Underground Drilling Rigs

Engineered for confined spaces and challenging underground conditions, these underground drill rigs are ideal for mine development, grade control, and underground exploration. Compact, highly maneuverable, and built with safety as a priority, they provide powerful drilling performance while operating within the strict spatial and ventilation constraints of mines and tunnels.

We engineer an extensive range of underground drill rigs for mining development and production. Available in a variety of feed lengths, boom configurations and size classes, our Underground Core Drilling maximize productivity while delivering the lowest cost per meter. 

Key Features of Underground Drilling Rigs

1. Compact Design for Confined Spaces

Specially engineered frame structure allows operation in narrow tunnels and low-height mining areas without sacrificing performance.

2. Strong Drilling Performance

Despite compact size, the hydraulic system delivers:

  • Stable torque output
  • High penetration rate
  • Excellent core recovery

3. Safety-First Engineering

Designed with mining safety standards in mind, including:

  • Stable center of gravity
  • Operator protection structure
  • Reliable hydraulic control system

4. Flexible Configuration Options

Available in multiple feed lengths, mast types, and boom configurations to meet different mining conditions.
