Geared for versatile performance

The structurally sound undercarriage, combined with heavy-duty frames and pull-down chains, allows for easy maneuverability over rugged mining terrains. The angle drilling option drives performance with a variety of applications. The rig mast can also be set in 5° increments, from 0 to 30°.

High-powered, sustainable rotary drilling

The engine and compressor allow for optimized hole flushing and powerful rotary drilling. Operating at lower speeds and load factors ensures longevity. Additional features like load sensing and fan speed control aid performance.

Accelerated drill pipe handling and tram speeds

Improved pipe handling and faster tram speeds contribute to shorter cycle times and more holes drilled, enhancing productivity.

Powerful drilling that meets emissions requirements

A compact and stable drilling platform available with a tier 4 engine to meet emissions requirements.
