Powerful hydraulic sheet pile pressing machines for vibration-free pressing and extraction of sheet piles.
Foundiz supplies sheet pile pressing machines for the vibration-free pressing and extraction of sheet piles. These machines are used in foundation projects where vibrations are not permitted or where controlled operation is essential.
When choosing the right machine, more than just power plays a role. Foundiz provides support in selecting the correct machine and configuration, tailored to the sheet pile, soil conditions, and project environment.
Foundiz supplies various sheet pile pressing machines, including the Push-Pull machines from Dawson Construction Plant. These machines are suitable for the vibration-free pressing of steel sheet piles, as well as for the extraction and recovery of existing sheet piles.
Sheet pile pressing machines are used in projects where minimal nuisance is required, such as inner-city construction sites, infrastructural works, and locations with sensitive buildings.
In addition to standard sheet pile profiles, these machines can also be used for special applications, such as pipe piles and box piles. The Push-Pull machines can also be used to press and extract so-called Key piles. Key piles are sheet pile profiles rolled into a special shape, making them much stronger than conventional sheet piles.

For projects where vibrations are not permitted, hydraulic sheet pile pressing machines offer an effective solution. Instead of vibrating sheet piles, controlled hydraulic forces are used to press sheet piles into the ground.
This allows sheet piles to be installed with minimal impact on the environment, which is essential when working in urban areas or near existing structures.
The Push-Pull sheet pile pressing machines are available in various versions, with 2, 3, or 4 cylinders. The cylinder units are modular, allowing the machines to be adapted to the desired configuration, depending on the application and required force.
The machines can be used in a leader guided configuration in combination with a piling rig, but also free suspended in combination with a crawler crane.
The Push-Pull sheet pile pressing machines are among the most powerful solutions within this segment.
The Push-Pull system works with hydraulic clamps that grip the top of interlocking steel sheet piles. Using the pull-down force of the piling rig, the clamped sheet piles are pressed into the ground with maximum force until the machine’s available capacity is reached.
While this force is maintained, the hydraulic Push-Pull cylinders exert an additional vertical force on one sheet pile, with the surrounding sheet piles in the group providing the necessary reaction force. Once the sheet piles have moved over the full stroke of the cylinders, the Push-Pull machine retracts, after which the cycle repeats.
This process makes it possible to install sheet piles into the ground with high force and in a controlled manner.
The Push-Pull machines ensure an accurate and controlled installation of sheet piles.
The hydraulic clamps are designed with a powerful wedge-grip action and, in combination with an adjustable guidance system, rotation of the piston rods is prevented.
Through the controlled build-up of force and repetitive cycle, a consistent and predictable installation process is achieved.
Support and Service
What distinguishes Foundiz is the combination of machine delivery and technical support. In addition to the sale of micro drilling rigs, Foundiz has a team of specialists with experience in maintenance and repair of foundation machines.
This keeps machines in good condition and allows for a quick response to technical issues during the execution of projects.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have questions about sheet pile pressing machines? Below you will find the most frequently asked questions about vibration-free sheet piling, the difference between pressing and vibrating, and when these techniques are applied. Questions? Please contact us.
Vibration drives sheet pile boards into the ground using high-frequency vibrations. Pressing drives the boards into the ground without vibrations and is more suitable for vibration-sensitive environments.
Vibration-free means that the sheet piles are pressed into the ground without vibrations. This prevents damage to surrounding foundations, cables, or other sensitive structures. This is particularly relevant in urban areas.
We are happy to advise you on the right machine and configuration, tailored to your application and project conditions.
