Many developments and innovations followed. Today, just
as then, the cleanest rammers on the market bear the logo of
Wacker Neuson.
Battery-powered rammers
They are emission-free, cable-free and easy to operate: With the
two battery-powered rammers AS30e and AS50e, Wacker Neuson
once again proves its position as an innovative leader, because
they are completely free of emissions compared to other solutions
on the market. The smaller AS30e model is a special rammer for
compacting pipe spandrels. The AS50e can be used for all traditional
rammer work.
The battery is independent of the model and can be replaced in
a few quick steps without any additional tools. Because of the zero
emissions, both battery-powered rammers easily stand up to strict
requirements for urban construction areas or working in trenches.
A clean solution – BG Bau (a professional association for the
construction industry in Germany) also thinks so, which rewards the
battery-powered rammers from Wacker Neuson with an bonus for
occupational safety that is very attractive to the customer.
The two battery-powered rammers are characterised by their
low total operating costs, since typical maintenance work on
conventional rammers, such as on the carburetor, are not
applicable here.
Additional savings can be achieved when it comes to the energy
costs: Around 55% in energy costs can be saved by operation with
electricity. Wacker Neuson uses lithium iron phosphate batteries.
These are above all characterized by their long service life: Even after
1 500 charging cycles, at least 80% of the original battery capacity is
still available.
Another positive point is the high temperature stability at
operating temperatures between –10 and +50 degrees. This makes
it ideal for global application in various climate zones. A special
safety concept prevents the battery from self-igniting or catching
on fire if damaged.
Two-stroke rammers
The time-tested and proven, two-stroke rammers from Wacker
Neuson are not completely emission-free, but work with very low
emissions. The two-stroke models are driven by the WM 80 engine
that is specially designed and developed by Wacker Neuson, which,
thanks to its catalytic converter, falls well below all exhaust
standard limits.
A multi-stage air cleaner system efficiently cleans the intake
air, thereby ensuring the long-term operational readiness of the
rammer. The two-stroke rammers are therefore the gasoline vibratory
rammers with the lowest total emissions on the market.
The
CLEANEST RAMMERS
on the market
Low overall emissions at full power: Wacker Neuson
has the right model for all customer needs.
The topic of compaction has a long tradition at
Wacker Neuson. After all, Hermann Wacker invented
the rammer in the 1930s. The first rammer was
actually an electric rammer, but over the course of
time was replaced with combustion engines due to
the urge for more mobility.

Wacker Neuson makes this promise to customers world-
wide with a comprehensive product range of construction
and compact equipment, spare parts and services rendered.
Among other things, the product range includes internal
and external vibrators for concrete compaction, rammers,
vibratory plates and rollers for soil compaction, demolition
and cutting equipment, light towers and generators,
heaters and ventilation
equipment, as well as
excavators, wheel loaders,
telehandlers, skid steer
loaders and dumpers
in the field of compact
construction equipment.
Wacker Neuson has
always owed its leading
market position to
unconditional customer
orientation as well as the
reliability and power of
innovation of
its products.
