Whether you need a self-contained, powerful, all-terrain drill with big carrying capacity, or a compact machine for limited-access jobs, we've got the rig that's right for you. The CME-850X is the ultimate all-terrain drill. Ground bearing pressure is only 2.9 psi. The steel grouser tracks can get you and your drilling tools to job locations inaccessible to truck or even ATV-mounted drills. The CME-850XR rough-terrain drill has rubber tracks and won't damage most pavement so you can also use it anywhere you might use a truck-mounted drill. Both rigs feature 14,925 foot pounds of torque and 28,275 pounds of retract force and are capable of drilling holes up to 14 3/4 inches in diameter using hollow stem augers. If you need a more compact machine for tight working spaces, the remote-controlled CME-300 tracked carrier is available with your choice of several different CME drills mounted on it, including the CME-45C and the CME-55. For low clearance operations, you can choose the CME-55LC or the CME-55LCX, which puts out an impressive 12,162 foot pounds of rotary torque. Since we design and build our carriers specifically for our drills, there are no compromises. Weight distribution and center of gravity are optimized for maximum balance and stability. And a single engine power source means lower maintenance costs. All of these rigs are available with the optional features you need to maximize your drilling and sampling efficiency. They can be equipped with slide bases, auger racks, toolboxes, a hydraulic rod holder/breakout wrench system, an SPT hammer, and much more. Give us a call to find out how CME track-mounted drills can increase your business by allowing you to take jobs others can't get to. After all, our track record is second to none.
