Derette skid steer loader with vibrating plow
A skid steer loader is a versatile piece of compact construction machinery that can quickly switch between various work attachments to meet different construction needs. A vibrating plow is one such attachment that can be installed on a skid steer loader, playing a crucial role in the process of laying cables. It is primarily used for digging into the ground, creating a passage for cable laying. Specifically, through its unique design and working mechanism, it effectively cuts through soil and uses the power of vibration to loosen the soil, thereby reducing resistance as the equipment moves forward and allowing for more efficient trenching. This tool is especially suitable for scenarios requiring the laying of underground cables, particularly in farmlands, grasslands, or other vegetation-covered areas. It can complete trenching with minimal surface disruption, preserving the integrity of the landscape.
The advantages of using a skid steer loader equipped with a vibrating ripper include:
Efficient Trenching: The blade of the vibrating plow is connected to a vibrating box and cuts narrow trenches into the ground through high-speed back-and-forth movements. Its vibrating function allows the blade to penetrate turf and soil more easily, making the excavation faster and more efficient compared to traditional static plows. This significantly saves on construction time and labor costs. For instance, when laying small cables or pipes, the vibrating plow can quickly cut a suitable trench into the ground for the cable or pipe to be buried.
Minimal Surface Disruption: The trenches it creates are very narrow, causing minimal disruption to the surface. Post-construction surface recovery is relatively simple; typically, just a few passes over the trench with a tractor tire are enough to return the ground to its original level without requiring extensive backfilling and surface restoration work as in traditional trenching methods. This is highly beneficial for protecting the environment and landscape around the construction site.
Facilitates Installation of Underground Utilities: It is commonly used for laying various types of small underground utilities such as irrigation systems, CCTV cables, coaxial cables, Ethernet cables, low-voltage power lines, drainage pipes, and gas pipelines. During the laying process, as the vibratory unit moves forward, cables or pipes can be laid into the trench from reels or similar devices, achieving an efficient and convenient installation of underground utilities.
