The Hydraulic Plate Compactor is a powerful attachment that transforms your excavator into an efficient soil compaction machine. Designed to handle demanding applications such as trench work, backfill compaction, and slope stabilization, this tool significantly improves productivity and compaction quality on any construction site.
Unlike traditional rammers or walk-behind compactors, hydraulic compactors are safer, faster, and capable of working in deeper, more confined areas without risking operator fatigue. YG engineers its plate compactors to deliver excellent vibration force with low maintenance and high durability.

- Suitable for landscaping, municipal work, and light-duty trenching


Applications of Hydraulic Plate Compactors
YG designs Hydraulic Plate Compactors as versatile attachments for use in a wide range of construction and infrastructure projects.
- Soil Compaction: Effectively compacting soil for foundations, trenches, and landscaping projects.
- Asphalt Compaction: Achieving optimal density and smoothness in asphalt paving applications.
- Gravel and Aggregate Compaction: Ensuring stability and load-bearing capacity for road construction and base layers.
- Trench Compaction: Efficiently compacting soil in trenches for pipelines, utilities, and foundations.
- Slope Compaction: Providing a safe and effective method for compacting soil on slopes and inclines.
- Pile Driving Assistance: Some models can be used to assist in driving smaller piles and posts.


Working Principle Of A Hydraulic Plate Compactor
The hydraulic plate compactor works by converting hydraulic energy from the excavator into mechanical vibration and impact force. This energy is transmitted through the compactor’s steel plate, which rapidly vibrates and compacts the soil beneath.
Basic operation steps:
- Attach the compactor to the excavator’s boom or stick using a quick coupler.
- Connect the hydraulic lines to activate the vibration mechanism.
- Position the plate flat on the ground where compaction is needed.
- Apply downward pressure from the excavator’s arm while the compactor vibrates.
- Move methodically across the area to ensure even compaction.
The result is a solid, uniform base ready for further construction or paving.
For hydraulic plate compactors for mini excavator models, the working principle remains the same, but the size and weight of the compactor are scaled down to match the capabilities of smaller excavators, offering efficient compaction in more confined areas. The Hydraulic Compactor for Excavator generally utilizes a larger base plate and more powerful hydraulic motor to achieve higher compaction forces suitable for larger-scale projects.
