Intermat 2012, despite bad weather successful
Despite the bad weather more than 200,000 visitors visited the Intermat 2012. With that number Intermat proved to be the second largest international construction exhibition after the Bauma in Europe. The stand of our French dealer IHC Equipements et Services S.A.S. was visited by a large number of customers and other guests who showed interest in the ICE products shown. Of course the majority of them was French but our Sales Managers were glad to meet people from all over the world. Our wide range of products was well received by our customers and prospects. Our new products, the 20RF vibratory hammer, the 600RF power pack with Tier 4 engine and of course the new Vibroflot attracted much attention. We thank everyone who has bothered to visit us during this successful exhibition and hope they enjoyed our "Bitterballs" who were a great succes in France.ICE provides Bangkok dry feet

Read morePredicting impact and vibro drivability
Dynamic measuring for optimized project managementThe company Geodrive is inherent in pile driving predications. PVE was one of the first partners of Geodrive to develop special software for analyzing pile drivability, yet generally known as GeoWave. Impact and vibro drivability in a nutshell.
What installation
Among others, Geodrive offers programmes that simulate the pile driving process at different penetration levels. “In doing so, you can easily calculate what technique is most suitable with what installation”, says Geert Jonker, founder of Geodrive. “Regardless if you are dealing with sheet piles, platforms or wind farm foundations, you have to know in advance what equipment you need to do the job efficiently”.
As soon as foundation requirements are clear, based on the outcome of geotechnical survey, Geodrive joins in. Jonker: “When the specs are final and the tender has been published, contractors contact their suppliers for support. PVE ‘backs’ its recommended equipment with our driveability studies. This endorsement is highly appreciated by contractor and principal”.
