Plate Compactors
Hydraulic Plate Compactors
Montabert TraPac hydraulic plate compactors are engineered to deliver powerful compaction performance with minimal maintenance requirements. Designed for carriers from 3,000 to 100,000 lbs, TraPac compactors combine oversized eccentric technology, durable construction, and easy installation to maximize productivity in trench compaction, foundation work, slope stabilization, and pile driving applications.
Overview
Montabert TraPac boom-mounted vibratory plate compactors are built to handle demanding compaction applications while remaining simple to install, operate, and maintain. The TraPac operating system combines oversized eccentric weight, balanced amplitude, and optimized vibration frequency to produce powerful centrifugal force for maximum soil compaction performance.
Key Features
- Oversized eccentric system generates powerful compaction force.
- Heavy rubber isolators protect the excavator boom from vibration.
- Oil bath bearings eliminate routine greasing requirements.
- Integral baseplate and eccentric housing reduce maintenance points.
- Quick installation kits simplify mounting and hookup.
- Can also be used for vibratory pile driving applications.
- Available with Montabert hydraulic breaker bolt pattern mounting.
Applications
TraPac compactors are ideal for trench compaction, embankment work, slope stabilization, foundation preparation, backfill compaction, utility installation, and pile driving in granular soil conditions.
