APE is being featured in a new TV show on the Discovery Channel. The story will show APE’s Quad Kong driving 40-foot diameter concrete piles in China. The Discovery Channel film crew visited the APE facility in Kent to see the launching of the third Model 600 and film APE’s testing procedures.
APE has shipped the new APE Model 250 Variable Moment to New Jersey. The new heavy metal enhanced machine is the largest variable moment machine in the world, out flanking both the PVE and PTC machines. The technology includes a new type of phase shifter developed by APE engineers. APE has already launched its smaller Model 120V variable moment machine which has been working successfully for over a year with the Army Corps of Engineers.
This is the Bainbridge Island Ferry Terminal Dolphin Replacement. Joe Claus is running the job. An APE Model 300 pre-places the 36″ Dolphin pile and a D46 drives them to tip elevation.
The 625 Power Unit is also modified to operate an APE 100 Driver/Extractor with a wood clamp installed on it to pull the older and damaged wood pile dolphins.
