Weighing in at a formidable 3,500 to 3,800 kilograms (excluding the adapter), the Movax DH-15 is a heavyweight. 

Its solid construction ensures durability, while its compact design allows for easy transport and manoeuvrability on-site. 

The hammer’s 1,360-kilogram ram delivers a staggering impact energy of up to 15 kNm, making it capable of driving piles through even the most challenging ground conditions. 

With a rate of up to 100 blows per minute, it ensures rapid progress, saving both time and labour costs.

Whether you’re working with sheet piles, H-beams, precast concrete, timber, or tube piles, this piling hammer has you covered. 

It accommodates sheet pile widths ranging from 400 to 700mm and H-beam sizes from 180 to 500mm. 

For precast concrete piles, it can handle sizes up to 508x508mm, while timber piles with diameters between 90 and 510mm are no match for its power. 

Tube piles with diameters ranging from 88.9 to 762mm can also be driven with precision, making the DH-15 an adaptable machine.

It is also equipped with a range of features to enhance performance and operator convenience. 

Its floating leader, with a height of 0.7 metres, provides flexibility and stability during operations. 

The hammer’s tilt angle of +/-15 degrees and rotation angle of +/-60 degrees allow for precise positioning, ensuring that piles are driven accurately and efficiently. 

With a hydraulic flow rate of 80 to 120 litres per minute and an operating pressure of 150 bar, the DH-15 delivers consistent power and performance, even in the most demanding conditions.
