Our rigs are built from experience in water-well and geothermal drilling.
A crawler rig is an advanced unit used mainly in geotechnics or construction to make deep holes in the ground. Thanks to its design and modern technology it is highly effective and can be used in varied terrain. Key components include:
Head
The heart of the rig, responsible for rotating the drilling tool. The head is typically strong and durable and can rotate at different speeds matched to soil type and depth. It has mechanisms for easy tool changes — bits or augers — which increases versatility.
Tracks
They let the rig move on different surfaces, from soft ground to harder, stony beds. Rubber tracks reduce the risk of damaging more delicate pavements and provide grip, stability and mobility.
Hydraulic cylinders for levelling
They allow precise positioning of the rig, which is key to accuracy and drilling efficiency.
Pumps
Needed to cool drilling tools and remove cuttings from the hole. Pumps must be strong enough to deliver the right volume of water under pressure for effective drilling and a clean hole.
Extra features such as 3-metre welded board rods, efficient control hydraulics, head lift of 1.5 metres per second, and a choice between a single- or twin-motor head make the crawler rig a highly functional, versatile tool for construction and geotechnics.
