About the EK250 Bottom Drive CFA

The EK250 Bottom Drive CFA is configured using The revolutionary patented system Bottom Drive CFA that has the following advantages:

  • The new Cat 340 Next Gen powered by a fuel efficient Tier 4 Final C9.1 ACERT engine.
  • Significant improvement of stability, providing greater security in the operation of CFA
  • Optimal ratio of drilling depth x equipment weight due to lower center of gravity, enabling lower transport weight and lower transportation costs.
  • Hydraulic pull-down on the rotary, centered to the drilling auger, improving the penetration in hard soils.
  • Highly effective drilling torques due to the robust drilling head.
  • Better efficiency of power due to the short length of hydraulic hoses that feed the drilling head, resulting in lower pressure loss.
  • Lighter drilling masts as a result of there being no need to resist high drilling torque at the top.
  • Higher Extraction force, resulting from the addition of push-up of the cylinder to the winch extraction force.
Base:
  • The new Cat 340 Next Gen powered by a fuel efficient Tier 4 Final C9.1 ACERT engine.
  • Equipped with CAT Vision Link that allows management to monitor machine operations and maintenance data online.
Undercarriage:
  • Caterpillar variable undercarriage VH5000/4300/800. Reinforced frame H style variable undercarriage.
Mast:
  • Reinforced mast, with high resistance steel Weldox 700.
Main Winch:
  • Special groove for better cable winding and longer cable life.
  • Press-roller included.
  • 2 gears allows for both high speed and high pulling force.
  • Automatic gear shifting, for seamless operation, high production.
  • Automatic down the hole winch stop.
  • Free willing winch during crowd operation.
  • Hydraulic and mechanic brake.
  • Hydraulic measurement of pulling force displayed in the cabin.
Rotary:
  • Robust design, with 2 slewing bearings on top and bottom, robust pinion and main gear.
  • 2 groups of Hydraulic Motor / Planetary Gears for high torque and long life.
  • Anti-cavitation, anti-shock and cooling system for longer hydraulic motor life.
  • Power-shift for High spin-off speed (120rpm) for quick discharge of soil.
  • 3 operation speeds and 3 spinoff speeds. For high torque and high speeds.
  • Automatic gear shifting, for seamless operation, high production.
  • Exchangeable keys, bolted. No need to rebuild keys by welding inside the rotary.
  • Hydraulic measurement of torque displayed in the cabin for the operator.
Cab:
  • AM/FM Radio, Air conditioning/Heating.
  • ROPS cab & Top protection.
  • LCD monitor for Engine and Hydraulics computer, with diagnostic system.
  • CZM Canbus System for Drilling Monitoring with auto functions.
