A hydraulic impact hammer uses controlled gravitational force to drive piles into the ground. The hammer’s impact weight is raised hydraulically and then released in a free fall to strike the pile head. This system ensures reliable energy transfer and minimal mechanical complexity, making it a robust solution for varied site conditions.
