51,000 LB Radial Drill
Western Dynamics has just completed a stacked radial Hagglunds
motor drill. With cross-port relief pressure protection, case flushing for
preheating and cooling, and the ability to unload one motor for high speed
operation. The first of many radial drill designs under development at Western
Dynamics, Inc.
The dill is currently drilling 30" diameter holes at 60-feet
depth in some very hard material. The next 51,000 Lbs torque drill under construction will
be faster, lighter and have fewer connections to the power unit. |
