Unbeatable on flat surfaces and in trenches: the Ammann APH 110-95

The fully hydraulic APH 110-95 vibratory plate offers sensational strength combined with outstanding features that make it ideal for a vast range of different applications. High compaction performance together with compact dimensions make it equally suitable for work in trenches and on flat surfaces. And what’s more, the ACE compaction control system displays the degree of compaction in real time.

Weighing in at 795 kg and with a working width of 95 cm, the fully hydraulic APH 110-95 high-performance compactor is the most powerful machine in its category. It can be used for a range of classical applications such as earthworks, asphalting and paving as well as construction of paths, roads and railway tracks, backfilling, construction work on trenches, canals and gardens, landscaping work and foundation building. Outstanding running properties make it suitable for both trench and surface work. Compaction performance is displayed and measured in real time, so operators can see at a glance where the soil is already optimally compacted and where another pass is needed. This feature saves time, work effort and fuel – adding up to increased productivity. An automatic mode can be selected – especially useful for less experienced operators as the machine’s compaction performance is automatically adjusted downwards to guarantee optimum compaction results.

The reduced noise level and extremely low hand-arm vibrations make life easier for machine operators with no loss of performance. To ensure easy control of the powerhouse, Ammann’s engineers have designed the ergonomic guide handle with Orbitrol steering for exceptional agility and fatigue-free working. Thanks to stepless servo control for advance and reverse and an optimised baseplate, users need only apply the minimum of force to accurately guide and steer this flagship of the high-performance compaction range. The optional dead man’s handle provides additional comfort and safety for operators: customers are especially appreciative of this option for work on construction sites with limited space. When the electric sensors in the guide handle register contact by the operator, the hydraulics and therefore the exciter are activated; when the handles are released, the hydraulic system is immediately deactivated and the machine comes to a standstill after a few centimetres. The APH 110-95 is yet another demonstration of Ammann Compaction’s ability to develop new machines that strike the ideal balance between meeting user requirements and compliance with maximum quality and safety standards.
