New NPC ‘Heavy Duty CFA Links’
Published 21/11 at 10:04Due to the attributes of the National Pile Cropper (NPC) range, the inhouse developed and manufactured range of hydraulic pile croppers is now being extensively used throughout the United Kingdom, Australia and increasingly, Europe. The latest development to the range is an upgrade to its Heavy Duty CFA Links to cope with even the most demanding of projects.
With a management team with over 100 years of experience in the piling industry, National Pile Croppers (NPC) has gone from strength to strength. The company has been developing and supplying its own line of patented customer focused pile cropping solutions to a wide span of customers, ranging from multinationals working on HS2 and specialist piling companies, to regional contractors and local ground workers. All have benefitted from the close relationships developed with the NPC team that simply focuses on providing what customers need, when they need it.
As customer requirements and project requirements change, so does the NPC product portfolio. “We continually keep in close contact with our customers and use the feedback from our croppers being used in the field to produce the equipment we know our customers require in order to be more efficient, productive and safe. Our latest development is the direct result of working with our customers – including some of the largest civil engineering companies in Europe – on some very large projects that required a heavy duty solution,” says NPC director, Lee Aston.
Effective cropping power
For dealing with augured (round) piles, NPC developed the ‘CFA’ and ‘HD’ range, which cuts circular augured concrete piles ranging from 300mm to 2,000mm in diameter. Specifically in response to meet customer demands, the latest version of the NPC Heavy Duty CFA Links has a new and improved design to help achieve minimal downtime for working to demanding timescales, in demanding conditions. Since their introduction, they are said to have become the go-to option for the reduction of larger diameter piles, being able to crop piles up to and above 2m in diameter.
The NPC Heavy Duty CFA Links are just the latest development from the pile cropping company that is said to have fast become the UK’s, and increasingly Europe, North America and Australia’s leading supplier of pile cropping solutions. It is intended to update the entire product range over the next 18 months in order to meet ever developing customer requirements.
