A pipelayer is a heavy machine designed with tractor feet to navigate short distances. Its attachable boom with cables is used to collect the diameter of the pipe and slowly lower it into a trench. Several pipelayers can work in conjunction to lay down heavy pipes. The pipeline is gaining momentum worldwide, including in Sub-Saharan Africa making pipelayers an integral part of this region's development.
Used pipelayers cost anywhere from $50,000 to $500,000.
The top brands for Pipelayers are Caterpillar and Volvo.
Pipelayers provide the ability to quickly create pipelines by lifting and positioning assembled pipe and lowering it into trenches.
A fully hydraulic-controlled pipelayer will weigh 121,500 lbs.
Pipelayers can swing 360 degrees for optimum maneuverability. It's important for an operator to have a full view of their surroundings at all times. It's also essential that an operator knows how to inspect the machine, including; wire rope, blocks, winch and mainframe, hydraulic oil level, winch gear oil level, and boom stop switch.
When buying a used pipelayer, check the inspection report to get a full understanding of the machine. Check the undercarriage, trackpads, bolts, engine, hydraulics, and canopy.
The more hours a pipelayer logs, the more likely specific components will need to be replaced or repaired. The essential pieces are the undercarriage, engine, hydraulics, and boom.
The average pipelayer salary in the United States is around $38,820 per year.
You can learn to become a pipelayer operator through trade school, finding an experienced operator, or an apprenticeship program. View our full guide here: https://www.boomandbucket.com/blog/how-to-become-a-heavy-equipment-operator
