Pilot Boom PB 10 – Precise and Efficient Piling with an Excavator

Professional Pilot Boom for Screw Pile and Driven Pile Installation
The Pilot Boom PB 10 is a powerful and precise piling solution designed for excavators, allowing the machine to be used efficiently for a wide range of piling and foundation applications. The Pilot Boom can be used for screw pile installation with a hydraulic auger as well as driven pile installation with a hydraulic breaker. The guided design of the PB 10 helps keep the attachment and pile correctly aligned throughout the work process. This improves piling accuracy and makes operation easier, especially in applications where precise pile positioning and vertical alignment are essential.
The Pilot Boom is suitable for applications such as building foundations, industrial and steel structure foundations, solar farms, fencing, support structures, infrastructure projects and industrial construction.

Precise Piling with an Excavator

The correct position and vertical alignment of piles have a direct impact on the quality of foundations and structures. The Pilot Boom PB 10 helps the operator control the attachment and keep the pile in the correct position throughout the installation process. Operator visibility can be improved by selecting the mounting plate position according to the application. The mounting plate can be positioned on the side or at the rear of the mast, allowing the Pilot Boom to be adapted to different working conditions. The same Pilot Boom can be equipped with either a hydraulic auger or hydraulic breaker, depending on the application. This makes it possible to use the same basic system for both screw pile installation and driven pile installation.

How Does the Pilot Boom PB 10 Work?

The Pilot Boom consists of a mast mounted to the excavator and a carriage that moves along the mast. Depending on the application, the carriage can be equipped with either a hydraulic auger or hydraulic breaker. The carriage is moved up and down by a hydraulic motor. During downward movement, the system can be adjusted for load-sensing operation, allowing the attachment to advance naturally even when ground conditions change. This is particularly useful in soil with alternating soft and hard layers. The system allows the attachment to adapt to changing ground conditions without unnecessarily restricting its downward movement. When working with a hydraulic auger, the system can also be equipped with auger tilt, making it easier to connect the auger and a new pile to the adapter.

One Pilot Boom – Two Key Applications

Screw Pile Installation with a Hydraulic Auger

When equipped with a hydraulic auger, the PB 10 can be used for screw pile installation and, where required, pre-drilling. The guided Pilot Boom helps keep the auger and pile correctly aligned, providing precise and controlled operation.

Auger applications include:

• building and residential foundations
• foundations for halls and steel structures
• fences and other structures
• solar farm foundations
• screw pile installation
• pre-drilling
• applications where accurate pile positioning and vertical alignment are essential

Driven pile installation with a hydraulic breaker

When equipped with a hydraulic breaker, the Pilot Boom PB 10 can be used for controlled driven pile installation. The Pilot Boom guides the breaker and helps keep the pile correctly aligned during installation. This provides greater control and makes it easier to achieve an accurate pile line.
Breaker applications include:

• building foundations
• retaining walls and support structures
• infrastructure and civil engineering projects
• industrial construction
• solar farm foundations
• other applications where precise driven pile positioning is important

Key Benefits of the Pilot Boom

Pilot Boom for Piling – Get More from Your Excavator

The Pilot Boom PB 10 is an efficient solution for contractors who need to carry out piling work accurately and efficiently with an excavator. When equipped with the right attachment, the same excavator can be used for both screw pile installation and driven pile installation.
