KENCO COMPACTION WHEELS
COMPACTION WHEEL
Having an Open rim allows the Compaction wheel to penetrate through the lift of trench fill and compact the soil from the bottom up rather than the top down. The equipment operator, after using the Compaction Wheel for a reasonable amount of time, can normally tell that he has reached his required compaction by the feel of the wheel in the ditch through the hydraulic controls of the machine.
Utility Contractors , Contractors and Municipalities are using compaction wheels for their trench compaction needs.
Wheel compaction is faster and more effective than a vibratory machine. Greater lift (material in a trench to compact) thicknesses are possible with a compaction wheel.
Soil Bridging is less likely to occur with a Compaction Wheel. Vibratory machines compact from the top down leaving unbroken clay or soil with voids below the surface. Compaction wheels work from the bottom up, eliminating bridging while breaking soil and filling in the voids. The mixing and kneading action of the wheel produces a more uniform soil consistency for better compaction.
The open-rim design allows maximum penetration through the lift, with standard densities achieved in 6-10 passes under normal soil conditions; the wheel processes the levels of the material as it compacts.
• Wheels do more with less wear and tear on the operator and machine.
• Vibration from vibratory machines can loosen joints in water, gas and sewer lines as well as damaging nearby slabs, foundations or electronical equipment. This is not a problem with the smooth operation of a compaction wheel
• Heavy clay most often can not be torn apart by vibration. The aggressive shearing action of a wheel easily breaks up hard soil and/or clay, so that they can be intermixed into the rest of the fill soil.
• With a compaction wheel you get the same compaction with a fast or slow motion. Speed of travel is critical with vibratory equipment, too little time means poor compaction, while too much is inefficient. Six to eight passes usually produce the required densities, in less time than the same compaction with a vibratory compactor.
Compaction Wheels assist with the Following : Safety - Speed - Efficiency - Effectiveness - Productivity
• Compaction Wheels solve safety concerns over "men in the trench" regulations.
• Compaction wheels increase safety by operating the equipment outside the trench.
• Compaction Wheels, requiring no special hydraulics or systems for power, can increase compaction productivity by 75% or more.
• Compaction Wheels are engineered and designed to withstand the impact and thrust load demanded by the equipment its being used on.
• Compaction Wheel adds versatility to existing equipment already on the job.
• Test have shown that Compaction wheels can often reach lift thickness in excess of 12" to 24" for backhoes or 24" to 48" for excavators, even in a variety of soil conditions.
FELCO COMPACTION WHEELS
FELCO COMPACTION WHEELS
Felco Wheel Compactors combine the compaction performance of our proven tamping pad roller design and reliable Sealed Journal Bearing within a rigid frame. The specially designed and positioned tamping pads provide optimal compaction in a wide variety of soil conditions.
We also offer segmented and sheep’s foot wheel styles. Felco Wheel Compactors use a proven Sealed Journal Bearing.
The strength of this axle assembly, combined with its maintenance-free design (no lubrication, no adjustments), provides for greater performance and less downtime due to its ability to withstand heavy use.
We custom build every set of ears to match each excavator’s OEM specs or to adapt to your brand of quick coupler for excavators and large backhoe-loaders. Replaceable scraper teeth are standard on each style of Wheel Compactor.
