Ecology and economy - gentle laying with our ploughing system

Seven reasons why the FOECK laying-plough system is the most advanced and cost-effective way of laying cables or pipes in the ground:

• Only one working step is required when laying with the FOECK laying plough. The flexibility and mobility of the system keeps set-up times to a minimum. This means you can drive to several sites to carry out laying work in one day.
• No need for preparatory work which damages the natural environment: removal of trees and shrubs can be minimised or avoided altogether.
• In many cases, the cable/pipe to be laid can be carried along directly on the laying plough. In some cases, this saves the use of a separate special trailer with winch vehicle.
• With the FOECK laying-plough system, there is no need to lay a time-consuming sand bed. Nonetheless, the cable or pipe can be laid in line with regulations and safely in accordance with DIN/EN 1610.
• Laying with the system from Walter Föckersperger causes minimal disruption and enables cost-effective laying materials to be used, without a reinforced protective shell. This is backed up by 55 years of experience laying cables and HDPE pipes.
• Low fuel consumption; plough laying uses approximately just 50 litres of diesel fuel per 1,000 metres of installation path. By way of comparison: laying the same path using a rotary hoe consumes 3 times as much and laying with an excavator consumes up to 10 times more diesel fuel.
• The high daily capacity of the FOECK plough (up to 10,000 metres) keeps pro-rata personnel costs down per metre laid.
