Information transmission base of press-in technology RED HILL 1967

Do you guys know the piping machine? A machine in which piles are driven deep underground when building a large building or dike foundation. In Japan during the period of high economic growth, vibration and noise caused by pile driving became a major social problem.

Giken Seisakusho Co., Ltd., a development-type company in Kochi City, has overturned the common sense of pile driving machines and created vibration-free and noise-free press-in technology. In 1975, we invented the Silent PilerTM pile-injection machine, and succeeded in practical use for the first time in the world. In recent years, we have also contributed to the construction of disaster prevention infrastructure that can withstand disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, and floods around the world.

There is a research and exhibition facility in Akaoka-cho, Konan City that unravels the half-century history of such a unique company.

It is divided into three major areas: a demonstration exhibition hall, a creation hall (World Hangling Machine Museum), and a research building. Under the concept of "Hearing is a glance", actual equipment developed so far will be exhibited, and the construction site will be reproduced on a real scale. You can also see the actual "implant structure" formed by press-inted piles up close. It is a content that everyone can enjoy and learn beyond language and cultural barriers. Why don't you take your feet once?

Reservations must be made at least 7 days before the tour. Please make a reservation from the dedicated site below.
