- In response to the different soil conditions, serveal drill bits are offered for the jobsite terrain situation. Whatever the materials of the piles, there always exists an appropriate hydraulic hammer for the piling work.
- In accordance with the difference solar panels shapes, bore caps of hydraulic hammers will be customized for the actual application. For the solid installation in the whole construction, EVERSTAR try their best to meet diverse demands from clients.
Introduction to Solar Pile Drivers
Solid foundation is significant for the certain solar fields, which promotes the renewable utilization of solar energy resources.
Typical projects:
- Utility-scale ground-mounted photovoltaic power station program: Under such circumstance, a hydraulic crawler pile driver with high travel speed is the good choice. Owning the capable of quickly piling panels across vast desert areas is one of the advantages of the pile drivers from EVERSTAR.
- Mountainous / Hilly Photovoltaic Power Station: To overcome such complex condition, the strong grade ability and self-leveling capacity are helpful for the construction process. At the same time, the piles are driven into the ground with the help of leveling system whatever the terrain condition.
- Agro-photovoltaic / Aquaculture-photovoltaic Projects: One of the complexed problems is that the soil is soft and muddy. It is easily for the pile driver get stuck in the mud, delaying the work shedule.
Overview of Solar Pile Driver Machine Functionality
The soild function is the basic for the piling construction. If the surface of the soil is too soft to withstand heavy height of the buildings on the jobsites, only piling long panels to create powerful support for safety construction.
How driving piles secures foundations
Avoid uneven settlement: The condition like that one part of the ground is soft, but the other part is hard. It will influence the balance of buildings on the ground. Piles into the ground make sure that the unified foundation for solar panels.
Against wind force: Due to the open wild area is chosen to the construction site, so the wind force will damange the structure of buildings. At the same time, the stable foundation plays as the role of guard.
Improve construction speed: Unified foundation is dependability for process of the productivity. Under the condition of time limitation, installation team are more poerful with the aid of equipments than before.
Types of Solar Pile Drivers and Ramming Machines
There are three types of solar pile drivers in EVERSTAR, HXR5 series, HXR6 series and HXR7 series. Each pile driver within its characteristics performs well under solar industry standards. Normal demands of clients include efficiency and quality of the machines. 200-400 piles driving into ground satisfy the efficiency requirements, which is suitable for large-scale installing work.
Hydraulic Hammer Attachments and Pile Drivers
Four types of hydraulic hammers within different impact power are offered for certain piling work. Besides, the functions of the solar pile driver include DTH drilling, auger drilling and screws driving. In terms of different types of soil conditions, applications of the attachments are different.
DTH drilling: The DTH drilling is designed for the soil condition as hard rock, gravel layers, or permafrost. With the help of powerful impact force, the piles will drive into the soil easily.
Auger drilling: Auger drilling is a good partner for piles driven into the clay and sandy soil. The dedication of this attachment is useful for the complex construction situation.
Screws driving: The screws driving is specialized in soft soil and uneven terrain. Due to the usage of attachment like this, the budget will drop from decreasing other human resources.
Low-Noise Pile Drivers
The applications of the hydraulic system offer stability function in the construction site, which is environmental friendly for construction
Low-noise pile drivers are not only beneficial for operator’s health, but also for the environment protection.
How to Choose a Solar Pile Driver Machine for Your Solar Project
When choosinng a solar pile driver using in the certain project, many preparations need to do to finish the tasks in success.
Firstly, the size of the project need to be confirmed when carrying on the program. To ensure the efficiency of building, the project scale determines the amount of pile drivers in need.
Secondly, evaluating soil conditions is the other step for choosing the ramming pile drivers. Factors of ground condition influence the choices of attachments, and right choices of the attachments decrease unnecessary costs.
Last, the cost effective is another factor affects the choice for clients. Unmatched product support will damange the trust from clients, so the high quality service is also the priority for the choosing.

Maintenance Best Practices for Solar Pile Drivers
Daily maintenance is significant for pile drivers usage, schedule routine hydraulic components inspections is essential for models lifespan.
Before using, piling mechanism checking is essential for the equippment driving. Therefore, the clean oil tank will benefit for machine better performance in the working process.
After using the machine, the dry temperature-controlled space is suitable for storing to check and repair machines.
Operating Best Practices for Driving Piles
Before mobilization, surveying site conditions will be helpful for pile driving. Be familiar with the working environment is the precondition for machine operation. At the same time, removing surface obstacles from pile locations is also an measure to ensure the process safety.
Comparing Solar Pile Drivers and Procurement Tips
From aspects of panels materials, construction costs, installation size and productivity demand, selecting the cost-effective machine is a cautious process for customers.
According to different demands of impact energy, there are 4 types of hydraulic hammers in EVERSTAR satisfy the meets in actual working condition.
Clients pay more attention to lead times, because the shipment time influence their construction time in some terms. EVERSTAR will offer shorter lead times than other manufactures, which acquires more customers trust on purchasing.
FAQs—— Solar Pile Driver Machine and Ramming Machine Solar
Why the pile driver need to be equipped with GPS?
Improve piling speed: Conpared with traditional piling steps, the advanced technology decrease the time costs and increase efficiency of solar project.
Reduce costs: The operator can see a “crosshair” on the screen inside the cab and simply align the machine with the coordinates shown on the display to begin work. Such improvement can save a significant amount of labor cost and time.
Achieve precision: The system can display the current elevation of the pile tip in real time, ensuring that the driving depth of each pile fully meets the design requirements.
What is life span of pile driver and what is the efficiency of life?
During normal usage condition, the life span is 5years, if maintenance is right, the life time is 8years. The efficiency of life depends on the pile diameter and length, soil condition (hard or soft), project size, operater skill.
