ALL TERRAIN DIRECTIONAL DRILLS


Until All Terrain technology was developed by Ditch Witch engineers, encountering rocky soil or solid rock meant one thing: find another place to drill. But with the All Terrain directional drilling system’s two-pipe drilling method and hydraulic, heavy-duty anchor system, rock is just another type of soil. In fact, any type of soil is all right with Ditch Witch All Terrain drills, which feature high drilling torque and a wide range of speeds for maximum productivity in the widest range of ground formations.
JT3020AT The 148-hp (110 kW) JT3020 All Terrain directional drill can steer, drill and backream in solid rock up to 650 feet.
JT4020AT The Ditch Witch JT4020 All Terrain directional drill can steer, drill and backream in just about any type of soil—even solid rock—up to 1000 feet.
JT100AT The Ditch Witch JT100 All Terrain directional drill is a 268-hp (200 kW) rock-drilling powerhouse with 100,000 lb (445 kN) of pullback.

DRILLING TECHNOLOGY EFFECTIVENESS

All Terrain horizontal directional drills have high drilling torque and a wide range of speeds, making them the most effective drills for the widest range of ground formations.

KEY FEATURES

  • Only technology that enables simultaneous drilling and steering through rock and rocky soil.
  • Exclusive, patented two-pipe drilling system allows continuous rotation of the drill bit.
  • Low drilling fluid volume means less waste, less cleanup, and less environmental impact.
  • Provides more power to the bit than any competing rock-drilling system.
  • Patented, shaft-within-a-pipe design features a strong, hex-shaped rod that turns inside an outer pipe.
  • The inner hex shaft works as a mechanical motor that drives the bit during the bore; the outer pipe thrusts the bit forward, steers the drill shaft and works to transmit full machine torque during backreaming.
