Earth-Moving & Infrastructure
Efficiency in excavation, infrastructure and pipeline work.
Efficiency in excavation, infrastructure and pipelines
Water, gas, power and telecom infrastructure requires trenching across a wide range, from small connection lines to pipelines hundreds of kilometres long. The ground may be rocky, frozen or soft, and work is often carried out close to settlements and existing infrastructure.
With an attachment range suited to every ground type, HKM delivers a narrow, clean trench profile, low-vibration excavation and fast progress. Choosing the right attachment determines both efficiency and environmental safety.
Related Products
Breaking rock and hard layers
Breaks rock, concrete paving and hard layers along the trench route without blasting; keeps excavation progressing without interruption.
Pole and point drilling
Drills fast, clean circular holes for lighting/sign poles, piles and point holes; disturbs the surrounding ground as little as possible.
Narrow trench profile in rock
Opens a narrow, precise trench profile for gas, water, power and fiber in hard ground with low vibration; works in a controlled way near settlements.
Surface leveling and slope
Works at high throughput on trench edges, slopes and surface correction with the axial drum; provides a precise, vibration-free finish.
Reuse the excavated material
Sizes the rock and fill coming out of the trench on site, making it reusable as backfill/aggregate; reduces hauling.
Fast switching along the trench
Raises field productivity along the trench line with switching between auger, breaker and bucket in seconds.
Loosening on the route
Increases excavation speed by loosening medium-hard and layered ground along the trench route without blasting.
Drill-and-crack line (soon)
Creates a breaking/cracking line for trenching and cuttings by drilling holes in hard rock. This product line is under development.
Hydraulic Drifters
Powerful solutions for drilling and boring.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which attachments are needed in earthmoving and infrastructure?
Hydraulic breakers and rippers for ground breaking, augers and breakers for trench/foundation digging, and quick couplers for fast attachment changes.
Which class suits asphalt and concrete breaking?
Medium/heavy breakers by workload; the right tool type (blunt or moil) markedly increases output.
