them an excellent choice for cohesive and semi-cohesive soils. Frequency range is 500 to 750 blows a minute. Rammers get compaction force from small
2 or 4 cycle gasoline or diesel engines that power a large piston set with two sets of springs. The rammer is inclined at a forward angle to allow forward travel as the machine jumps. Rammers cover three types of compaction: impact, vibration, and kneading.
Diesel rammers are perfect for heavy duty work or used where gas
powered equipment is restricted on the job site. Various sizes of
Multiquip and MBW brand rammers can be found below.
