When it comes to earthmoving and excavation, excavator compaction wheels are essential attachments for compacting soil, aggregate, or other materials efficiently. At RSBM, we offer two types of compaction wheels that stand out for their excellent performance: the Drum Compaction Wheel and the Separated Wheels Compaction Wheel. Whether you’re working on road construction, airport runways, or building foundations, these compaction wheels provide superior results and are adaptable to various terrains and materials. In this article, we’ll explore the features and applications of these best-selling compaction wheels.
1. Drum Compaction Wheel
The Drum Compaction Wheel is designed to deliver effective, high-speed compaction for large-scale projects. This attachment is built to compress materials such as soil, sand, and crushed aggregates, ensuring a solid, uniform surface.
Features:
- Efficient Compaction
The drum compaction wheel is engineered to achieve a high degree of compaction with fewer rolling passes. Thanks to its large mass and specialized surface design, it ensures that the material is compacted more efficiently, saving both time and fuel during the compaction process. - Uniform Pressure
The structure and shape of the drum wheel are designed to distribute pressure evenly across the surface. This ensures that the compacted material has consistent flatness and reduces the chances of future uneven settlement. Uniform compaction is critical for maintaining the integrity of roadways, foundations, and other construction projects. - Adaptable to Various Materials
The drum compaction wheel is highly versatile and works well with a range of materials including clay, sand, and crushed stone aggregates. Its adaptability makes it suitable for different environments and construction needs, from roadbeds to building foundations.
Applications:
Road Construction
The drum compaction wheel for excavators is a go-to tool in road construction projects, particularly in highway and expressway development. Whether you’re compacting the roadbed, base layer, or surface layer, this attachment ensures the road’s load-bearing capacity and long-term durability.
Airport Runway Construction
Airport runways demand extremely high standards of flatness and compaction to ensure safe aircraft takeoff and landing. The drum compaction wheel meets these stringent requirements by providing consistent compaction of both soil and asphalt layers, ensuring runway safety and longevity.
Large-Scale Building Foundation
For large buildings, a strong and stable foundation is critical. The drum compaction wheel effectively compacts the soil beneath the foundation, ensuring stability and increasing the foundation’s load-bearing capacity. This is essential for the long-term stability and safety of the structure.
2. Separated Wheels Compaction Wheel
The Separated Wheels Compaction Wheel, also known as a slice rock compaction wheel, is designed for more rugged terrains and complex compaction jobs. This tool excels in areas where the surface is uneven or rocky, making it a valuable attachment in mining fields, quarries, and mountain road construction.
Features:
- Adaptable to Complex Terrain
The sheet structure of the separated wheels compaction wheel allows it to conform better to rugged, uneven terrain, such as rocky or broken surfaces. This ensures that the compaction is effective even on challenging landscapes. - Enhanced Grip
Each individual wheel slice is designed to penetrate into gaps between rocks or loose materials. This increases friction with the ground, improving the compaction effect and reducing the chances of slippage, especially on loose or uneven surfaces. - Self-Cleaning Ability
As the compaction wheel works, the spaces between the wheel slices allow soil, rocks, and other debris to fall away easily. This prevents material buildup, which could otherwise reduce the compaction effect or increase wear on the wheel.
Applications:
Mining Fields
In mining operations, the separated wheels compaction wheel is used to compact materials such as crushed ore, slag, and other byproducts. By compacting the ground effectively, it helps improve the mine’s working conditions and enhances the efficiency of transporting materials.
Quarry Operations
Quarries often have areas where large quantities of stone are piled up or transported. The separated wheels compaction wheel effectively compacts these materials, ensuring stability in the work area and improving overall safety and efficiency in mining and transportation operations.
Mountain Road Construction
Building roads in mountainous regions can be particularly challenging due to the rocky terrain. The separated wheels compaction wheel is ideal for these conditions, as it can compact rocky surfaces effectively, ensuring a stable road foundation and improving the quality and safety of the roadway.
