About this equipment

The UZX-HW-RC500 is a crawler air reverse circulation drilling rig. Compressed air brings the cuttings to the surface through the inside of the rods, not around them, so samples come up clean, undiluted and from the exact depth. It drills down to 400 m with 105–400 mm holes.

It has a 132 kW Cummins engine, 10000 N·m of torque in low gear and 5000 N·m in high gear, 25 t of pull-back and a drilling rate of 10–35 m per hour. It works with 16–55 m³/min of air at 1.6–6 MPa and 3 m rods of Ø102 or Ø114 mm. It weighs 12 t.

How it works

The rig works with dual-wall rods. Compressed air travels down the space between the two walls to the hammer at the bottom and comes back up through the inner tube, carrying the cuttings. The samples reach the surface without touching the hole walls, so they do not mix with the rock above, and are collected by depth interval for analysis.

Strengths

Samples rise through the inside of the rods, so they are clean and show exactly the depth they come from.

Two torque gears: 10000 N·m for large diameters, 5000 N·m for speed.

A drilling rate of 10–35 m per hour keeps the cost per metre low.

The 25 t pull-back works safely with long strings.

Where it is used

Mining exploration with cuttings samples, deposit evaluation drilling, large-diameter water wells and geotechnical drilling in rock.

How to choose the model

The UZX-HW-RC500 drills down to 400 m with 105–400 mm holes and suits mining exploration with cuttings samples and large-diameter wells. For core samples, choose the UZX-HW-400XL and UZX-HW-1000GL rigs.

Price and quote

The price depends on the equipment: dual-wall rods, hammers, bits and compressor. Send us the hole depth, the diameter and how many metres you drill per day, and a Uzinex engineer will prepare a quote. Delivery, commissioning and operator training are included in Romania.

What you get from Uzinex

• Delivery and commissioning included, at your site, with operator training.

• 60-month warranty, standard across the whole catalogue.

• Service with nationwide coverage in Romania, on-site visit within 24 hours.

• Spare parts in stock, so a breakdown does not stop the job.

• Technical documentation for EU-funded projects, PNRR and public tenders (SEAP/SICAP).

• Configuration on request: dual-wall rods, hammers and the right compressor for the depth.

Integrated solutions
for the factory of the future.

Six technology directions we integrate turnkey: from plug & play IIoT sensors, to cobots, predictive maintenance, optical inspection, MES connectivity and custom industrial software.

01
Industry

Plug & Play IIoT & Monitoring

See in real time how much each machine produces and how long it sits idle. We fit sensors on any equipment, new or old, and within a few hours you have the OEE dashboard on your phone. No complex wiring, no production downtime. The first concrete step toward digitalization, with ROI visible from the very first month.

  • OEE dashboard on your phone from day one
  • Fits any machine, with no production downtime
  • Investment recovered in 3-6 months

Industry

Collaborative robotics

Solve your labor shortage without tripling your costs. The cobot works safely alongside your people (palletizing, feeding the CNC, welding) while you recover the investment in 12-18 months. Prices 30-40% below European distributors, with installation and programming included from us.

  • ROI in 12-18 months, with no extra staff
  • Installation + programming included in the package
  • 30-40% below European distributor prices

Industry

Predictive maintenance

Stop waiting for things to break. Our algorithms analyze sensor data and tell you exactly which part will fail and when, and we bring it to your production line before the breakdown. Zero unplanned downtime, zero contractual penalties, complete operational peace of mind.

  • Zero unplanned production downtime
  • The spare part arrives before the breakdown
  • Essential for public contracts and the defense sector

Optical inspection

Eliminate defects before they reach the customer. Our cameras inspect every part at speeds no operator can match, detecting sub-millimeter defects. They mount onto your existing line, with no modifications. Ideal if you produce for export and have strict quality clauses.

  • Detection of defects under 1mm, in real time
  • Mounts onto your existing line, with no modifications
  • 90%+ fewer rejects at export customers
