Our Sheet Piling Rigs

• Leader (swivelling around vertical axis): Plus/minus 90˚
• Engine Size and Diesel Emission: 570 kW, stage 3, cf. EU standard
• Weight (in operational mode without hammer): 82.8 tons

The rig can be equipped with various tools all running on the leader. The horizontal bearing capacity of the leader is rather high, which makes the rig suitable for heavy sheet piling and drilling work. The engine of the base rig drives all tools mounted on the rig without using separate power pack. Equipped with a vibrator, the rig is able to vibrate and pitch sheet piles, HEB profiles or the like. The clamp of the vibrator fits a HE300B.

The high-frequency vibrator operates with resonant free start and stop and with a maximum of 2600 rpm. It is possible to vary both the number of revolutions and the eccentric moment. Together with the resonant free start and stop, it is possible to fit the effect and mode of operation of the vibrator to the specific task and to the soil conditions, thereby reducing the vibration level of buildings near the site.

• Weight (excl. adapter):  3450kg – 3708kg
• Eccentric Moment: 7.6kgm
• Frequency: 2300 – 3000 1/min

The Movax SG-75V has been designed to match the capabilities of larger excavators and combines a robust structure to provide excellent pile handling characteristics. Fitted with heavy duty clamps, the SG-75V is capable of driving steel sheet piles. This high frequency sheet pile driver provides minimal disturbance to the surround environment, avoiding oscillation of the soil and the surrounding structures.

The SG-75V uses the Movax Control System (MCS™) which has been designed to allow the operator to monitor all aspects of the equipment whilst piling. It includes a clear colour display with ergonomic interface and effortless controls of all functions via the switches and thumbwheels on the control grip. Arsleff attaches its Movax SG-75V to a high performance Volvo excavator, having been deployed on multiple piling projects across the UK within the commercial, infrastructure and civils sectors.

• Eccentric Moment: 0 – 40 kgm
• Max Frequency: 2,000 rpm
• Weight (without clamp, turning plate or ballast): 6,200 kg

The PVE 40 VM vibrator consists of a power pack and a high frequency vibratory sheet pile hammer with variable moment. This type of vibrator is particularly designed to vibrate elements into or out of the ground with as little vibratory impact on the surroundings as possible. By now, it is a demand in most urban areas that this type of vibrator is applied.

During start-up the eccentric moment is kept at 0 until the wanted number of rotations (frequency) has been reached. Then the position of the eccentric weights is adjusted which causes the hammer to vibrate. The reverse process makes the hammer stop. The advantage of this principle is that the vibrator does not generate any vibrations until the working frequency (number of rotations) has been reached, i.e. not during start and stop. As vibrating at low frequencies can be damaging to the surroundings, this method reduces the impact on e.g. buildings near the site considerably.

• Eccentric Moment: 0-19 kgm
• Max Frequency 2,300 rpm
• Weight (without clamp, turning plate or ballast): 3,100 kg

Similar to the PVE 40 VM, the PVE 2319 VM vibrator consists of a power pack and a high-frequency vibratory sheet pile hammer with variable moment. This type of vibrator is particularly designed to vibrate elements into or out of the ground with as little vibratory impact on the surroundings as possible. In many urban areas, it is a requirement that this type of vibrator is applied. The machine can adjust the frequency (number of rotations) and the eccentric moment and thereby the amplitude (length of the vertical movement).

• Max Pressing-In Force: 110 tons
• Pressing-In Speed: 2.8 to 373 metres per minute
• Operational Weight (excl. reaction stand and jet reel): 13.9 tons

Silent Piler ECO 700S is a piling rig for hydraulic pressing-in of sheet piles. It consists of the actual machine, a power pack and a reaction stand. This silent sheet piling rig is designed for pressing-in of various kinds of sheet piles of the U and Z type. The sheet piles are pressed-in hydraulically by means of a chuck in the front part of the machine gripping the sheet pile. Subsequently, the chuck is pressed downwards by two hydraulic cylinders. In order to carry out this operation, a counterweight is required.

An operator controls the Silent Piler by means of a wireless radio control transmitter. The Silent Piler is equipped with electronic recording of various data during the piling process. It is possible to print graphs of the pressing-in and extraction power, jetting volume and jetting pressure, all as a function of the pressing-in depth. Data is recorded by a computer integrated in the machine, and data can subsequently be transferred to a PDF file.

We have a wide range of other equipment available to suit specific requirements.
