Altrad Belle PCX 20/45 18″ Heavyweight Compaction Plate

The Altrad Belle PCX 20/45 represents the pinnacle of heavyweight compaction technology, delivering uncompromising performance for the most challenging soil compaction applications. This powerful 18-inch compaction plate is specifically engineered for demanding projects including new developments, repair work, and maintenance operations where superior compaction force is essential for achieving optimal ground bearing capacity and long-term stability.

Hard-Hitting Performance Designed as a true heavyweight champion, the PCX 20/45 generates exceptional compaction force to tackle the most stubborn materials with ease. This “hard hitting” capability makes it the ideal solution for compacting large aggregates, dense cohesive materials, and high moisture content soils that would challenge lesser machines. The substantial compaction energy ensures thorough consolidation even in difficult ground conditions where standard plates fail to achieve adequate results.

User-Friendly Operation Despite its heavyweight classification and powerful performance, the PCX 20/45 maintains exceptional user-friendliness through intelligent design features. Advanced engineering ensures that while the machine delivers professional-grade compaction force, operators benefit from refined control characteristics, balanced handling, and ergonomic operation that reduces fatigue during extended use periods.

Specialist Material Handling Expertly engineered to excel with challenging materials, the PCX 20/45 demonstrates particular effectiveness when working with:

• Large Aggregates: Superior mass and compaction force ensure effective consolidation of substantial stone and hardcore materials
• Cohesive Materials: Optimal frequency and amplitude settings break down clay-based soils and achieve proper compaction density
• High Moisture Content Soils: Enhanced performance characteristics maintain effectiveness even in wet or saturated ground conditions where other plates struggle

Development and Infrastructure Applications The PCX 20/45 proves invaluable across diverse project types:

• New Developments: Provides the foundation compaction quality essential for residential, commercial, and industrial construction projects
• Repair Operations: Delivers the power needed for effective reinstatement of excavated areas and utility trenches
• Maintenance Projects: Ensures professional-standard compaction for ongoing infrastructure maintenance and improvement works

18-Inch Advantage The generous 18-inch working width optimises productivity by covering substantial areas with each pass while maintaining the precision control required for detailed work around existing structures, utilities, and landscape features. This size represents the sweet spot between area coverage and manoeuvrability for heavyweight applications.

Professional Construction Standards Built to withstand the demanding conditions of commercial construction and civil engineering projects, the PCX 20/45 combines robust heavyweight construction with the reliability and durability that professional contractors depend on for consistent project delivery and equipment longevity.

Heavyweight Class Leadership As a true heavyweight class machine, the PCX 20/45 provides contractors with the confidence that even the most challenging compaction requirements can be met with a single, versatile piece of equipment that delivers both power and precision across diverse applications.
