Modern inner-city excavation

When carrying out excavations amongst existing cables, the route and installation depth of these cables is often unclear. This is one of the reasons that suppliers of all media insist that work in the immediate vicinity of supply cables be carried out by hand. However, this cannot be done cost-effectively. Every day, contractors are faced with the decision of whether to make extensive use of hydraulic excavators or to opt for safety by using manual labour – at a high price. The safest and most economical alternative to manual excavation is the use of a suction excavator.

 

Exposing connections to property

An example of working with suction excavators is the rapid and economical production of connections to properties for all media. The use of suction technology enables the trench to be excavated selectively and therefore with minimal spoil, which considerably reduces the subsequent costs. Traffic obstruction is significantly reduced as a result of the smaller surface area required and the considerably shorter construction time.

 

Modern trenchless cable installation

Whether in the production of start and finish trenches, the extraction of bentonite or as an important component in the modern keyhole process, the suction excavator can also be used effectively in trenchless cable installation.
