Since the development of the first rammer by German engineer Herrmann Wacker in 1930, Wacker Neuson continues to develop and broaden its rammer portfolio – always connecting tradition and innovation. With its range of gasoline four-stroke-, two-stroke-, diesel- and battery-driven rammers, Wacker Neuson is able to provide a reliable high quality product for every area of application.

Wacker Neuson is well known for its compaction equipment, especially for its rammers. The ambition to deliver mature products that meet the needs of the customer led Wacker Neuson rammers to become the most widely sold rammers worldwide.

For applications in trenches and within buildings, the battery rammer AS50e can fully display its strength. Used for all traditional rammer work, the AS50e rammer provides safety for the operator as the unit is 100% emission-free and noise-reduced which is an important feature for all operators. The battery can be removed without tools so the operator can replace the discharged battery easily in a few simple steps. The runtime of the rammer is 30 continuous minutes which is usually sufficient to accomplish a full day’s work. Low operating costs are an additional advantage since the typical maintenance jobs of conventional rammers, for example maintenance work on the carburetor, are not required with the battery-powered rammer.

The time-tested and proven two-stroke rammers from Wacker Neuson work with very low emissions. The two-stroke models are driven by the WM80 engine that was specially designed and developed by Wacker Neuson, 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 Wacker Neuson two-stroke gasoline vibratory rammers boast the lowest total emissions on the market. Four models are currently available: the BS50-2, BS60-2, BS50-2plus as well as the BS60-2plus. A special feature of 2plus-rammers is the extra-large oil tank that only requires a top up after 120 hours of operation and is available with a lockable cover eliminating the risk of incorrect refueling. In summary, the two-stroke-rammers are developed for maximum productivity, performance and durability.

Wacker Neuson's four-stroke rammers impress everyday anew. Their high stroke energy, percussion rate, and long shoe stroke combined with a fast advanced travel achieves ideal compaction results. Intelligent features such as the integrated oil protection with automatic shutdown provide additional safety and user-friendliness. Furthermore, the first-class air filter leads to three times longer replacement intervals thereby extending the rammer’s service life and keeping maintenance costs to a minimum. Both four-stroke-rammer models, BS50-4As and BS60-4As, are ideal for cohesive soils and are easy-to-operate which is important for edge areas and round elements.

The DS70 diesel rammer convinces with its well-balanced weight distribution and its compact dimensions. Like the four-stroke rammers, it is ideal for the compaction of cohesive, mixed and coarse-grained soils. Thanks to its low Co emissions it is also suited for work in trenches.

Wacker Neuson rammers are the perfect partner for a variety of application areas. Whether operating in small trenches, indoors or on cohesive soil - there is always a suitable rammer for every challenge.
