Montabert has taken its CPA Drill line to a new level by incorporating advanced technologies into enhancing existing products.

Montabert introduced its new series of CPA rock drills — advanced hydraulic attachments that transform an excavator into a surface drilling machine. Additionally, the company also announced the launch of a new drifter model — the HC55 — Montabert's most compact drifter yet.

CPA Rock Drills

Drawing from extensive experience in drilling and attachments, Montabert has taken its CPA Drill line to a new level by incorporating advanced technologies into enhancing existing products. Typical applications for Montabert CPA Drills include:

• Blasting holes
• Trenches and road openings
• Utility works
• Rock bolting, draining and tie-back
• Rough-terrain construction
• High-reach drilling
• Foundation work

Available in four models, all Montabert CPA Drills include the following features:

• Intelligent rock-sensing technology: Reduces production costs via tooling protection as it optimizes blasting through precision drilling.
• Standard radio remote control: Full attachment control, including 2D/3D angle indicator and depth measurement with autostop.
• Fast operation: Idle time reduction and quick rod installation.
• Lightweight: aluminum feed beam reduces attachment weight, increasing maneuverability and allowing extra mounting options.
• Versatility: Carousel offers a wide range of drilling capacities (shanks, number of rods).
• Smart hydraulic dust collector: Optimizes dust filter lifespan with automatic filter-cleaning while drilling.
• Remote product support: Bluetooth connection with smartphone for diagnostics, monitoring, and factory assistance.

HC55 — Montabert's Most Compact Drifter Yet

Montabert hydraulic drifters are recognized worldwide for their high performance, reliability, long maintenance intervals, and low tool consumption, the manufacturer said.

During Intermat this year, Montabert launched the most compact and fastest underground drill in its range: the HC55. The HC55 features a number of developments. For example, a new hydraulic dampener system responds automatically to rock conditions, adapting the drill's operation to match, thus increasing productivity while protecting the lifespan of the striking bars.

Primarily designed for bolting applications, this 15 kW drill is very easy to install on drill rigs due to its minimal footprint, reversibility and symmetrical connections. Engineered to withstand the toughest applications and the most extreme working environments, the nose of the HC55 has been reinforced to resist corrosion, while the unit includes five seals and an additional protection system that further work to extend wear-part lifespan.

The HC55 is compatible with R28 and R32 female couplings, as well as R32, R38 and T38 male couplings.
