HammerHead
The new 22-ton, radio remote-controlled HydroGuide HG2200 completes HammerHead’s line of next-generation cable winches designed for maximum efficiency and ease-of-use in pipe-bursting, slip-lining and pipe-slitting applications.
Radio remote-control provides operators maximum visibility when positioning the winch, freeing them from a position at the controls on the back of the unit. Operators simply launch the unit’s patented 23-foot hydraulic boom with the touch of a button, and can fine-tune its depth to 20 feet. The boom is adjustable along all three axes for exact positioning. The HG2200 is now the largest tonnage unit equipped with the unique, self-deploying boom, exclusive to HammerHead Trenchless, a Charles Machine Works company.
Line speed and pressure for the unit’s 2,500 feet of cable are both infinitely adjustable within their parameters. The HG2200 is available in wheeled or tracked configurations and comes standard with hydraulic levelling jacks.
