The percussion drilling method, called pipe jacking, is used for installing pipelines under the ground without digging – for gas pipelines or protective tubes with diameters between (25-2000) mm, under railway embankments, platform lines of railway, stations and marshalling yards, national and county roads, tram depots, premises, irrigation canals, airports, bridges, etc. Mentioning that it also complies with all conditions of the STAS 9312-87.
The technology is based on advancing the steel pipeline in the ground, operated by a percussion equipment attached to its end.
The percussion device is a robust pneumatic equipment of high reliability, acting independently. The machine is equipped with modular accessories that allow adaptation to pipes with different diameters. The assembly and handling of this equipment is done with simple operations, all devices being ergonomically designed.
