The pile breaker is an innovative tool used in construction projects to efficiently cut off concrete pile heads. Known for its speed, precision, and safety, this equipment is especially popular in foundation construction, bridge engineering, and civil building projects. With the ability to deliver clean, level cuts, it reduces labor intensity and significantly shortens construction time.
At YG Machinery, the pile breaker is one of our best-selling products thanks to its high quality, competitive pricing, and reliable performance.
What Is a Pile Breaker?
This equipment efficiently breaks down cast-in-place piles or precast piles directly at the construction site.. Unlike traditional manual methods, a hydraulic pile breaker offers a modular structure powered by an excavator or hydraulic station. You can easily install it and adjust it according to the pile diameter, which makes it suitable for various construction environments.
Key Advantages:
- High efficiency: It quickly removes pile heads with consistent results.
- Safe and simple operation: Minimal technical training is required.
- Low noise and vibration: Suitable for urban or noise-sensitive projects.
- Modular design: Easily adapts to different pile sizes.
