In the world of industrial drilling, power and precision are essential. That’s why the 36/42-600E — a groundbreaking product from industrial manufacturer American Augers — merges these qualities and sets a new standard for drilling operations.

Powerful motor and uptime

Central to the 36/42-600E is its WEG 460V electric motor. This power-packed, emissions-free motor is significantly quieter than a more conventional non-electric engine, allows for unrivaled speed during operations, and is capable of drilling through solid rock even in noise-sensitive areas. The WEG 460V’s lightweight design also adds to the machine’s overall mobility, making it a suitable solution for steep angles and other challenging drilling conditions.

The 36/42-600E’s torque limiter and adjustable speed capabilities are also revolutionary features. This limiter helps prevent damage to critical components and ensures a longer lifespan for the machine, less downtime for maintenance or repairs, and allows operators to adapt the machine’s performance to the demands of the job at hand — whether they’re turning at 2 rpm or 40 rpm. This adaptability is vital, as it allows the 36/42-600E to adjust its torque to conquer any soil and any condition, further solidifying its place as a versatile and reliable solution for any drilling operation, according to American Augers.

Safety and comfort

The 36/42-600E offers a host of features designed to push the boundaries of what’s possible in a drilling operation. One standout addition is the machine’s wireless remote control, which dramatically enhances its operational flexibility by giving operators the freedom to move away from both the rig and the bore pit and to control the machine from a distance. This not only makes things more comfortable, but also markedly increases operator safety by reducing their potential exposure to job site hazards.

Another innovation is the machine’s gravity-activated spill door, which automatically deflects debris from the spoil chamber while the machine is running and helps maintain the integrity of the whole drilling operation.

Control and ease of operation

The 36/42-600E shines with its innovative Quik-Split frame design. This design allows the machine to be divided into sections for simplified lifts in and out of the bore pit, reducing downtime and increasing productivity.

The Quik-Tran return system provides the machine with up to 10,000 pounds of push and pull at high speeds and ensures efficient operation without any dogging or winching during retraction. The return system also engages directly to the machine tack for easier operation across challenging work conditions.

American Augers, the manufacturer of the 36/42-600E, has been at the forefront of crafting high-quality auger boring machines since the company was founded in 1970. The company is backed by a global dealer network and a team of seasoned professionals with decades of experience in the industry.
