The end result is protecting people
and infrastructure from the dangers of
geohazards. The Remote Operated
Launcher System uses high-pressure
compressed air technology to rapidly
install soil nails at a speed of nearly
250 mi (322 km) per hour without
producing drill cuttings or spoils. The
1.5 in (3.8 cm) diameter, 20 ft (6.1 m)
long steel or fiberglass soil nails enter
the earth without significant abrasion,
with soil particles collapsing on the
nail in a relatively undisturbed state.
This creates pullout capacities up to 10
times that of driven or vibrated rods or
tubes, providing an extremely efficient
tool for slope stabilization. Additionally,
the launcher unit has full
articulation, allowing it to efficiently
work around overhead wires, underground
utilities and guard rails.
CZM Foundation Equipment, a
manufacturer of foundation, utility,
piling and landfill drilling equipment,
recently opened a service center in
Ventura, California. The facility located
at 1720 N. Ventura Avenue will expand
access to its West Coast technicians, and
will also provide stock parts and rental
machines. CZM also introduced the
EK260LS as the fourth model in its Long
Stroke series. The EK260LS is mounted
on a Caterpillar 352 Tier IV Final, with
extendable crawlers for 360-degree
stability. It has an operation weight of
200,000 lb (90,900 kg) and a transport
weight of 140,000 lb (63,502 kg). The
machine features a torque output of
209,700 ft/lb (29,085 kg/m). It is a cable
crowd machine with 61 ft (18.6 m) of
stroke. Applications can easily be
switched between Kelly bar, segmented
casing, CFA, displacement piles and soil
mixing. Since 1976, CZM has been a
leader in the foundation drilling industry,
with all products made in the U.S.
using Caterpillar bases and designed by
a team of highly skilled engineers.
Nicolas Willig has joined Forgen as
vice president of its foundations service
line, and will be responsible for
