Built to keep working.
The TURCHI 300F is more than a machine. It is a business solution that changes how you work. Reliable diesel engine, proportional hydraulic mast and hammer certified up to 1,500 J — every detail maximises productivity.
One operator delivers the output of three. Setup takes 15 minutes. Working height reaches 6 m. Weight from 4,400 kg allows transport on a standard trailer.
Every day it works, it earns. Every day idle, it costs. The 300F was designed with that mindset: reliability, simple operation and ROI that speaks for itself.
The machine top European installers choose for solar sites.
One machine. Two sectors. Real results.

working height
The TURCHI 300F is aimed at solar and agriculture, but also works on road sites. Pile-driving height up to 6 m depending on configuration; shoes for H, C, U and Sigma profiles and custom shoes for other profiles. With short piles, 150 piles/day is an indicative average; 200-300 are possible in optimal conditions. 350-450 piles/MW is usual, but one two-pile project needed about 1000. Timelines depend on the project, ground and logistics.

For road work, the 300F installs guardrail, sigma posts and safety systems quickly and accurately. One operator does work that used to need a crew. The mast adjusts ±10° sideways and +10° frontally; the frontal -51° is for transport, not work. These angles do not indicate a safe working slope.
Configure for roadHow it works. As simple as it looks.
Four intuitive steps from zero to productive.
Position
Move the machine to the first pile with simplified controls.
Align
Adjust the mast: ±10° sideways, +10° frontally. The frontal -51° is for transport, not work; these are not safe slope limits.
Drive
Run the hammer and watch the pile reach full depth.
Move on
Go to the next pile and repeat.
No special training required. Intuitive from day one. The wireless remote gives full control from anywhere.

With short piles and ordinary working conditions, 150 piles per day is an indicative average, not a guaranteed minimum. In optimal conditions 200-300 piles per day are possible; with long piles, difficult ground or slow handling the output falls. To estimate your site we need pile height, ground, organisation and number of operators.
The TURCHI 300F can be fitted for H, C, U and Sigma profiles and for other profiles with dedicated shoes. Defining them requires the pile's technical drawing or the necessary measurements; the custom kit includes an upper guide and a lower pile-centring collar. Actual compatibility also depends on pile height and ground.
No. The 300F is intuitive from day one. New operators can be trained in half a day. The wireless remote allows full control from anywhere.
The TURCHI 300F mast is chosen according to pile height: configurations of 4.40, 5.20 and 6.00 metres are available. For piles up to 6 metres the 6-metre configuration is used; extensions can also be bought later. Tell us the pile height so we can choose the right set-up.
The TURCHI 300F operating weight is 4,400 kg. Trailer, payload, dimensions and site access must be checked against the ordered configuration and the transport vehicle; the machine's weight alone is not enough to choose the trailer.

Yes. GPS and all accessories can be added later. The machine is modular and upgradable over time.
