We developed and built this piling machine, fully tailored to the customer&#8217;s requirements. This is the second MP (Multi Purpose) machine that we have built for Hammer &amp; Steel. Hammer &amp; Steel sells and rents high-quality equipment such as piling and drilling machines, hammers, and much more. In 2023, we already delivered a VDH-MP70, and after the success of that machine, we were commissioned to build a second Multi Purpose machine. The MP40 will enable this leading American supplier of drilling and piling equipment to further expand its business activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>From CFA to piling<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We have previously built the MP40 twice as a CFA (Continuous Flight Auger) machine. Hammer &amp; Steel asked us if we could supply a similar machine, but with a different application, namely piling. Instead of the leader system of the MP70, this MP40 works with winches.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>User-friendly design<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Like the MP70, the MP40 is also equipped with various practical details that contribute to ease of use and safety. These include steps, handles and lighting. Thanks to the lighting in the doors, there is good visibility during maintenance work.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cabin is ergonomically designed and equipped with an air-suspended seat with lumbar support. The operating consoles are adjustable independently of the seat. The modern cabin design combines rounded shapes with straight windows to prevent reflection and distortion. The large windshield offers optimum visibility of the construction site.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cabin design takes into account the strict safety and health requirements of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) in the US. These specifications have remained unchanged. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped splide wpcom-gallery wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><button type='button' class='close-btn'><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 640 640\"><path fill=\"#ffffff\" d=\"M320 576C461.4 576 576 461.4 576 320C576 178.6 461.4 64 320 64C178.6 64 64 178.6 64 320C64 461.4 178.6 576 320 576zM231 231C240.4 221.6 255.6 221.6 264.9 231L319.9 286L374.9 231C384.3 221.6 399.5 221.6 408.8 231C418.1 240.4 418.2 255.6 408.8 264.9L353.8 319.9L408.8 374.9C418.2 384.3 418.2 399.5 408.8 408.8C399.4 418.1 384.2 418.2 374.9 408.8L319.9 353.8L264.9 408.8C255.5 418.2 240.3 418.2 231 408.8C221.7 399.4 221.6 384.2 231 374.9L286 319.9L231 264.9C221.6 255.5 221.6 240.3 231 231z\"\/><\/svg><\/button><div class='splide__track'><div class='splide__list'> \n<figure class=\"wp-block-image splide__slide size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"1480\" src=\"https:\/\/vdhmachinery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/PHOTO-2025-04-03-13-52-04-576x1024.jpg\" alt=\"VDH-MP40 PDR side view\" class=\"wp-image-1480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vdhmachinery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/PHOTO-2025-04-03-13-52-04-576x1024.jpg 576w, https:\/\/vdhmachinery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/PHOTO-2025-04-03-13-52-04-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/vdhmachinery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/PHOTO-2025-04-03-13-52-04-768x1365.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vdhmachinery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/PHOTO-2025-04-03-13-52-04-864x1536.jpg 864w, https:\/\/vdhmachinery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/PHOTO-2025-04-03-13-52-04.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image splide__slide size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"1479\" src=\"https:\/\/vdhmachinery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/PHOTO-2025-04-07-13-50-12-003-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"VDH-MP40 PDR angled front view\" class=\"wp-image-1479\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vdhmachinery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/PHOTO-2025-04-07-13-50-12-003-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vdhmachinery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/PHOTO-2025-04-07-13-50-12-003-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/vdhmachinery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/PHOTO-2025-04-07-13-50-12-003-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/vdhmachinery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/PHOTO-2025-04-07-13-50-12-003.jpg 1512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Successful collaboration<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The collaboration with Hammer &amp; Steel went very well. Thanks to our proven expertise in translating specific customer requirements into efficient and reliable machines, we were able to offer a solution that fully meets their needs. The positive experience with the previously delivered MP70 certainly contributed to this.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>MP machine principles<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>During the development of the MP series, we started from the following characteristics:<br\/>\u2013 Quality, only A-class components are used.<br\/>\u2013 Functional simplicity, conventionally wired with a PLC system which ensures safe control.<br\/>\u2013 Performance, due to our own design and experience, the machine often performs better than competitors.<br\/>\u2013 Ease of use, comfortable seat with adjustable armrests, complete cabin with excellent view of the project and the surroundings.<br\/>\u2013 Aesthetic finish, a lot of attention has been paid to the finish of the machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Within our company, we are gaining more and more experience in building new machines, including the <a href=\"https:\/\/vdheuvelwerkendam.nl\/services\/heien-funderen\/vdh-mp40\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>MP40<\/strong><\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/vdheuvelwerkendam.nl\/services\/heien-funderen\/vdh-mp60\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>MP60<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new MP40 from Hammer &amp; Steel is the sixth new type of machine that we have developed and built in-house. With the MP40, Hammer &amp; Steel is further expanding its capabilities, and we are proud of another successful project. We are proud to contribute to the growth and success of Hammer &amp; Steel!  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Would you like more information about this VDH-MP machine?
