The development of hydraulically - powered, static-load sheet pile pressing equipment in response to severe constructional and environmental problems in high-density inner city areas of Japan provides a very quiet method entirely free from vibration.
Since we introduced the Kowan Still Worker into Europe in 1990, we have successfully completed over 750 contracts in Germany, France, Benelux, Switzerland, Denmark, Italy and throughout the UK.
Features/benefits
No noise or vibration allows piling in built-up areas and in close proximity to existing services. Still Worker ZU-100 can Press-in both Z Piles and U Piles simply by exchanging the clamps.
Z pile range: 575mm to 700mm. U pile range: 700mm to 750mm. Up to 150 ton pressing capacity Self travelling means only a small crane is required for pitching and it can work in low headroom areas. Radio controlled and no piling gates required means a productive safe working environment. Unique Tilting Device allows piling up or down a gradient. Turns corners and curves Cost effective alternative to concrete retaining walls i.e. contiguous and diaphragm walls.
