The Ultimate Pile Driving & Pulling Solution for Your Excavator
What is a Vibro Hammer?
Vibro Hammer is an excavator attachment. It uses strong vertical vibration to reduce soil resistance, for high-frequency pile driving and pulling. Allowing various pile types—such as steel sheet piles, pipe piles, and concrete piles.
Key Advantages:
- Fast & Efficient: 2500 vibrations per minute, saving both time and fuel.
- Safe & Reliable: All actions (vibration, clamping, rotation) are independently controlled.
- Quiet Operation: Minimal noise, ideal for urban environments.
- Compact & Adaptable: Works with most excavator brands, no need for extra power packs.

Plie Driver
How Does a Vibro Hammer Work?
RAY Vibro Hammers utilize rotating eccentric weights powered by hydraulic motors to generate vertical vibrations. These vibrations reduce the soil’s resistance around the pile.
The operation is simple:
- Clamp the pile tightly with the oil-pressure-driven jaws.
- Activate vibration to liquefy surrounding soil.
- Use excavator downforce to press the pile in or extract it.
- Application Scenarios & Equipment Synergy
Our vibro hammers are ideal for:
- Foundation construction
- River and harbor projects
- Cofferdam works
- Bridge piling
- Urban sheet piling projects
Compatible Tools in Similar Scenarios:
- Earth Augers: Best for drilling into cohesive or dry ground
- Side Grip Vibro Hammers: Perfect for tight-space urban works or rail-side operations
- Hydraulic Breakers: For removing concrete obstacles before piling
Combining these tools based on jobsite conditions enhances overall efficiency.
How to Choose the Right Vibro Hammer?
Consider the following:
- Excavator Size & Brand
- Pile Type (steel, concrete, H-beam)
- Pile Dimensions (width, diameter,weight)
- Jobsite Conditions (soil hardness, water content)
- Depth Requirements
Contact us our team for a recommendation tailored to your excavator and application needs.
Operation Safety Tips
- Always use a certified operator.
- Never operate without proper clamp engagement.
- Avoid excessive load or prolonged use of second-stage vibration.
- Do not perform sideways pile movement while vibrating.
- Always secure auxiliary wire ropes during pile driving/pulling.
⚠️ Note: For hard soil layers, recommend use earth auger to drill hole first or use two-stage vibration sparingly and allow for cooling time to avoid gearbox overheating.
Daily Maintenance & Customer FAQs
Daily Checklist:
- Check all bolts and clamp pins
- Lubricate all shaft pins
- Ensure no oil leakage in hydraulic lines
- Clean pile head regularly
- Inspect damping rubber and replace if cracked
- Check gearbox oil weekly; replace monthly
