New SR line and Microdrilling rigs on display at CONEXPO

Soilmec will showcase three new drill rigs equipped with Tier 4 engines at CONEXPO in Las Vegas, Nevada (March 8 - 4, 2014). Models include the new SR-45 and SR-75 for large diameter piles, and the new SM-17 for microdrilling and anchoring.

Soilmec’s new SR line
The latest models not only exceed Tier 4 emissions requirements, but also deliver more power, efficiency and flexibility. Because “Solutions provider” means ensuring the best solution for our customers’ drilling needs,

The SR-45 and SR-75 are designed for large diameter drilling of cased or uncased bored piles, continuous flight auger piles, cased augered piles, displacement piles, and Turbojet® piles. The SR-45 can be equipped ondemand with a rat-hole kit that enables drilling up to 61.5 m (200 ft) depth (5x13.5 kelly bar) with a crowd cylinder system. With a low-headroom mast, the SR-75 is also suitable for low headroom applications.

Soilmec’s new microdrilling rig
The SM-17 is a multipurpose drill rig engineered to build micropiles, tie-backs, anchors, jet grouting and mini-piles. Rig versatility is enhanced by the range of flexibility in the rotary heads, clamp, and joint breakers, and modular masts with variable rotary head travel. New high-strength steel masts support 5th generation moving rotaries for multipurpose use.
