Description
The LX11™ is a powerful medium-sized exploration multipurpose drill capable of both diamond coring and reverse circulation drilling. The LX11 is ideal for all drilling contractors who need the flexibility of a multipurpose machine in their fleets. The LX11 is a drill that provides increased safety, operational flexibility with a low overall cost of ownership.
TOP DRIVE DRILL HEAD
Drill at high speed for coring, up to 1200 RPM. Switch to low gear for rotary drilling and achieve maximum torque of 7.8 kNm @ 100 rpm. The LX11 feed system can achieve a 7.2 meter stroke allowing 6 meter rods to be pulled using the head.
OPTIONAL ROD PRESENTER
For safe and efficient handling of reverse circulation, rotary, and diamond coring rods.
INTERLOCKED SAFETY CAGE
Protects the operators from the rotating drill string. If the guard is opened during drilling, feed speed and rotation is reduced.
OPTIONAL 1200 CFM CYCLONE
For reverse circulation drilling.
MULTIPURPOSE DRILLING APPLICATIONS
The LX11 is capable of wireline and conventional coring, undisturbed sampling and testing, geological work, ground consolidation drilling, water well drilling, auger drilling, jet grouting, micropiling, soil nailing, and reverse circulation drilling.
