MD6380

Designed for large bore hole production drilling in very hard rock, the ultra-class Cat^® MD6380 provides the optimal mix of on-board air, feed force, rotary torque and machine mobility. It’s a powerful, rugged machine that can stand up to the conditions of any site and deliver reliable performance with high availability. Robust structures and mast with an integral a-frame allow it to stand up to the toughest conditions, so it delivers long life and reliable performance. With a next-generation cab and operator station, the MD6380 is designed to keep operators comfortable and productive all shift long. Designed to drill holes from 251-381 mm (9.875-15 in) in diameter, the MD6380 is is optimized for single-pass or multi-pass drilling in both rotary and down-the-hole drilling modes.
