In respectful remembrance Ton Kraak

Sliedrecht, February 20st, 2019 – It is with great sadness that we regret to have to inform you of the sudden death of:

Ton Kraak

Chairman of the Advisory Board, Founder, shareholder and, until very recently, CEO of Dieseko Group

1962 - 2019

Ton (57) passed away during a holiday with his family in Marrakech.

He was a passionate entrepreneur; he was energetic and always able to get others to enthuse about his ideas. At all times, Ton was completely on the ball. Together with his staff, he secured the company’s international breakthrough. Ever considerate of everyone’s needs, his door was always open to others. In Ton we lose a very committed leader, colleague and friend.

Ton is survived by his loving wife Karen, his daughter Annemijn and his son Floris. We wish them all much strength in this difficult time.

Words cannot express the void that was left with us. He will be greatly missed.

You may send your condolences to a special condoleances website (dutch language)

Resonating and drilling combined.

Without doubt, the PVE RD260 Resonator is the most important innovation in the field of vibro technology since 20 years. Without vibration, a profile is brought to its natural frequency, as a result of which it drives itself into the ground like a spring. A new application is now available for this vibration-free technology: a combination of resonating and drilling. With this leader-guided combination of Resonator and rotary head, we created a powerful tool with new applications such as the placement of tubes (up to 30 metres long), micropiles and anchors that are driven into the ground quickly and without vibration. On the photographs, 37 metre long tie bars were being installed.

This Resonator-Drill combination is now available for rent from the Dieseko Group.

Size matters

At the end of last year, Dieseko Group introduced 2 compact hydraulic power packs. The 200 and 450 are the long awaited successors of a classic compact series from the nineties. With 230 and 465 L/min respectively and equipped with an adjusted manifold that is suitable for driving vibratory hammers, rotary heads, winches, etc.

Mobility is a major benefit of such a compact set: With weights as low as approx. 3 (200) and 5.3 tonnes in an extremely small housing, it is possible to transport a set using a standard box truck. A major advantage if the equipment is to be used on many different locations.

These power packs are provided with a Stage IV / Tier 4F Volvo engine with AdBlue and biodegradable oil, as well as the new iQan MD4 control system with wireless remote control. The compact power packs have a significantly lower energy consumption and are also much more silent, thanks to different filters and the visco drive of the radiator fan, amongst other things. Size matters, they say at Dieseko Group.

The Dieseko Group is the result of a merger between two Dutch based companies: Piling & Vibro Equipment (PVE) and International Construction Equipment (ICE).
The Dieseko Group is specialised in the engineering, production, rental and sales of vibratory hammers (Variable Moment, High Frequency), ring and linear vibratory hammers, pressing machines, power packs (200 – 5000 kW), vibroflots and clamp systems. Within the holding, PVE and ICE are specialised in hydraulic vibratory hammers.
In 2014 Dieseko Group PVE Piling & Drilling Rigs joined the group.
