How Does a Vibratory Plow Work?

edit

Companies across the irrigation industry and beyond typically depend on trenching machinery to get the job done. However, an alternate method has quickly been taking the industry by storm: vibratory plows. These machines are fast and cost-effective in comparison to traditional trenching methods.

In the latest blog post, we’ll discuss how vibratory plows work and how they differ from other trenching machinery. Reach out to our knowledgeable team today to learn more about these machines and discuss if they’re right for the needs of your business.

How Vibratory Plows Work

Vibratory plows all feature a blade that attaches to a shaker box. This box moves the blade back and forth at high speeds, allowing it to cut into the turf and soil. As the user moves forward, the vibratory plow follows to cut in the intended line and direction. 

The machine creates extremely narrow cuts to limit the damage to the ground surface. Using a vibratory plow typically helps the job get done quicker, easier, and less disruptive than allowed by other types of trenching equipment.

Vibratory Plows Vs. Trenching

Trenching is a highly effective method that many companies use across various industries. Commonly used to bury and install irrigation piping, electrical wiring, sewage lines, and more, trenching is a tried and tested method. However, trenching will typically leave significant scarring that can take months or even years to recover completely.

Vibratory plows provide companies with an alternative. These machines are much less intrusive and will yield similar results. Vibratory plows create very narrow trenches that do significantly less damage to the ground. They pull piping, wiring, lines, and more through an initial incision and maneuver it through the ground, limiting the damage to the turf, grass, and soil.

After completing the project, you’ll notice that the vibratory plow had minimal impact on the ground itself.
