One of our brand new Sennebogen 643R, 40 tons capacity telescopic crawler cranes on hire to Green Piling at Rugby, Warwickshire. The machine is being used as a service crane for a CFA piling rig installing piles for a bridge abutment.

Brand new Llamada P105TT CFA piling rig on its way from the factory in Barcelona, Spain to GM Piling in Norfolk. This machine can drill 1000 mm diameter piles to 24 m depth in a single stroke without any extension. The design of the star auger cleaner assists this as no drilling depth is lost. This machine is also equipped with a hydraulic mast folding device. Click here to see a video of it being demonstrated.

A Giken GRB system has just sucessfully installed a 200 linear metre wall of 7 m long U profile sheet piles at Highgate no 1 pond, on Hampstead Heath, Camden, London for CMP-Barker. The equipment comprised a brand new Giken F301 silent piler recently supplied to Ivor King Piling for installing the piles silently and without vibration, along with a Giken CB2-5, 7 tons clamp crane for pitching the piles. In addition a Giken TB3 pile runner was used to deliver the piles to the clamp crane in severely restricted access. We also supplied a 50 tons telescopic crawler crane for unloading piles from delivery lorries and for loading them on to the pile runner. Once the piles were installed the Giken F301 then "walked back" to the start of the pile line using a Giken AM78 walk back device. As you can see from the photos there was very little space, issues with trees and no opportunity to use a conventional crane to distribute and pitch the piles making the Giken GRB system eminently suitable for the job.

Brand new Sennebogen 643R, 40 tons capacity telescopic crawler crane supplied to the CITB Training College at Bircham Newton, Norfolk. The machine will be used to train new crawler crane operators entering the construction industry how to operate a telescopic crawler crane. A first for the CITB who have previously only used lattice boom crawler cranes for training.

With the telescopic crawler crane gaining so much popularity in the UK it was an excellent move to make, and as we are one of the market leaders in this sector it was especially nice to win the tender!

Another day another $ but this time a different application. Last week we were pre augering for sheet piling with this machine but now we are soil mixing with a twin rotary head. The RTG machine is so versatile and changes its equipment in literally a few minutes. Here we are installing 1500 mm diameter soil mixed columns for Deep Soil Mixing Ltd in Runcorn.

The first of our Sennebogen 643R 40 tons telescopic crawler cranes has been delivered to Land & Water to work on a barge on the River Thames at Blackfriars in London. The machine will be working 24 hours per day for 8 weeks with two operators.

We have invested in a total of 4 of these models so please keep a lookout for more stories!

With 50 cranes from 3 tons to 70 tons capacities we're the boys to call! Available for hire nationwide with or without operators. At work within minutes of arriving on site, these telescopic crawler cranes are extremely versatile machines and ideal for restricted access sites.
