Compact directional drilling system

Custom-build HDD machine                                                                         

Bofram designed and created a compact directional drilling system for the company Moll Gestuurd Boren. This mud handling system will be used in the HDD industry. Horizontal Directional Drilling is used to construct and repair underground tubes and pipes without deconstructing the road.

The engineers of Bofram created the complete mix and high-pressure unit. This unit is specifically designed for the HDD mud mixing truck of Mol Gestuurd Boren. This mud system is provided with two tanks, one for mixing and one for clean water. It also contains a hydraulic-driven hose reel with 40 meters of hose. Furthermore, a high mixing capacity, low fuel consumption, and wireless remote control are other important characteristics of our HDD equipment. The remote control has an engine start/stop, a digital pressure indicator, and a liters/minute indicator

Moll Gestuurd Boren

The company Moll Gestuurd Boren is located in Winkel. They are a professional in designing and executing trenchless drillings for the benefit of the underground infrastructure. They reached out to Bofram for quiet and compact directional drilling system to execute their HDD activities in residential areas.

Moll Gestuurd Boren has executed its first horizontal drilling with the Bofram mix and pump unit and Vermeer drilling rig. Bofram wishes the drill team of Mol Gestuurd Boren a lot of safe horizontal drills!

Your case is our challenge!

With our many years of practical experience in compact directional drilling systems, we can empathize with the needs and wishes of you as our customer.

User-friendliness

User-friendliness is an important focus point at Bofram, which we continuously take into consideration. Our mud handling equipment is very user-friendly due to its compactness, even when placed in limited spaces, like a mud mixing truck. Additionally, our engine room is easy to access for maintenance. The added wireless remote control with a pressure indicator, liters per minute, speed, and start/stop increases user-friendliness.

Safety and Environment

The engineers at Bofram always consider safety and the environment when designing a custom solution for our client. During the design process of trenchless drilling equipment, our engineers take the employees and environment into account. Therefore, this HDD mud system has an engine room that has been equipped with sound-reducing materials. Next, low energy consumption has been realized by, among others, providing the machine with an automatic engine speed control system. This is dependent on the workload. Lastly, level meters are attached to all tanks to prevents that the system runs dry.
