Sonic Rigs

Main Content

R-64, R-77, R-79 TSI 150 Mini-Sonic

Earth Drilling’s TerraSonic Mini Rig has the capability to drill to depths of greater than 244 m @ 150 mm hole diameter is mounted on 300mm wide tracks providing for low ground pressure (0.46 bar/6.7 psi). The compact, small footprint combined with a powerful 50K Sonic Head provides for an extreme versatility for delicate drilling scopes in hard to reach and sensitive areas.

Benefits

  • Continuous, relatively undisturbed samples
  • Waste reduction (up to 80% reduction over conventional drilling)
  • Speed. Sonic drilling is faster than conventional overburden drilling methods
  • Diedrich Drop Hammer, SPT, Shelby Tube Sampling and Coring capability

R-49 LS 250 MiniSonic Rig

Earth Drilling’s LS 250 MiniSonic Rig has the capability to drill to depths of greater than 60 m and is mounted on 600 mm wide tracks so it has low ground pressure (0.28 bar/4 psi). The compact, small footprint makes it perfect for small drill pads, environmentally fragile areas and hard to reach sites.

Benefits

  • Continuous, relatively undisturbed samples
  • Waste reduction (up to 80% reduction over conventional drilling)
  • Speed. Sonic drilling is faster than conventional overburden drilling methods
  • Diedrich Drop Hammer, SPT, Shelby Tube Sampling and Coring capability
