Multiquip Vibratory Plate Compactors

Multiquip has announced the new MVC-80 Series of four vibratory plate compactors that reduce vibration by 50 percent when compared to predecessor models. The reduction comes courtesy of an innovative new antivibration handle system (AVS) that significantly reduces operator fatigue while boosting productivity.

With centrifugal force of 2,925 pounds, the economically priced MVC-80s are ideally suited to compacting granular soils and asphalt. At maximum speed, the unit can compact up to 72 feet of material per minute.

These forward plate compactors are offered with 5.7-horsepower Honda and 5.5-horsepower Robin gasoline engines and have exciter speeds of 5,580 rpm. The MVC-80 Series is fitted with a long-lasting and easy-to-clean steel baseplate.

Other standard features include a 13.7-quart plastic water tank that is easy to remove and a lifting bale for pickup. The four models in the MVC-80 Series range in weight from 177 pounds to 180 pounds.
