Portable Plate Compactor Machine Plate Road Pavement

This plate compactor is used for compacting soil, sand, gravel and asphalt in road pavement, sidewalks, trenches, foundations and landscaping to create a stable, even surface.

Available models are SC-50, SC-60, SC-77, SC-77W, SC-90, SC-100 and SC-140.

Plate sizes (L×W mm) by model are: SC-50 535×290, SC-60 570×370, SC-77 570×370, SC-77W 560×475, SC-90 570×450, SC-100 708×450, SC-140 630×500. Net weights (kg) are approximately: SC-50 51, SC-60 69, SC-77 75, SC-77W 80, SC-90 80, SC-100 97, SC-140 110.

All models deliver about 5,600 vpm (vibrations per minute). Higher vibration frequency improves compaction effectiveness and helps achieve better density in granular and asphalt layers.

Centrifugal force (kN) by model: SC-50 10 kN, SC-60 10 kN, SC-77 10.5 kN, SC-77W 13.5 kN, SC-90 13 kN, SC-100 20 kN, SC-140 30 kN. Higher force provides deeper and stronger compaction.

Typical travel speeds are 15–20 m/min for most models. The SC-60 has a higher range of about 20–25 m/min.

All models have a limited grade ability of approximately 20%.

Engine options include gasoline engines: Lifan 154F (1.4 kW / 3 HP), Honda GX160 (4.1 kW / 5.5 HP), Robin EY20-3C (3.7 kW / 5 HP), Lifan G160F (4.1 kW / 5.5 HP); and a diesel option: Diesel D173F (4.4 kW / 6.0 HP). Fuel type depends on the selected engine (gasoline or diesel).

Select based on plate size (coverage per pass), centrifugal force (compaction depth and intensity), weight and portability, and engine power. For larger areas and deeper compaction choose higher-force/heavier models (SC-100, SC-140); for confined spaces and greater portability choose smaller models (SC-50, SC-60).

All models use a recoil (manual pull) start system.

Packing sizes (L×W×H mm) by model are: SC-50 740×360×550, SC-60 890×430×660, SC-77 850×530×670, SC-77W 880×530×670, SC-90 580×470×650, SC-100 700×480×580, SC-140 670×500×800.

Regular checks include engine oil level and changes, air filter cleaning/replacement, fuel system inspection, tightening bolts, cleaning the plate and vibration housing, and checking for loose or worn parts. Follow the engine and machine manual for specific intervals.

Wear hearing and eye protection, safety boots and gloves. Do not operate on slopes steeper than the 20% gradeability, avoid loose clothing near moving parts, keep bystanders away, and ensure stable footing when operating or transporting the machine.

Yes — plate compactors like these are suitable for compacting asphalt and repairing pavements when using the correct model and technique for the material and layer thickness.
