EDM 30K-HP Heli Portable Diamond Drill

The EDM 30K-HP is a high-capacity diamond core rig designed for operation in remote locations only accessible by helicopter. With 30,000lbf of pullback, the rig can reach depths of 1500m (N+) making it one of the most powerful fly rigs on the market while maintaining a small footprint. Uniquely designed with a special slewing base, the rig can drill multiple holes on different azimuths from the same position without the need to move the rig.

The rig has been specifically designed for simple operation and ease of maintanance and servicing in the field and breaks down into 16 x sub 700kg modules for transportation. Despite its compact and modular design, the EDM 30K-HP has an impressive range of standard components and safety features making it one of the safest and most productive flyable rigs available.
