Abstract

A compaction system has a compaction device with an electric motor for generating a compaction movement, an energy device for providing electric energy for the electric motor, a measurement device for measuring the current drawn by the electric motor, and an evaluation device for evaluating the current draw as measured by the measurement device and for determining, from this determination, the compaction progress in the medium being compacted. The evaluation device is arranged at least partly in an external device, spatially separate from the energy device and/or from the compaction device.

Claims11

Dependent claims

A compaction system for the compaction of a medium, comprising:

a compaction device with an electric motor that is configured to generate a compaction movement;
an energy device that is configured to provide electric energy for the electric motor;
a measurement device that is configured to measure a current drawn by the electric motor;
and
an evaluation device that is configured to evaluate the current draw as measured by the measurement device and to determine, from the evaluation, a compaction progress of the medium being compacted;
wherein
the evaluation device is arranged at least partly in an external device that is spatially separate from the energy device and/or from the compaction device.
