Cable plough machines and laying systems manufacturer

Which cable plough is used for which soil conditions?

FOECK cable ploughs are suitable for all common ground conditions. Whether mud, gravel, clay, sandy and dry, hard and stony or frozen ground - with the systems from FOECK you can master any terrain. Even laying cables and pipes through ditches, streams, rivers or tidal flats is no problem. The decision in favour of a particular model depends more on the required depth and the diameter of the material to be laid. More on the topic: Laying underground cables

What does the support look like after the purchase of the equipment?

We always have a close contact to our customers. If something should be damaged, we are at your side with spare parts and advice. It is also possible to get advice or on-site support on complicated construction stages. Refresher courses are also offered.

Why is it economical to use a laying system from FOECK?

The conventional laying of cables and pipes in open trench construction requires numerous work steps, which make the procedure time-consuming and costly. With a cable plough from FOECK, you only need one single operation, and that at a laying rate of up to 1,500 metres per hour. Even the parallel laying of several cables and pipes can be carried out efficiently and without any problems. In addition, FOECK cable ploughs work in a very environmentally friendly way, as normally neither humus has to be removed nor trees and bushes. The fuel consumption is of course also considerably lower than wit

Do I receive personal advice on my building project and the appropriate machines?

Of course, intensive consultation is one of our primary services. We would be pleased to arrange a personal meeting with you to explain the technical details and the possible applications of our machines and systems. Above all, however, as a manufacturer we can also respond to individual requests and make modifications that you absolutely need for your work. Another service we offer is to take a look at your construction site and document the plough line so that you know exactly what is actually ploughable. Please feel free to call us, send us an e-mail or simply use our contact form to make a

Can the plough also work without a winch pulling vehicle?

No! What makes our equipment stand out is the high tractive force. In order to ensure continuous and high quality ploughing, traction is of the highest priority. Our machines can work up to a depth of 2.50m. With self-propelled cable ploughs, only a certain laying depth or relatively small cable/pipe diameters can be laid, as the resistance during ploughing is higher than the traction of the wheels or chains. And this is highly dependent on the nature of the soil and surface. In order to be able to keep a given depth constant, a high traction is essential, as the soil types can change quickly

What does a typical project process - from the inquiry to project implementation - normally look like?

You make the first step. First, describe your requirements for a trenchless laying system. We can then advise you in detail and together we can define all the necessary specifications. After the order has been placed, we will start the detailed project planning. If you then give us the green light, we will manufacture your machine and deliver it at the agreed time. At your request, we can also take care of ongoing maintenance and other services.
