Introduction
MBW Inc. has developed the ERGO-TAMP, a pneumatic tamper designed to reduce hand/arm vibration by up to 70%. This innovation addresses the high vibration levels associated with traditional pneumatic tampers, which can lead to health issues such as white finger and carpal tunnel syndrome.

Specifications and Features
The ERGO-TAMP features a vibration absorption system that adapts to varying compaction conditions and is cooled by a constant flow of compressed air. An optional trigger guard is available to prevent accidental activation. The product is patented in the U.S. with international patents pending.

Usage and Benefits
With the increasing trend of "keyhole" operations, which involve smaller excavation sizes, pneumatic tampers like the ERGO-TAMP are becoming essential. These tampers concentrate compaction energy on a small surface area, which can lead to soil displacement. The ERGO-TAMP mitigates this issue by reducing vibration during extended compaction times.

Recommendations
MBW recommends using the Soil Compaction Supervisor (SCS2) to enhance compaction performance. The SCS2 monitors P-wave amplitude growth during compaction and signals when optimal compaction is achieved, thus eliminating guesswork and ensuring protocol adherence.

Conclusion
The ERGO-TAMP offers significant improvements in user safety and compaction efficiency, making it a valuable tool for utility companies and municipalities engaged in small-scale excavation projects.

Catalog excerpts
VIBRATION SUPPRESSOR ERGO-TAMP MBW has tamed one of the industry’s most disliked and physically abusive compaction tools. Pneumatic Tampers (also known as “Pole Tampers”, “Pogo Sticks” and “Bouncing Betties”) produce hand/arm vibration levels that rank among the highest in the industry. Periodic exposure to excessive vibration is known to be a contributing factor in the development of white finger, carpel tunnel syndrome, arthritis and other chronic ailments. The ERGO-TAMP reduces hand/arm vibration up to 70%, allowing for some variation as conditions of compaction change. The vibration absorption...
