Japan developed plug-in pile driver
July 07, 2021
When you lift a construction site and piling it, most people will think of the huge bangs and vibrations that occur when the air hammer falls. The reporter recently saw a new type of pile driver in an interview with a Japanese technology research and development company in Kochi City. It changed the traditional “pile” into a “pile”, overcame the shortcomings of noise and vibration, and improved ergonomics.
This kind of machine uses the reaction force generated by the inverted steel piles to insert steel piles with a height of 20 to 30 meters into the ground. It will not generate loud noises and vibration during the construction process, and it will occupy a small space because of the construction and can even be used already. There is a zero distance piling near the building.
The specific operation is to lift the steel piles with a crane, and a new type of pile driver will jam the lower part of the steel pile and insert the steel pile into the ground with a great reaction force. Regardless of whether the section is an I-shaped steel pile or a round or S-shaped steel pile, it can be inserted into the ground using this type of machine.
When confronted with rock and gravel strata, the simultaneous development of drilling and cutting machines at the Technical Development Institute can be a dazzling demonstration. The earth and stone produced by this kind of machine when drilling is not raised outside the earth's surface, but is drawn locally, while drilling, backfilling and side stakes.
From the end of October to the beginning of November last year, the technical development institute held a plug-in pile driver exhibition in Ming district in Tokyo, which attracted the attention of many people in the industry.
The company's manufacturing department deputy minister Watanabe Kenji told Xinhua News Agency reporters that they accept orders and can produce various types of steel pile inserters according to customer requirements. The company has offices throughout Japan and in London, the Netherlands, Berlin, the United States, Singapore and Hong Kong.
