Sonic drilling employs a high-frequency (150 Hz) technique to penetrate soil layers effectively. The drill head's oscillator generates resonating energy directed into the borehole. This energy, combined with rotational movement, evenly acts on the drill bit and equipment. Operators can adjust sonic vibration to match soil conditions.
Sonic drilling is ideal when avoiding drilling mud, air, or water is necessary. It's preferred for geotechnical, geo-construction, and environmental applications. In specific projects, running dry is preferable to using water or air. Sonic drilling excels in overburden conditions, offering cost savings in environmental projects and preventing disturbances in mining projects.
Empire United's sonic drilling rigs come equipped with a comprehensive array of features. However, our available tooling options offer the opportunity to further enhance and customize your machine's capabilities. Our diverse selection of tools not only promotes enhanced safety and improved ergonomics but also facilitates the acquisition of higher-quality samples.
