Soil compactor
Compacting granular fill before foundations, slabs and hardstanding. A plate compactor is at its best in sand, gravel and crushed stone, which is most of what UAE sites are built on.
Vibratory plate compactor machines for soil, sub-base and interlock bedding. Four weight classes, each available in petrol or diesel with configurable engines, backed by 48-hour UAE delivery, one-year warranty and full workshop repair from our Ajman HQ.
A plate compactor machine is the cheapest insurance on a UAE site. Sand and crushed stone look solid when they are levelled and are nothing of the sort until the voids are driven out of them. Skip that and the interlock dips, the slab cracks at the edge, and the road base rutted under the first loaded truck.
AMACO supplies the Baylorr vibratory plate compactor range from our Ajman warehouse — 90, 120, 160 and 200 kg, each available in petrol or diesel, with engines that can be configured to match the fleet you already run. Every machine ships with a one-year warranty and a workshop that repairs what it sells.
Most of a compaction machine's working life on a UAE site falls into four jobs. The same walk behind plate compactor covers all of them.
Compacting granular fill before foundations, slabs and hardstanding. A plate compactor is at its best in sand, gravel and crushed stone, which is most of what UAE sites are built on.
Consolidating the base course on access roads, car parks and internal site roads before the wearing course goes down.
Sub-base layers under roads and yards, where a soft spot left now becomes a settlement crack later.
Bedding sand under interlocking pavers and kerbs — the job that fills most plate compactor hours on UAE residential work.
The range runs across four weight classes, and every one of them is available in petrol or diesel. Weight is what sets compaction depth, so size the machine to the layer you are compacting rather than to the biggest number in the catalogue — a heavier plate on bedding sand only makes it harder to manoeuvre.
The general-purpose machine. Bedding sand under interlock and kerbs, backfill around slabs, light sub-base on driveways and yards.
A step up in depth without a step up in handling. Where the 90 kg needs too many passes but a 160 kg is more machine than the access allows.
Road base that will carry loaded traffic, and large open areas where passes cost real time.
The heaviest of the range, for deep lifts and specified compaction on road and infrastructure work.
Fuel is a choice on every size rather than a property of a particular model, and the engine itself can be configured to match what your fleet already runs.
Compaction force decides how deep the machine works; plate size decides how fast it covers ground. The two configurations below are the ones currently in the catalogue and show either side of that trade-off — both weight classes are also available in the other fuel, and the other sizes on request.
The general-purpose machine. Small enough for one person to handle around a villa plot, heavy enough for bedding sand and light sub-base. This is the diesel build, which owes nothing to the site supply; the same 90 kg class is available in petrol.
Double the weight and double the force of the 90 kg machine, on a 650 × 500 mm plate. This is the one for road base that will carry loaded traffic, where the lighter machine would need more passes to reach the same density. Shown here in the Honda petrol build; diesel is available in the same class.
The two machines are not interchangeable, and picking wrong is the most common reason a compaction test fails. A plate spreads its force across a wide base and vibrates fast — that is what granular material wants. A rammer concentrates high impact through a small foot, which is what cohesive clay and silt need, and it fits in a trench where a plate cannot turn.
Open area in sand or gravel: plate compactor. Narrow trench, or clay: see tamping rammers. Large areas of road base or asphalt: walk behind roller compactors.
Every plate compactor delivered within 48 hours of order confirmation. Dubai and Sharjah orders typically arrive next-day.
Every new Baylorr compaction machine ships with a one-year warranty on manufacturing defects, handled at our own Ajman workshop rather than through an agent overseas.
