CAT® ROTARY BLASTHOLE DRILLS
The Cat family of rotary drills covers every need and every application, no matter how big or small, no matter how harsh or remote. We offer drills in every size class — small, medium, large and ultra.
But no matter which machine best fits your needs, you can count on the same level of quality, reliability and support that comes standard with every Cat drill. All of our drills use common parts, components and technologies. They share one operating system and one control configuration. They are supported and serviced the same way, which makes them easier to maintain. They even share a number of common parts and features with your other Cat machines.
When you buy a Cat drill, you know exactly what you’re getting: a reliable, accurate, powerful machine that will help your operation run smoothly and productively.
WHY CHOOSE A CAT DRILL?
Efficient, accurate drilling starts you off on the right foot, increasing efficiency and reducing costs across the rest of your operation. With industry-leading features and technologies, Cat drills are designed to be safe, accurate and easy to operate, setting the tone for a productive mine. Please note that not all features are available on every models, and contact your Cat dealer to request more information on your specific needs.

IN-CAB MONITORING AND DISPLAY SYSTEM
Cat drills feature advanced 10-inch touchscreen monitors that help operators easily and accurately manage all drill functions — including standard automated functions. The touchscreen and all controls are mounted to the rotating seat for more comfort and usability, and all displays are intuitively designed for a simpler operator experience.
In addition to enabling better control of the machine, these screens give operators real-time feedback on a wide variety of machine health and performance data, including:
- Hole depth and angle
- Hydraulic, compressor and engine filters
- Rotary head RPM
- Engine shutdown timer
AUTOMATE THE DRILLING CYCLE
Automate the functions of your drilling cycle to improve both precision and speed. All functions are executed with a single button press to help you:
- Reduce drill cycle time and improve overall production costs
- Achieve better blast quality and more productive loading, hauling and processing through improved hole consistency
- Extend the life of your drill by reducing machine stress and downtime
- Enhance operator productivity regardless of skill level
- Optimize consumable wear
GET MORE FROM YOUR MACHINE
A matched powertrain gives Cat drills unmatched power and efficiency. Electronic Compressor Controls (ECC) improve performance while reducing fuel burn. The compressors air output volume and working pressure are adjusted to match the machine’s needs, gathering input from the cutting tool to suit the ground conditions and tooling being used. The result is less wasted effort, lower engine load factor and reduced fuel consumption.
The result is optimal performance of cutting tools, no matter what type of bit or hammer is being used. That means more feet drilled for every tool, reducing your consumable costs and helping you get more out of your machine.
This also makes for longer service life for all drill accessories, including subs, pipes and deck bushings. This all adds up to significant time and costs savings for your maintenance staff, as well as improved productivity for your drill.
FOCUSED ON SAFETY
A number of features increase safety for everyone working on and around your Cat drills, including:
- Hydraulic operated bit basket for bit changing without having to work under a suspended load
- Three access and egress points on deck areas and main access
- Seven engine shutdown buttons
- Hydraulic arm catchers minimizing the need to climb the mast
- Automatic, audible tram alarms
