BOMAG’s BVP 10/30 single direction vibratory plate offers high performance in a compact frame

172 BOMAG claims high performance for its new single direction vibratory plate. The compact BVP 10/30 unit is said to be the lightest compactor in its class according to the firm. Weighing just over 46kg, the unit has been designed for easy transport vehicle loading and unloading. Its narrow plate is just 300mm wide and allows it to be used for compacting confined spaces and right up to corners. Despite its compact design however the unit can deliver a compaction force of 10kN, suiting it to duties in earthworks and asphalt patching projects.
