WELCOME TO THE PIPEMAC

Changing how pipes are laid – forever!

Our systems make PipeLaying in trenches;

Dramatically Safer – no personnel in the trench at any stage

Dramatically Faster – Install rates increased by at least a factor of two and often by a factor of three with resulting minimum savings of €5,000 per day!

“The PIPEMAC system totally removes the need for a person in the trench, which is a huge win for us in terms of health and safety on site.”

New ways to lay pipes

This innovative approach has since been carried through other areas of the project. The PIPEMAC system, developed by PipeMac Technologies is new technology which automates the laying of pipes in open cut trenches. The two-part attachment includes a 360 rotational pipe pusher which uses lasers to guide the pipes and hydraulic ram to push them into place. The compactor unit includes a quick hitch mounted rotatable compactor, allowing the pipe bedding material to be poured around the pipe and compacted ensure exceptional bedding for the laid pipe.

“The PIPEMAC system totally removes the need for a person in the trench, which is a huge win for us in terms of health and safety on site,” said James. “We will be trialling the equipment over the final six weeks of our pipe laying programme to assess its value and to see how we can bring its benefits to bear on future projects.”
