Configuration
Accessories that make the difference
The TURCHI 300F can be configured with optional accessories that maximise productivity, precision and return on investment.
01
Pre-drilling + Screw piles
Rotation head
Available in lateral (1 motor) or central (2 motors) configuration. Mounts augers and DTH hammers for pre-drilling in hard soils, or drives screw piles directly with the same machine. One machine, two functions.
02
Up to +30% faster
STONEX semi-automatic GPS
Integrated GNSS system with centimetre accuracy that automatically guides the pile driver to the exact project coordinates. Zero piles off-position, reduced errors and up to 30% faster positioning.
03
Precision on any terrain
Automatic verticality
Digital inclinometer and automatic hydraulic correction system that keeps the column perfectly vertical even on sloped ground. Every pile is plumb without manual adjustment.
04
Hydraulic core drill
Pre-drilling attachment for hard and rocky soils. Reduces stress on the pile and speeds up driving. Available in two field configurations.
Configurations
- 4-hole
- Single
05
Radio remote control
Wireless machine operation. The operator controls movements from a safe distance while keeping direct sight of the driving point. Available in two configurations.
Configurations
- Full
- Tracks only
06
2 motors
Head rotation · central (2 motors)
Driving head with central-axis rotation powered by two opposed hydraulic motors. More torque and symmetric positioning relative to the column — suited to larger section piles and sites demanding high angular precision.
07
Rocky soils
DTH · down-the-hole hammer
Pre-drilling in rocky or hard soils using a down-the-hole hammer mounted in line with the column. Overcomes compact layers while keeping the pile vertical, without repositioning the machine.
08
End-of-life sites
Mechanical extractor
Fast pile extraction for repositioning or dismantling the plant. Mechanical pile coupling, controlled lift in line with the column. Ideal at PV site end-of-life for full structure recovery — without third-party equipment.
09
24/7 site work
Lighting kit
High-brightness LED work light on the column, aimed at the driving zone. Work in low light — dawn, dusk, tunnels, covered sites — without external light towers. Powered directly from the machine electrical system.
Case study
~1,850 piles in 12 working days. Two operators. Zero machine stops.
How two operators completed ~1,850 piles in 12 days using a TURCHI 300F
From the site
“With the TURCHI 300F we handed over the site three days ahead of schedule. The client awarded us the second lot directly.”
Original (Romanian)
“Cu TURCHI 300F am predat șantierul cu 3 zile mai devreme față de graficul de execuție. Clientul ne-a încredințat direct al doilea lot.”
