The PC6000 compactor plate has been adapted for use under a tiltrotator, increasing the excavator's efficiency whilst reducing risk of personal injury.

Combining a compactor plate with an excavator is becoming more common for soil compaction, reducing the number of machines or tools required for the task. Personal safety has also been increased by removing the need to have a person with a hand operator compactor in a shaft with the risk of walls collapsing because of vibrations or a chain or strap breaking whilst lifting equipment. All of this significantly increases workplace safety, an area that is close to engcon's heart. Furthermore, the working area becomes larger as it is possible to rotate and angle the compactor plate so that it follows the lines of the ground.

Saves time, money and increases safety

Like other hydraulic tools from engcon, the EC-Oil automatic quick hitch system is standard on the new compactor plate PC6000, which is another step in the continued work of developing tools with automatic quick hitch systems.

Advantages of engcon PC6000 compactor plate for excavators:

• EC-Oil automatic quick hitch system is standard, which means that the driver can connect the compactor plate and its hydraulics without having to leave the cab.
• Low flow requirement means that the PC6000 can be driven via the tiltrotator's extra hydraulics.
• In combination with a tiltrotator, greater access is provided, and it becomes easier to perform more types of work.
• No personnel needed in a shaft minimises the risk of personal injury, which can occur if the shaft wall collapses due to the vibrations.
• No lifting with hand-operated compactor plates that can be dropped or swung into personnel or the surroundings.
• Fewer hoses that can wear out or break due to the fact that no leakage oil line is needed.
• Screwable gate makes it easy to change to another hitch system.
