Atlas Pile Testing Systems have introduced the Titan 650 to China’s National Academic Piling Conference.
Atlas founder Rory O’Rourke was invited to speak at the prestigious event in Hefi to hundreds of technicians and potential customers.
He told delegates, via an interpreter, of the safety benefits of the Titan 650 and of its ability to control pile tests remotely.
He said: “It was an honour to be asked to present and there was no doubt that the audience were genuinely interested in the Titan 650 and the advantages it offers to the industry.
“There was no real issue with the language barrier as pile testing is the same the world over.
‘But it is clear that the technological advances offered by the Titan 650 could be hugely advantageous to the construction industry in China and across Asia.
“Some, not all, but some of the techniques used across Asia are outdated and rely on manual labour which can be dangerous and time intensive.
“The Titan 650 offers a huge advancement for piling companies across Asia and the feedback was incredible and we hope we can raise the standards of the industry worldwide.”
O’Rourke spoke at the Piling Conference in Hefi on the second leg of a three-week tour across China addressing pile testing experts and members of staff at Earth Products China, or EPC, who have entered into a strategic partnership with Atlas Pile Testing Systems.
The Titan 650, the world’s first fully automated and remotely controllable pile testing system has been hailed the safest, most accurate pile testing system on the market and is fully compliant with the ICESPERWall Third Edition.
