TOTALLY HANDS-FREE ROD HANDLING

The LF350e and FREEDOM Loader combination provides hands-free rod handling. No intervention from the driller’s assistant is required to align and cycle the rods when operating the loader. 

Optimal safety without compromising productivity

The FREEDOM Loader can cycle 6 meter rods in same amount of time as a manual cycle, which means enhanced safety is achieved without compromising productivity.

Electronic Controls

The LF350e drill rig is completely electronically controlled utilizing CAN bus and PLC devices. The patent-pending control panel features a 12” touch screen display for drilling information and mode selection.

Depth capacity

With up to 3,360 meters of NQ™ W-Wall™ capacity, the LF350e can meet the demands of the deepest diamond coring projects. Need a larger size core in a deep hole? The LF350e can deliver 3050 m of HQ core or 1800 m of PQ core using HRQ™ W-Wall™ and PHD W-Wall™ rods.
