Description

VP Series Vibratory Plates: Compact Power for Professional Compaction

High-Performance Compaction for Tight Spaces

The VP Series from Wacker Neuson delivers unmatched efficiency and durability for base preparation, asphalt repair, and soil stabilization. Built for contractors who demand consistent results, each vibratory plate compactor combines precision engineering with easy handling. Whether the task involves sidewalks, landscaping, driveways, or parking lots, the VP Series ensures powerful compaction in confined spaces where larger machines cannot reach.

Versatility and Superior Results

Contractors rely on the VP Series because it adapts to a wide range of applications. The specially shaped base plate glides smoothly along curbs, walls, and obstacles while producing even compaction. From granular soils to interlocking paving stones, these machines achieve the uniform finish professionals expect. With advanced balance and maneuverability, the compactor vibratory plate design saves time while improving compaction quality.

Performance Highlights

  • Smooth forward movement for fast, consistent compaction
  • Precision base plate for tight areas and curved edges
  • High efficiency across asphalt, soil, and paving stone projects

Durability with Wacker Neuson Engineering

Every Wacker Neuson plate compacter in the VP Series is engineered for longevity. A protective housing safeguards the V-belt while allowing quick adjustments, minimizing wear and extending machine life. Built from high-quality materials, these vibratory plates resist job site stress while delivering years of dependable service.

Built to Last

  • Wear-resistant components extend service intervals
  • Protective V-belt cover reduces downtime
  • Curved handle design enhances control and machine stability

Operator Comfort and Easy Handling

The VP Series prioritizes operator comfort without sacrificing power. Each machine features a low hand-arm vibration (HAV) handle, keeping vibration values below 5 m/s². Operators can therefore work longer shifts with reduced fatigue. The forward-swiveling control handle allows smooth maneuverability, while optional transport wheels make relocating the vibrating compactor quick and simple.

Operator Benefits

  • Low vibration handles improve long-term comfort
  • Forward-swiveling control handle ensures effortless guidance
  • Transport wheels allow one-person mobility across the job site

The Ultimate Vibratory Plate Compactor for Professionals

When construction teams require reliable performance in confined areas, the VP Series stands out as the ultimate solution. Its combination of compact power, operator comfort, and long-lasting durability makes it an indispensable tool. Whether used as a reversible plate compactor alternative for smaller areas or as a dedicated vibrating compactor for asphalt finishing, the VP Series consistently delivers high-quality compaction results.

Why Choose the VP Series?

  • Reliable performance in asphalt, soil, and base preparation
  • Durable construction with long service life
  • Comfortable, low-vibration operation for extended use
  • Easy transport and precise maneuverability
  • Trusted Wacker Neuson plate compacter quality

VP Series: Compact Strength for Every Job Site

For contractors and professionals seeking dependable results, the VP Series vibratory plates provide an ideal balance of power, efficiency, and comfort. With the strength of a vibratory plate compactor, the maneuverability of a compactor vibratory plate, and the trusted engineering of Wacker Neuson, this series sets the standard for compact compaction equipment.
