MBW's AP2000 is the only vibratory plate compactor specifically designed for asphalt applications. Frequency, amplitude, centrifugal force and mass are all established at optimal levels for maximum productivity on asphalt.

Further, the mechanical construction of the AP2000 is specific to this very demanding application. Stress relieved steel plate housings are crack resistant and provide long wear. Aluminum exciter housing dissipates heat rapidly and custom lubricants preserve bearing and seal integrity. The self cleaning plate prevents dirt build-up.

The GP2000 is a permutation of the AP2000 where frequency, amplitude, centrifugal force and mass are adjusted to provide optimal productivity in the compaction of sands and gravel. The GP2000 is capable of achieving excellent densities on lifts of granular soils up to 14" (36 cm)*.

• Both units available with either Honda or Robin engines
• Optional neoprene paving pad accessory for interlocking paving blocks

* Clean sand, optimum moisture. MBW recommends that lifts not exceed 12".

Designed for Asphalt Applications
Versitile compactor features a self-cleaning plate.
HARDEST HITTING, LONGEST LASTING

The GP3550 is a premium, high production compactor with life expectancy that runs to decades with reasonable maintenance. The deck features a full roll cage as standard equipment with provisions for a water tank for asphalt compaction on AP3550. The base plate is self-cleaning with an open sided plate design that allows material to flow out and away from the belt/pulley assembly during operation. Both models provide reduced hand/arm vibration, full roll cage protection, enhanced amplitude, faster travel speed and updated yet rugged appearance.

The R420, R421 & R440 Series Rammer are ideally suited for the compaction of granular, mixed, and cohesive soils in confined areas. A mainstay in contractor and municipal fleets, the R420 & R440 offer highly productive percussion rammers at less than 128 or 136 lbs. respectively. The contoured fuel tank provides the largest fuel capacity in its class and effectively baffles engine noise. Power is supplied by a 4-cycle Honda engine.

• Up to 3700 lbs (16.4 kN) of compaction force
• 4-cycle engine
• Elevated bellows placement for trench applications
• Polyethylene slide bearings provide minimal internal wear
• 10" or 11" high density, die cast aluminum tamping shoe
• 4" and 6" trench shoes available for the R420
  

MBW SCREEDEMON

SCREEDEMON CONCRETE SCREED
NEW PRODUCT!

SCREEDEMON CONCRETE SCREED
When MBW develops a new product, we look for deficiencies in products already in the marketplace. Portable wet screeds suffered 4 serious shortcomings:

Mechanical
Wet screeds were prone to high maintenance, especially in connection to drive mechanisms between the engine and exciter. The ScreeDemon has no metallic shaft connection. A simple, durable, low cost rubber isolator drives the eccentric.

Functional
Most screed and screed bar combinations produce irregular vibration along the length of the screed bar. Not only is the concrete exposed to highly variable levels of vibration but cream levels vary from spot to spot along the screed bar. The back-to-back triangular construction of the ScreeDemon bar is extremely rigid and minimizes variability in the transmission of vibration.

Most screeds bolt to their screed bars. Hardware threads are compromised by the concrete and assembling or removing the screed becomes such a problem that crews often don't disassemble for cleaning or transport. The ScreeDemon simply clamps to the specially designed bar. No holes to weaken the screed bar. No threads to complicate assembly/disassembly. The ScreeDemon goes together and comes apart in seconds.

Operator Health & Safety
All wet screeds tested by MBW exposed operators to excessive hand/arm vibration. The ScreeDemon's patent pending mount retention method enables use of low durometer isolators without loss of operator control. Hand/arm vibration is 50 to 90% lower than competitive screeds.
