Definition of Tamping Rammer
The Mikasa MT-70H tamping rammer is a powerful compacting
tool capable of applying a tremendous force in consecutive
impacts to a soil surface. Its applications include soil compacting
for road, embankments and reservoirs as well as backfilling for
gas pipelines, water pipelines and cable installation work.
The impact force of the MT-70H levels and uniformly compacts
voids between soil particles to increase dry density.
Circular motion is converted to create impact force. The MT-70 H
tamping rammer develops a powerful compacting force at the
foot of the rammer. To maintain optimum performance, proper
operation and service are essential.
Construction of Tamping Rammer
The Mikasa MT-70H is equipped with an air cooled, two cycle
gasoline engine. Transmission of the power takes place by
increasing the engine speed to engage the centrifugal clutch.

thae tamper foot.
