Getting Into A Tight Spot

Remote Controlled Robot HelpsĀ Bronte Construction Tackle A Fragile Challenge.

When Bronte Construction Was Bidding The Pelee Point Boardwalk Restoration Project, They Knew They Were Signing Themselves Up For A Challenge. Tasked With Repairing A Decade Old Boardwalk In The Provincial Parkā€™s Wetlands, Bronteā€™s Obstacle Was To Figure Out A Way To Deliver The Necessary Torque Required To Drive Piles From A Structure Not Strong Enough To Support The Weight Of The Machines That Could Ordinarily Deliver It.

ā€œWe put our heads together to come up with a creative solutionā€, said Mike Kelly Bronteā€™s Deep Foundation Superintendent

Bronte, in the end, teamed up with Creighton Rock Drill in Mississauga to see if they could both come up with a better solution. Collectively, they decided to deploy the Husqvarna DXR 140 remote-controlled demolition robot. Ā Not only are these highly precise, maneuverable and stable machines able to work in the tightest and most dangerous job situations, but theyā€™re also capable of delivering tremendous power at a fraction of the weight.

Bronte was able to operate and maneuver the machine directly from the boardwalk! it also had no difficulty driving the piles into the wetlands. It became clear to both Bronte and Creighton Rock that the possibilities of the DXR could only be limited by the imaginations of those using it.

ā€œIt was the perfect tool for the job. Itā€™ll be really exciting to see what weā€™ll be able to do with it nextā€ said Mike Kelly.
