Rarely seen these days but we still have the equipment and specialist skill to supply crawler cranes with clamshell grabs.

Here you can see us dredging the River Tyne with one of our Sennebogen 650HD, 50 tons capacity crawler cranes, supplied with operator and banskman.

AGD - your one stop shop for crawler cranes and piling equipment.

AGD has delivered it's first one stop shop sheet piling project for A Williams Building Services on a project in Barby, Warwickshire.

We arranged the sheet pile design, supplied 9 m long TKL601 sheet piles and hired an RTG RG16T telescopic leader rig with operator and banksman to the project.

The sheet piles were being installed into hard soils and so we used the RTG to first pre auger and then an MR150AVM vibro to drive the piles to finished level.

Access on to the small site wasn't easy but all in a days work for #TeamOrange, your one stop shop for your piling projects.

The dual purpose machine is capable of bored piling with Kelly bar, casings & augers and is also equipped with a quick-change CFA kit for CFA and displacement piling.

Suttles management team came up for the handover, after we'd trained their site personnel. A good day was had by all.

Stay tuned for photos of the machine in action on site!

One of our brand new Sennebogen 613E 15 tons capacity telescopic crawler cranes was chosen for a restricted access project in Hull this month. The crane was used to service a Giken silent piler which was installing a sheet piled wall in front of a commercial property on the Hull river in Kingston upon Hull on behalf of Steel Piling Solutions.

In addition to the crane and operator we also supplied a man riding cage so that operatives could access the piles at the lower level. The Sennebogen 613 was certified for this activity.

It's near zero tail swing allowed it work easily in the confines of the site where it was located.

We recently supplied a 50 tons lattice boom Sennebogen 650HD crawler crane to regular customer Humber Work Boats to work on one of their barges in Hull. The crane was used to drive 17 m long 610 mm diameter tubular piles for a new berth for the Spurn Lightship which will now become a museum as part of Hull's maritime heritage.
