Ammann 52/75, 58/75 Reversible Vibratory Plate Compactors

Jan. 9, 2025
Models feature new engine configurations.

Ammann 52/75 and APR 58/75 Reversible Vibratory Plate Compactors have working widths of 17.7-inches that can be expanded with extensions of 3-inches or 5.9-inches. Varied weights and therefore compaction outputs separate the machines.climb grades as steep as 30%.

New protective tubes guard the plates instead of hoods, improving air circulation, and making it possible to utilize diesel engines that could otherwise overheat. A diesel engine with DPF is available for those customers who face specific environmental standards or work in confined spaces.

The new APR 52/75 and APR 58/75 offer four engine configurations:
  • Hatz 1B40 diesel e-start (current EMEA)
  • Hatz 1B50E diesel e-start EPA (current US)
  • Hatz 1B50E diesel e-start EPA with DPF
  • Honda GX390 petrol hand-start

A smaller battery performs comparably to its larger predecessor, according to the company. The battery has jump-start capability for charging during longer standing times.

The twin-shaft exciter unit continues to be a key advantage for the plates, according to the company. Shaft positioning enables the operator to effortlessly change directions. The smooth, variable hydrostatic unit allows the machines to move easily in forward and reverse. On-the-spot vibration can be utilized in particularly challenging areas.
