EXA & UVW Boom Mounted Vibratory Wheels & Plates

For trench and slope compaction, nothing surpasses the productivity of MBW's patented and patent pending EXA and UV Series of Vibratory Wheels and Plates. Affixed to backhoes and excavators, intense vibration and heavy static pressure enable inspection passing compaction in all backfill soils. All models of UV Wheels come with an integral backfill blade to spread material and maintain lift thickness. EXA and UVW models reduce concerns of bridging, crushed pipe and costly shoring.

Two models of 18" wide vibratory wheels available. The 1090 lb. EXAL18 affixes to backhoes and mini-excavators to 16,000 lbs. The 1400 lb. EXA18 affixes to excavators to 60,000 lbs. Both vibratory wheels feature padded drums for use on the full range of soil types.

UV models provide the most versatile trench compaction system available. A Universal Vibratory Head is attached to the excavator boom. The Universal Vibratory Head in turn is coupled to 24 or 36 inch padded wheels (UVW) or plates (UVP) all of which are easily interchanged as conditions warrant. A tri-level compression isolation system keeps vibration from attacking the host machine. Unique design minimizes downtime in spite of combined vibration and down pressure brought to bear on a small compaction footprint.

Patent pending, low temperature exciter system keeps operating temps at or below 200 degrees, preserves lubricant integrity, minimizes wear to seals and bearings.

Pin mount or flat top mounting systems. Pin mount bushing move laterally within compression rings to adjust for stick with. Flat top models accept all quick coupling systems.

UV Wheels are heavily built (to 2863 lbs.) Extra heavy frame. Drum shaft supported at both ends with high load bearing capacity bearings. Delivers CF to 10,000 lbs. at 3000 vpm and down pressure to 33,000 pounds. Variable amplitude dependent on down pressure.

UV Plates deliver greater compaction forces than all previous boom mounted plate designs. Compression isolation enables maximum down pressure to be applied by host machine. Shock mounts are never over stretched, boom never bottoms out on compactor. No internal stops, plate is isolated at all times.

All EXA, UVW and UVP models feature a highly efficient hydraulic system requiring only 10 gallons/minute at 1500 to 3000 psi.
