Semi-Automatic Steering System
Easy to Install and User-friendly
The Semi-Automatic Steering System allows the operator to put the excavator bucket cylinder on a floating mode during the pile driving process using the standard joystick. Once the first section of the pile is driven, the floating mode will significantly helps maintaining the initial angle of the pile without having to continuously adjust the movements of the boom throughout the action resulting in a steady pace.
Key Features
Precision
The system ensures the desired angle of the piles during ramming, as well as rapid, smooth, and consistent driving, without zigzag effect.
Durability
The system reduces friction between the sheet piles interlocks, thus ensuring their long-term durability. Moreover, it extends the life cycle of the equipment by significantly reducing lateral pressures on the piles and Gilbert Grizzly Multigrip vibratory pile driver components.
Versatility
The operator can select between floating or standard driving mode.
Low cost
In addition to helping you get the job done faster and limiting the risk of failure, this is an easy to install, low-cost alternative.
