How to Extend the Service Life of the Pile Driver Head Impact Hammer

The pile driver head consists of a hammer and an anvil, with the hammer connected to the low-pressure frame through the anvil. During construction, the hydraulic power system of the pile driver supplies power to the pipe pile through the impact hammer of the head, generating greater impact force than other structural components. Therefore, users are advised not to neglect the maintenance of the impact hammer during machine operation or downtime.


1. Before operation, check if the bolts and connectors of the hydraulic lines are loose or leaking.


2. Do not use the hydraulic impact hammer to drill into hard rocks.


3. Do not operate the impact hammer on the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder when it is fully extended or retracted.


4. Do not immerse the impact hammer in water, except for the drill bit.


5. Do not operate the impact hammer on the side of the excavator's tracks.


6. If the hydraulic hose vibrates violently, stop the impact hammer and check the accumulator pressure.


7. Do not use the impact hammer as lifting equipment.


8. Prevent interference between the excavator boom and the impact hammer drill.


9. Ensure the accuracy of the hammer selection and manufacturing quality.


10 Ensure the reasonableness of the internal structure of the impact hammer.


Operating Principle of the Impact Hammer: When performing chiseling operations, ensure that the direction of the drill rod is perpendicular to the surface of the fracture site and maintain the maximum possible distance. If the surface of the fractured object is inclined, the head may slip off the surface. In such cases, the hammer can be damaged, and the piston may be affected. When taking a break, first choose an appropriate resting position and ensure the hammer is indeed stable before striking again.
