When you are the sole decision-maker for your construction site and the responsibility to buy heavy equipment rests on you, it can get pretty hectic. Particularly in the case of expensive and heavy equipment like compactors, there are numerous options in the market but not all of them are of the same quality. So, you have to pick equipment wisely based on your purpose and budget. Before you decide which compactor to choose for your construction project, here is a brief idea about the equipment.

Compactors – An Overview

A compactor, also known as a soil compactor is a machine used mainly for construction and industrial purposes. It applies pressure to the soil and closes air gaps within it. It hardens and increases the density of the soil so that it can withstand the weight of other heavier machines.

Compactors are mainly used in the construction of roads, bridges, embankments, dams, and also for waste management purposes.

How does it work?

A compactor uses a series of processes to carry out its functions. They are:

• Loading – The material to be hardened is packed into the compactor manually or mechanically, depending upon its weight.
• Compression – After loading the machine compresses the material by applying pressure. This is done through a hydraulic cylinder that applies constant pressure.
• Ejection – Once compressed, the material is taken out of the compactor using a conveyor belt or a ram.
• Storage or Disposal – Depending on the requirement, the compressed material is stored for further use or disposed of. It may also be recycled for further use.

Types of Compactors

• Compactors can be grouped into three main categories based on their features and areas of use.
• Flat-plate Compactors or whacker plates, are used in road laying and paving activities.
• Jumping Jack Compactors are used to harden gravel and soil in tight places that rollers cannot access.
• Roller Compactors, or simply rollers, are used in large and open areas for the construction of roads, highways, bridges, and so on.
