Description
The LM™30SS is a compact and mobile drill rig, designed for quick setup and ease of moving from site to site. The drill utilizes a standard LM30 drill rig powered by a CAT®246D Skid Steer with a 54 kW diesel engine. Along with a lightweight control panel and hydraulic system, the LM30SS comes with an integrated positioner and turntable that enables it to drill holes at all angles from vertically-up to vertically-down.
COMPACT AND MOBILE
A skid steer engine is used as the carrier to transport the feed frame and water pump. This compact, mobile unit ensures quick setup time and ease of moving from site to site. The skid steer’s diesel engine is also used to power the hydraulics for drilling operation. No electricity supply is required.
LIGHTWEIGHT
The independent mounted control panel uses a lightweight polyethylene enclosure weighing only 40 kgs. Optional BQ™ head and BQ rod holder further minimizes the weight of this drill.
DURABLE
The direct drive 400 series feed frame is fitted with a regenerative circuit that provides high rod handling speed, increased safety and significantly reduced maintenance requirements.
DRILLING APPLICATION
The LM30SS is capable of both wireline and conventional coring.
