CPT Trailer
The CPT Trailer from A.P. van den Berg provides a powerful and cost-effective solution for geotechnical soil investigation, delivering the performance of larger CPT rigs at a fraction of the cost. With a pushing force of up to 20 tons, this compact system is perfectly suited for occasional Cone Penetration Tests (CPTs) and projects in hard-to-reach locations. Its low overall weight, combined with the smart use of ground anchors, ensures excellent stability and reliable performance in a wide range of soil conditions.
CPT Trailer: powerful and cost-effective solution for soil investigation
With a total weight between 2,500 and 3,500 kg and a tandem axle with a short wheelbase, the CPT Trailer is highly maneuverable and easy to position. This makes it ideal for use in urban environments, rural areas, and confined construction sites. Although the trailer itself has limited ballast, the required reaction force is efficiently generated by ground anchors, ensuring stability and reliable performance during CPT operations.

Specifications CPT Trailer
The trailer is equipped with the HYSON pushing system, ensuring robust and consistent CPT performance. Three hydraulic jacks allow the system to be accurately levelled, even on uneven terrain. Soil anchors can be installed in two ways: using a hand-operated device or, for faster and more efficient operation, the optional HYGAND hydraulic anchor setting unit.
In addition, a range of extensions and accessories is available, including a hydraulic catching clamp, pull/push clamps for 36 mm and 25 mm rods, and a weather protecting housing for the data acquisition system.
