High Performance Percussion Rammers
High Performance Percussion Rammers MBW approaches rammer development aggressively. We attack high maintenance issues usually associated with this product type. The MBW delivery system is the lowest friction, heat, and maintenance percussion unit in the industry. Less friction, heat and wear in the delivery system translates into lower continuous horsepower demands to keep the rammer running. That means fewer engine problems and longer engine life. Bellows failures are reduced by as much as 90% with MBW¹s custom manufactured 4-ply, steel reinforced, vulcanized rubber bellows.

MBW addresses maintenance issues on throttle systems, tamping shoes, fuel tanks, gearboxes, shock mounts, proper engine rpm, and we answer the question as to when your service staff should perform routine maintenance.

While MBW rammers are decidedly high performance, the thing that truly separates our rammers from the competition is an unrelenting, aggressive attack on the industry¹s outstanding problems with rammers.

Hardest Hitting, Longest Lasting Vibratory Plates
Hardest Hitting ... MBW Vibratory Plates are designed for consistent compaction performance. These plates are the longest lasting in the industry, with unsurpassed exciter quality, including extra heavy duty housings, precision-matched bearings, custom lubricants and precision-ground ductile eccentric shafts. Additional high quality features include aircraft-quality shock absorbers, custom-designed centrifugal clutches and stress-relieved fabrications of premium steel. Most models offer double isolated, reversible shock absorbing handles. In vibratory plates, the performance leader is MBW.

Rollers
MBW Rollers Product Line MBW has offered Vibratory Rollers of various types and sizes since the early 1970s. In 2003, MBW takes a bold step. We are discontinuing our walk-behind trench and general purpose rollers in favor of our patented and unique roller designs that make so much more sense for our customers. Why do EXA and ATS(P) designs make more sense? There are 5 criterion by which rollers should be judged:

1. Cost
EXA and ATS(P) rollers cost less than walk-behind models. The difference can be as much as 70% less than a remote controlled trench roller!

2. Maintenance
Walk-behind rollers, especially trench rollers, are among the highest maintenance machinery in the construction industry. Maintenance is so high that many equipment dealers have simply gotten out of the walk-behind, remote control roller business. EXAs and ATS(P)s are brutally simple machines. And they are built to take the punishment. In fact, the ATS(P) is among MBW¹s lowest maintenance products. The EXA¹s record is nearly as good, although MBW recommends a yearly replacement of all shock mounts due to the incredibly high compaction forces at work in these units.

3. Productivity
Words fail to adequately describe productivity benefits. ATS(P) models are 200 to 300% more productive than walk-behind units in most applications. EXAs increase productivity by 500 to 600% over trench rollers and can positively affect overall trenching productivity by up to 15%!

4. Range of Application
EXAs in particular, enjoy a further and very significant advantage in that they will effect good compaction on the full range of soil types. The vibratory action of an EXA is an excellent fit for granular and mixed soils. The static forces of an EXA (up to 30,000 lbs.) concentrate more compressive energy in a relatively small footprint than any other soil compactor. The EXA handles all soils, so users are relieved of the need to own multiple compaction devices for varying soil conditions.

5. Operator Safety
The EXA keeps personnel out of the trench while the surrounding soils are being backfilled, leveled, compressed and vibrated. The EXA is the safest method of trench compaction. The ATS(P) accomplishes a similar level of safety on above ground compaction sites. The operator sits in the protected cab of a skid-steer loader during the entire compaction operation.

Walk-Behind Power Trowel
Walk-Behind Power TrowelMBW Walk-Behind Power Trowels are the lowest maintenance and longest lived power trowels available today. These rugged machines now feature safety rings to protect an operator's hands or feet from blade contact during operation. The safety rings are in addition to MBW trowels' standard guard rings that also increase safety as well as provide concentricity for maximum productivity and even finishes.

Other features include an over-built gear box with ground journal bearings, one piece worm shaft, and heavy duty hub and flange; a handle six inches longer than most competitors for greater leverage; and the industry's strongest spider assembly with teflon-lined, steel arm bore inserts that will not pound out. The blade arms are milled for precise blade alignment to eliminate wobbling and enable consistent finishes.

MBW Power Trowel options offer a Blitzpitch blade tilting device; custom blades (finish, combo or snap-on float); adjustable guard ring for edging; and a heavy duty kit to increase overall weight.

ScreeDemon
When MBW develops a new product, we look for deficiencies in product already in the marketplace. Portable wet screeds suffered 4 serious shortcomings:

Mechanical
Wet screeds were prone to high maintenance, especially in connection to drive mechanisms between the engine and exciter. The ScreeDemon has no flex or rigid shaft connection. A simple, durable, low cost rubber isolator drives the eccentric.

Functional
Most screed and screed bar combinations produce irregular vibration along the length of the screed bar. Not only is the concrete exposed to highly variable levels of vibration but cream levels vary from spot to spot along the screed bar. The back-to-back triangular construction of the ScreeDemon bar is extremely rigid and minimizes variability in the transmission of vibration.
Most Screeds bolt to their screed bars. Hardware threads are compromised by the concrete and assembling or removing the screed becomes such a problem that crews often don't disassemble for cleaning or transport. The ScreeDemon simply clamps to the specially designed bar. No holes to weaken the screed bar. No threads to complicate assembly/disassembly. The ScreeDemon goes together and comes apart in seconds.

Operator Health & Safety
All wet screeds tested by MBW exposed operators to excessive hand/arm vibration. The ScreeDemon's patent pending mount retention method enables use of low durometer isolators without loss of operator control. Hand/arm vibration is 50 to 90% lower than competitive screeds.

Extra rigid, double triangular, magnesium screed bar:

bulletminimizes variability in vibration
bulletclamps to ScreeDemon - no holes or hardware through bar
bulletis attached or removed from screed in seconds for cleaning/transport
bulletallows for offsetting of screed for working under protrusions
