Abstract

A compactor system (10) includes a tipped drum (22) having a plurality of tips (26), and a drum axle (30) rotatably coupling the tipped drum (22) to a frame (12). The compactor system (10) further includes a sensor (32) configured to sense a parameter indicative of a height of the drum axle (30) above a surface of a material substrate, and an electronic control unit (40) configured to output a compaction progress signal responsive to inputs from the sensor (32). Related methods of preparing a work area with a compactor system (11), and determining a compaction state of a material substrate, are also disclosed.
