Product catalog summary
Overview: In 2002, MBW shifted its focus from walk-behind rollers to roller attachments for skid-loaders, backhoes, and excavators to enhance productivity. The transition was driven by the inefficiency of walk-behind rollers due to their low mass. By using heavier host machines, productivity is significantly increased.
Productivity: The combination of higher mass and faster operating speeds of host machines results in a substantial productivity gain compared to traditional walk-behind rollers.
Versatility: MBW offers a broad line of compaction attachments suitable for various soil types and applications. These include static and vibratory wheels that can be mounted via pins or quick connect couplers.
Operator Safety: Compaction attachments allow operators to work from the safety of the host machine's cab, avoiding the need to enter trenches.
Maintenance and Life: MBW's compaction attachments are protected by multiple patents focusing on innovations that ensure reliability and longevity.
Cost Efficiency: MBW attachments are more cost-effective than trench and walk-behind rollers, offering up to ten times higher productivity and lower maintenance costs.
Static and Vibratory Wheels: MBW's static wheels are robustly built to support conversion to vibratory wheels. The vibratory wheels feature a redesigned frame, improved suspension, and lower operating temperatures.
Universal Vibratory Wheels (UVW): Recommended for excavators in the 18K to 60K range, UVWs outperform other trench compaction methods. They offer features like interchangeable wheel widths, cool running exciter systems, and quick setup options.
Applications: UVWs are ideal for trenching operations and slope compaction, significantly enhancing productivity in these areas.
EXA Series: Introduced in 1995, the EXA Series provided significant gains in soil compaction productivity. The EXAL18 and EXA18 models remain in production, suitable for mini-excavators and larger machines, respectively.
Specifications: Detailed specifications for various models are provided, including operating weight, working width, amplitude, centrifugal force, exciter speed, flow requirement, and pressure required.

static and boom vibratory wheel-2

In 2002 MBW discontinued production of walk-behind rollers … our focus shifted to roller attachments for skid-loaders, backhoes and excavators. Our reasoning was straight forward … U N I V E R S A L UNIVERSAL V I B R AT O R Y UVW BOOM MOUNTED VIBRATORY WHEELS PRODUCTIVITY In geo-technical terms, walk-behind rollers are inefficient compactors due to low machine mass. By coupling a vibratory roller with a much heavier host machine, mass is dramatically improved. Moreover, the operating or cycle speed of host machines is faster than self-contained walk-behind rollers. The combined effect of higher...

V I B R AT O R Y WHAT APPLICATIONS ARE BEST SUITED TO UVW VIBRATORY ROLLERS? Trenching Operations UVWs remove the compaction bottleneck in trenching applications. The result is an overall increase in trench work productivity. Slope Compaction UVWs are ideally suited to the compaction of slopes. UVWs are the preferred means of compacting the sloped sides and bottom of irrigation canals to reduce seepage. ADDITIONAL FEATURES Backfill leveling blade integral to all UVWs. Simple rotation of the UVW positions blade to quickly and uniformly spread backfill material. Interchangeable 24 and 36 inch wide...

The EXA Series of Boom Mounted Vibratory Wheels were introduced in 1995 and provided substantial gains in soil compaction productivity. In 2007, the larger EXA models were replaced by the more versatile UV Series of Vibratory Wheels, but two popular EXA models remain in production. The EXAL18 is a light weight compactor suited to larger mini-excavators and rubber tired backhoes. The EXA18 is a heavily built vibratory wheel best suited to excavators in the 20,000 to 60,000 lb. range. EXA VIBRATORY WHEELS 18 INCH WIDE BOOM MOUNTED VIBRATORY WHEELS EXA18 Both models feature a frame free drum width...
