The VDH Sheet Piler is a versatile sheet pile driving machine, suitable for vibrating and pressing various types of sheet piles. The biggest difference compared to the traditional method of installing sheet piles – with a crane and vibratory hammer – is that this machine can also provide compressive prestress on the sheet piling, which increases efficiency.
In our fully equipped metal and hydraulic workshops and paint shop, we employ skilled welders, mechanics and paint sprayers who ensure that you get a top-notch end product. The welding, hydraulics and assembly of the piling rigs and appliances are all completed here. The piling rigs and appliances are then treated in our paint shop to preserve them.
In total, the hydraulic telescopic mast can extend up to 5 metres. Two additional mast sections have been fitted to provide a maximum pin height of 23,440 mm. This allows longer sheet piles to be installed, with a maximum length of 21 metres and a weight of 3,750 kg. It is also possible to work closer to the machine. When there is limited working space (projects in the city centre) or when work has to be done from a pontoon (hydraulic engineering works), this offers great advantages.
The mast, which consists of four sections including jib, can reach a total height of 20 metres. The machine’s undercarriage can be hydraulically widened to a maximum outer dimension of 5 metres, which provides extra stability during the work. The VDH Sheet Piler is also available with a hydraulic telescopic mast.
Our service department repairs, maintains and overhauls piling rigs. All our employees are experienced, highly trained and possess a great deal of knowledge. Regardless of which type of rig or make, we make sure that you have full confidence in your equipment.
Van den Heuvel has a team of mechanics with fully equipped service vans waiting for you. Our service department is experienced, well-trained, and operational throughout Europe to quickly resolve the failure of your foundation machine.
In our warehouse we have a large stock of parts. If a part is not in stock, we can order it for you and deliver it quickly.
We carry out complete overhauls, giving your piling rig a whole new lease of life in an as-new condition. But you might also opt for partial modifications. This might include cabins and undercarriages. Our service engineers will serve you either at our workshop in Werkendam or on-site.
You must be able to rely on your piling rig at all times. If the technology lets you down, you can depend on our engineers to help, either in our workshops or on-site. If you’ve suffered a malfunction, then call us on +31 (0)183 502 655 (also available outside office hours).
