Application Scenarios
The CX800 Core Drilling Rig is designed for a wide range of geological and exploration drilling tasks. It is ideal for mineral exploration, geotechnical investigation, core sampling, and scientific research drilling in complex terrains. With its powerful torque output, intelligent hydraulic control, and telescopic mast, the CX800 can efficiently handle both surface and shallow-depth coring operations using 3-meter drill rods.
Thanks to its wireless remote-controlled crawler chassis and hydraulic leveling legs, the rig can easily adapt to various ground conditions such as mountains, plateaus, and uneven sites. This makes it especially suitable for field exploration in remote or rugged environments, ensuring high productivity, stability, and safety during continuous drilling operations.
Packaging & Shipping
The CX800 Core Drilling Rig features a compact structure and optimized dimensions, allowing for easy and cost-effective transportation. The rig can be loaded into standard 20ft or 40ft containers for international shipping or transported by flatbed truck for domestic delivery.
Its foldable mast, detachable feed beam, and hydraulic crawler undercarriage make disassembly and reassembly simple, reducing overall transport height and volume. This ensures safe handling and efficient logistics during long-distance transit.
For field operations in remote areas, the CX800 can be self-propelled via its crawler tracks or towed by construction vehicles, enabling flexible deployment and quick site relocation—ideal for dynamic exploration projects across diverse terrains.
