Dawson Construction Plant Ltd is one of the world’s leading suppliers of Piling Equipment with over 40 years’ experience of designing, developing and manufacturing in the UK. They market worldwide via a network of distributors and supply direct to UK companies in the Foundation and related sectors.
Dawson hydraulic impact hammers are double-acting, high-productivity hammers ideally suited to steel sheet piles, I-sections and tube piles. They utilize a short, accelerated down-stroke to maximize energy and speed in a relatively short hammer with low overall weight.
Dawson offers a ‘purpose-built’ sheet pile setup, with wide anvil maximising area of impact and offset leg guides to ensure energy delivered over the centroid of the sheet pile, ensuring rapid installation with minimum damage to the section.
Dawson hammers are fully mechanical, and can be ‘marinised’ for underwater piling applications.
Industry leading, robust and simple, electronic control system that constantly monitors the drop weight position. This constant monitoring allows the switching timing on the main hydraulic spool to be trended to continually optimise hammer performance throughout varying piling conditions.
