Nice machine but it has way to many moving parts. Even the best maintained clean rig will have dirt and mud ruin all those moving parts. Well drilling is not a clean factory job. Rods are weigh quite a bit and after a few hunderd hours of running that rod hander will get loose and will require man hands to line things up. Much respect to you but I don't think the tooling will have a long life span
That is a sweet system. And the best part is that it will not give you an attitude like a p.o.s. helper would!!! LOL. Boy wish my work would have something like that. Awesome job fellas!!
All of DeepRock's commercial rigs can be used for geothermal work, even our smallest model, the DR20. Most commercial customers use the DR100, DR120,and DR150 for this work. The Otto loading arm has been especially popular with these drillers because one man can operate the rig while a helper goes about the work of installing the loop pipes.
Our rigs are rated for different depths and conditions. The one in this video, the DR150, can drill to 600 feet routinely. If it is equipped with a down-the-hole hammer system, it can drill through the hardest rock. Speeds in rock are typically one-half to two feet per minute. Our smallest rigs, such as the DR20, can drill to 200 feet. Even the small rigs can use down-the-hole hammers, but they are more practical on the larger machines.
This is a very informative video about your product. I am interested in starting up a small business and am looking at all the options out there. So far your product looks like it will be the best fit for my current needs.
Maintenance on a DeepRock drill rig is like that of any heavy duty outdoor construction equipment. There are several filters that need replacing on a regular basis and grease points that need a daily shot of grease. The drillhead has a rotary seal system that typically needs replacing every few months (six bolts, ten minute job). The mud pumps will require normal replacement of wear parts . With routine cleaning and adjustment, the rest of the machine should go years between parts replacement.
Thanks for your nice comment. We think its a pretty fantastic machine ourselves. While the controls are straightforward and easy to operate, well drilling requires some knowledge of the trade. Just like operating a nail gun is easy, framing a house with one requires knowledge of carpentry. As regards Canadian sales, some of our best customers are Canadians. We often sell rigs there for installing ground source (AKA geothermal) heat pumps.
