Additional Drilling Rig Information
In recent years, Soilmec has expanded its machine product lines to include crawler cranes and tunnel boring machines.
Soilmec offers the unique service of analyzing and archiving a machine’s on-site behaviors for its engineers to study. This enables them to create design solutions for issues that Soilmec customers experience on real job sites.
The wide variety of models allows for the performance of any pile foundation, micropiles, diaphragm walls, and more. Soilmec makes it a point to include in-field experience as a vital part of their model’s designs and use philosophies, safety, and innovation.
As end-to-end problem solvers, Soilmec’s machinery proves pivotal on any job site. Soilmec sells the following types of machines:
- Large Diameter Piling (LDP)
- Continuous Flight Auger (CFA)
- Micropiling
- Displacement piling
- Cranes
- Hydromill
- Ancillary
Product Lines
Large Diameter Piling
With its SR line, Soilmec offers the best and newest large-diameter piling rigs. Its large cabs increase visibility and comfort, while the DMS technology provides superior operator control.
Continuous Flight Auger
Soilmec rigs offer configurations for CFA cast piling. This technology creates a continuous pile by first excavating a hole, extracting the auger, and injecting concrete through a hollow shaft into the hole.
Micropiling
Soilmec’s micropiling line was designed with efficiency, productivity, and safety in mind. You can configure most micropiling rigs using single or double rotaries, top-hammer, or vibro-rotary for consolidation, micropiling, and anchoring.
Hydromill
Typically attached to a crawler crane and used in the casting of slurry walls, Soilmec’s hydromill trench cutters offer superior soil-crushing power.
Cranes
Soilmec’s heavy-duty cranes are self-assembling, versatile, and easily transported. These machines have many applications beyond general lifting, including hydromill, hydraulic/cable grab, hammer grab, hydraulic vibrator, hydraulic/mechanical rotary, and pile driving.
Ancillary
Do you need grout pumps, buckets, coring barrels, rock augers, under-reamers, or other ancillary equipment for your rig? Soilmec has it all.

Drilling Deeper
Large Diameter Piles
Benefits:
- An adaptive Kelly bar allows you to drill very deep piles.
- Various drilling tools, casings, and auxiliary equipment are suitable for drilling in soil and rock.
- Quickly adjust the length and diameter of the piles to adapt to changing ground conditions.
- No need for extensive excavations and subsequent refilling.
- No vibration means it won’t disturb nearby piles or structures.
- Offers higher capacities and potentially better economics compared to driven piles.
- Large-diameter bored piles are frequently used to construct foundations for bridges and viaducts over water.
Continuous Flight Auger (CFA)
CFA technology blends the benefits of driven piles with the adaptability of bored piles. We create CFA piles by partially removing soil, which results in lateral soil pressure that enhances their load-bearing capacity.
The construction process involves drilling into the soil using a CFA attached to a central hollow stem. Once drilling is complete, we withdraw the auger while pouring concrete through the hollow stem.
You can reinforce the piles along their entire length by inserting reinforcement cages into the freshly poured concrete.
Benefits
- The technology produces no shocks, vibrations, or noise, allowing for operation in urban areas.
- Minimal required equipment reduces the job site footprint and enables work in tight spaces.
- High production rates are easily achievable.
- Suitable for a broad range of firm and cohesionless soils, including those with water-bearing layers, without the need for bentonite fluid for wall support.
Micropiling
There is a large field for using micropiles. Also known as mini piles, micropiles are constructed using high-strength, small-diameter steel casing and/or threaded bars and then grouted into position.
Micropile drill rigs are extremely versatile and can venture outside of traditional job site conditions. You can successfully install rods and casing in areas with restricted access, low headroom, and varying degrees of angle and ground condition. Add additional small-diameter piles to existing foundations for further stabilization.
Benefits:
- Jet grouting
- Tie Backs
- Soil Nailing
- Enhance ground stability
- Load transfer
- Providing structural support
