Shanghai Zhenzhong's EP series resonance-free variable-frequency variable-torque electric-drive vibratory hammer provided key technical support for the construction of the Changtai Yangtze River Bridge, helping this world-class project to be successfully completed and opened to traffic, demonstrating the outstanding level of China's high-end equipment manufacturing industry.

Part 01World-Class Project Background and Engineering Challenges

Recently, the Changtai Yangtze River Bridge, in which the Second Harbor Engineering Company participated in construction, was officially opened to traffic. This river-crossing corridor posed enormous challenges in design and construction: the main bridge river-crossing section is 10.03 kilometers long, and the main navigation channel adopts a long-span cable-stayed bridge design that accommodates both expressway and railway traffic, providing important support for transportation development in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River.



Part 02Technical Advantages of the EP Series Vibratory Hammer

The river-crossing section of the bridge features deep water and complex geology, compounded by frequent wind and waves on the river surface, which brought considerable difficulty to pile foundation construction. Key stages such as pile driving and pile extraction required high-precision, low-failure-rate equipment to ensure construction safety and efficiency.

Shanghai Zhenzhong's EP series resonance-free variable-frequency variable-torque electric-drive vibratory hammer was applied to this project, leveraging its core technical advantages. This series of equipment features a resonance-free function that avoids resonance damage during start-up and shutdown; the variable-frequency variable-torque control function enables real-time adjustment of the eccentric moment during construction to adapt to different soil layers and improve construction efficiency; the "zero-torque variable-frequency start" feature reduces the power supply load, allowing long-term continuous operation and enhancing construction flexibility; and the horizontal low-center-of-gravity structure and vibration damping system improve equipment stability under wind and wave conditions on the river surface.


During construction, our after-sales service personnel worked closely with the construction unit to follow up on the pile foundation construction project. Taking into account on-site geological, water depth, and wind and wave conditions, they adjusted the equipment and formulated precise operating specifications to ensure that each pile was driven and extracted in accordance with design requirements.

Through the application of the EP series vibratory pile hammer, pile driving and extraction operations were successfully completed, with construction precision and efficiency meeting expectations, providing reliable assurance for the rapid formation of the bridge foundation while ensuring construction safety and high equipment availability.




Part 03Supporting the Construction of a Modern Bridge Industry Demonstration Base
The opening of the Changtai Yangtze River Bridge not only improves regional transportation but also demonstrates progress in domestic bridge construction technology and equipment manufacturing. The bridge connects the cities of Changzhou and Taizhou, and after opening, travel time between the two cities will be shortened from the current 1 hour and 20 minutes to just over 20 minutes, further promoting the coordinated development of cross-river urban agglomerations and holding great significance for serving the construction of the "Yangtze River Economic Belt" and the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta.

In the future, as the "New Infrastructure" and "Transportation Powerhouse" strategies are further advanced, the EP series resonance-free variable-frequency variable-torque electric-drive vibratory hammer will continue to be iterated and upgraded, empowering more mega-projects with smarter, greener, and more efficient technical strength and helping China's bridge construction cause reach new heights!
