Their simple but efficient construction makes them reliable machines with a long service life. Thanks to their robust construction, they are suitable for intensive use on the most demanding projects.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Power through accelerated cylinder<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A distinctive feature of these hammers is the accelerated cylinder. Instead of just free fall, the drop weight is actively pushed down. This creates extra impact force, which ensures optimum energy transfer to piles (for concrete) or tubes (for steel). This significantly improves the efficiency and quality of the work.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Flexible frame options<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The hammers are available in various frame lengths, with the 3, 5, 7 and 9 ton frames as a base. In addition, versions are available with a drop height of 1200 mm for concrete and 1500 mm for steel. This makes the hammer easily adaptable to specific project requirements.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default 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=\"676\" height=\"720\" data-id=\"956\" src=\"https:\/\/vdhmachinery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Heijmans-hamer-3-9-ton.jpg\" alt=\"VDH Hammers &#x2013; 3 to 9 tons in the workplace\" class=\"wp-image-956\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vdhmachinery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Heijmans-hamer-3-9-ton.jpg 676w, https:\/\/vdhmachinery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Heijmans-hamer-3-9-ton-282x300.jpg 282w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 676px) 100vw, 676px\" \/><\/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=\"957\" src=\"https:\/\/vdhmachinery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Van-t-Hek-hamer-3-9-ton-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"VDH Hammers &#x2013; 3 to 9 tons on plates\" class=\"wp-image-957\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vdhmachinery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Van-t-Hek-hamer-3-9-ton-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vdhmachinery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Van-t-Hek-hamer-3-9-ton-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/vdhmachinery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Van-t-Hek-hamer-3-9-ton-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/vdhmachinery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Van-t-Hek-hamer-3-9-ton.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Durability and maintenance<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The VDH Hammers \u2013 3 to 9 tons \u2013 have a long service life and require little maintenance.
