IHC FUNDEX Equipment designs, which is based in Goes, The Netherlands, manufactures multifunctional foundation rigs including the F3500 used for a variety of drilling and pile-driving methods. The functions of the F3500 include soil displacement drilling, CFA drilling, cast-in-situ and pre-cast pile-driving, making it one of the company’s flagship foundation rigs.
“Machines are getting bigger and increasingly complex,” said Andre Rottier, IHC FUNDEX Engineering, “and although safety is becoming more and more important, people do not necessarily have as much time to gain experience as in the past. But with a simulator, we can supply training to our clients’ operators — there is a market to sell training to customers all over the world.”
