Description
The LF™70, one of the most recognized small-format drills in the industry, is a flyable rig with a depth capacity of 700 m that can be assembled in less than an hour. With its innovative modular design, this lightweight exploration rig is ideal for drilling in remote locations.
MOBILITY
The LF™70 modular design consists of seven sections that are heliportable for reaching remote locations. This drill reduces downtime when mobilizing between sites and significantly decreases the environmental impact to a drill site.
MODULAR DESIGN
With just seven components, it takes less than one hour to pull down the rig and the same amount of time to reassemble it.
LIGHTWEIGHT
Special attention was given to the overall weight and dimension of the drill’s design. Each of its seven components weigh less than 585 kg and are easily transportable by helicopter. The LF70 is ideal for drilling in confined, remote locations.
FEATURES
1. SOLID STRUCTURAL DESIGN
Rigid design provides superior performance and reliability even under the toughest conditions.
2. NITRO CHUCK™
The patented nitrogen gas spring jaws with hydraulic open/spring-close function ensures a fail-safe operation.
3. SIMPLE HYDRAULIC DESIGN
Direct-coupled hydraulic pumps with a PTO-driven auxiliary pump allow for easy maintenance.
4. FLYABLE
The LF™70 easily breaks down into seven flyable modules with a maximum weight of 585 kg (1,290 lbs).
5. PQ ROTATION UNIT
Four-speed transmission delivers high torque when needed, and high speed for diamond drilling.
6. SELF-CONTAINED OPERATOR PANEL
The simple hydraulic system is easy to operate and maintain while lift-to-shift levers provide additional operator safety
