APU3050e - 30 kN Reversible vibratory plate with battery drive: Maintenance-free and efficient thanks to direct drive
The APU3050e is a technological milestone: It is the first reversible vibratory plate in the world equipped with a direct drive without V-belt and thus provides high efficiency during compaction as well as complete freedom from maintenance. The emission-free drive system as well as low overall height make it an ideal compaction machine for trench shoring. It possesses excellent handling and maneuverability on soil and asphalt and offers high operator comfort, for example by the sturdy, integrated wheel set and the continuously variable forward and reverse speed.

APU3050e Features & Benefits
Starts with a push of a button
- The battery can be started easily and reliably with the push of a button, even at low temperatures or at altitudes.
- Starting with the push of a button is much more convenient than starting with pulling a cable.
No exhaust emissions
- The operator is not exposed to any exhaust emissions. Therefore, the machine can be used without restrictions in trenches, tunnels and interior spaces. For the operator, work becomes more pleasant and healthy than with fuel-operated machines.
- Because the machines are emission-free, new applications open up in areas with special requirements for environmental friendliness.
Low overall height
- The APU series is characterized by its extremely low height and is therefore perfectly suited for use in confined spaces. Whether in trench shoring or other areas with limited space - the compact design enables flexible and efficient use.
All-round protection thanks to steel cover
- The upper mass is fully protected by a steel cover. This prevents damage.
Battery One battery system
- Battery One is a standardized and user-friendly battery system that focuses on the CO₂-free and sustainable use of construction equipment.
- Battery One batteries and battery chargers can not only be used in all battery-powered electric equipment by Wacker Neuson, but also in the construction equipment of other manufacturers. The idea: A battery standard simplifies construction site operations enormously, as only one battery and one charging system need to be considered in construction site logistics.
MORE FEATURES
COMFORT
Center pole
- The center pole is easily adjustable in height and can thus be adjusted very quickly to the size of the respective operator.
- The sturdy, self-engaging center pole lock offers a very fast and reliable safeguard for transport. This saves time.
Intuitive guide bar with continuously adjustable speed.
- A change of direction is possible with a high degree of comfort just by moving the handle. This way, the operator can keep working with both hands, without pressing additional buttons or cranking of handles.
- The speed is infinitely adjustable.
Low HAV (< 2.5 m/s²)
- The low hand-arm vibration values (< 2.5 m/s²) enable comfortable work.
- The operator has no time limit when working with this unit. This offers more flexibility in planning applications.
- Documentation effort for recording work times is eliminated with this unit.
Paving pad device easy to mount
- The paving pad device can be mounted quickly and easily, as it is simply just hooked in front onto the base plate and tightened with nuts.
- The paving pad device protects the paving stones from damage when vibrating.
EFFICIENCY
Integrated wheel set
- The vibratory plate has durable integrated transport wheels. This makes moving the machine on the job site easier. This saves time during the construction process.
Optimally shaped, fold-down lifting eye
- The lifting eye is shaped to make it suitable for various straps. The curvature of the eyelet ensures the optimal position of straps and chains.
- The lifting eye can be folded down. This enable the vibratory plate to attain compact dimensions and can be easily guided under low obstructions.
PERFORMANCE
Long running time with one battery charge
- One battery charge is usually enough for the typical tasks of a full workday. As a result, the work process doesn't have to be interrupted by recharging and not replacement battery is required.
Constant power output
- The machine performs consistently throughout the entire discharging phase of the battery- from the first to the last minute of work.
VARIETY
Removable battery
- The battery can be easily removed without tools and used in another machine. This makes it quick and easy to use a single battery for serveral machines on the construction site.
- It is possible to swap a discharged battery for a charged one very easily and quickly on the construction site.
QUALITY
Sturdy and durable
- The vibratory plate is made of heavy-duty, wear resistant materials. Due to this, it achieves a long service life. For example, the base plate is made of nodular cast iron (GJS700).
- Even after a longer operating time, the vibratory plate reaches a high resale value. Investment in this machine is thus very economical.
MAINTENANCE
Maintenance-free electric motor
- Maintenance work is completely eliminated compared to combustion engines For example, there are no problems with dirt accumulation or inferior oil. This significantly reduces maintenance effort and costs over the long service life of the machine.
