DESCRIPTION
Built to the highest standards, the 2017 Atlas Copco TH60 Rig has a long history for robust and reliable performance. This top-head drive PTO drill rig has a strong, mid-weight design that’s ideal for waterwell, dewatering, geothermal, uranium drilling and many more deep-hole applications.
Strong derrick
The lattice-design derrick offers an excellent strength-to-weight ratio. Once it has been lifted into the upright position by the two hydraulic cylinders operated from the driller’s console, it is bolted in place at the bottom of the tower. Derrick locking pins are optional as well.
Tough mainframe
Without a rigid base, a rig is prone to flex during drilling. That can lead to premature frame failure, deviation down the hole and additional vibration on the driller’s platform. For this reason, Epiroc designed the TH60 mainframe to be one of the toughest drills in its class on the market today. They believe the additional investment in this area pays off, especially when it comes to the life of the drill.
Intelligent air regulation
The Electronic Air Regulation System (E.A.R.S.) comes standard with the TH60, allowing the operator to remain in control of both the flow and pressure. This intelligent system monitors air requirements and automatically adjusts the air inlet valve to match the demand. Advantages of this system include variable air flow to control the hole and develop the well, as well as variable pressure for better down-the-hole hammer control. Fuel consumption is also reduced as a result of controlled flow and pressure when maximum flow/pressure is not required. As an added benefit, the sealed actuation unit prevents freezing in cold climates. Furthermore, E.A.R.S. replaces the need for air regulation air lines, eliminating freeze up issues than can occur.
