Equipment profile

Built around the project configuration

The SOILMEC SR-125 Blue-Tech is a 496 kNm-class piling rig built for large-diameter foundations, deep Kelly drilling, and high-capacity continuous-flight-auger work. Its configuration range covers conventional bored piles, CFA piles, cased augered and secant piles, displacement methods, and selected ground-improvement processes.

The platform combines a 470 kW power system with cylinder- and winch-crowd arrangements, removable crawler sides, and modular transport assemblies. This places it at the heavy end of the Vernep piling-rig catalog for projects where pile geometry and extraction demand exceed the working range of compact and medium-heavy rigs.
