Core Drill Rig C8c Core Drilling Rig With High-Altitude Capability
C8C: Powerful surface core drilling rig (second hand.)
C8C is the most powerful rig in the Boyles range and yet easy to
operate. This rig has a new feed system that further improves the
high productivity that has become a key characteristic of the
Boyles rigs. Boyles C8C has a depth capacity of 1 830 m. The newly
designed level-wind wireline winch rolls the wire evenly across the
full width of the drum.
The work environment around the rig has been carefully considered
during development. All major components are located to allow easy
access during maintenance. In order to control carbonemissions, the
rig features a modern Tier III engine.
The rig maintains its strong power and high performance at high
altitude, without the need for an additional high-altitude kit. The
whole hydraulic system is optimized to reduce the effects of low
air pressure in high altitude regions.
Features & benefits
- Reliability and trouble-free operation. Each and every component of
a Boyles rig is designed to withstand harsh operational conditions
with a minimum of service required.
- The power to get any job done. The rig comes with a powerful, Tier
III low emission engine that brings out the full capacity of the
rig, giving you the power to get the job done.
- Efficiency to collect more core per hour. The feed system is
designed to optimize the penetration speed, generating as much core
result as possible.
- Personal safety first. The rig is equipped with pressure rolls on
the main hoist, automatic stop functions on the drum and mast top,
easily accessible emergency stops etc. All for the driller’s
safety.
- High usability lets you focus on the job at hand. All key
components are accessible from a user-friendly and intuitive
control panel.
A powerful rig with high-altitude capacity
The Boyles C8C surface core drilling rig is part of the
Boylesrange, a new generation of quality drilling rigs that combine
productivity with a favorable life cycle cost.
The crawler mounted Boyles C8C is the most powerful rig in the
Boyles range and yet easy to operate.
Safe and ergonomic
• Three E stops on the drill unit are standard.
• Drill operators are protected from the rotation unit by asafety
cage.
• Possible to operate by feel while focusing on the drilling
operation, thanks to the operator friendly control panel.
Favorable high-altitude capability
• The rig maintains its power at high altitude without the need for
a high-altitude kit.
• The whole hydraulic system is optimized to reduce the effects of
low air pressure in high altitude regions.
Reliable and powerful
The Boyles C8C is equipped with:
• A powerful main hoist.
• A rod holder with a long-life gas cartridge that handlesrods from
BO to PO size and casing up to PW.
• A proven and reliable rotation unit with 4-speed gear box that
can generate the high rates of penetration with very high torque
when it is required.
• A reliable power unit, Cummins QSB 6.7 Tier III (179 kW),which
brings out the full capacity of the rig, resulting in higher
penetration rates to the bottom of the hole.
Radio remote controlled
The tramming functions of the rig can be precisely controlled from
a safe distance, eliminating the danger of being on or next to the
machine while in motion. If radio contact is lost, tramming will
stop automatically.
