Advanced offshore wind installation

Dependable solution for complex piling projects

Developed for the large offshore wind turbine foundations of today and tomorrow.

IQ6: the world’s most powerful hydraulic hammer

Up to 6,600 kJ of energy driving the next generation of larger monopiles.

Optimized efficiency and precision

Continuous 100% capacity operation that can be boosted to 120% depending on soil conditions.

PULSE® compatible

Extended duration of each hammer blow reduces underwater noise, pile fatigue, and environmental disturbance.

Intelligent pile driving with unmatched power and versatility

The IQ-series offers intelligent, efficient, precise pile-driving solutions designed to meet today’s offshore wind construction challenges. Our hydraulic hammers are capable of operating continuously at 100% energy capacity, boosting power to 120% for periods when soil conditions demand it. This adaptability ensures optimized pile driving for stable, long-lasting foundations.

The IQ-series

  • IQ2 delivers up to 3,600 kJ, making it suitable for the current generation of monopiles.
  • IQ4 provides up to 4,800 kJ, accommodating larger monopiles.
  • IQ6, the world’s most powerful hydraulic hammer for the next generation of larger monopiles, offers 6,600 kJ.

Key benefits of all models

  • Efficient steel-to-steel pile driving
  • Minimal downtime, proven low failure rate
  • Advanced piling techniques, such as HiLo (high frequency, low energy), reduce noise and fatigue damage
  • Comprehensive, verifiable piling records for pre- and post-installation analysis
  • Additional power acceleration through gas spring technology
  • Optional Pile Inclination Measurement Equipment (PIME) for precise inclination monitoring
  • Full energy output in nearly all positions (0–90 degrees)
