Compaction Meter Value is an accelerometer-based system that provides an indication of material stiffness. The system is available on smooth drum vibratory soil compactors and tandem vibratory asphalt compactors. It measures only when the vibratory system is active, and provides a unitless value derived from the recorded data that indicates composite stiffness.
Cat Compaction with Machine Drive Power (MDP) is an energy-based measurement system that correlates compaction with rolling resistance to provide an indication of soil stiffness. An optional mapping system helps operators visualize work as it occurs.
