The Apafor® 350 drill is a full solutions package to realize all sounding and drilling works : rotary, coring, augering, roto-percussion and down-the-hole hammering, as well as dynamic penetrometric testing and compaction control.

With his catch all size and his hydraulic width variable track, this rig can pass through standard doors and other hard-to-reach areas while delivering outstanding performance. The variable displacement rotation head, which can be adjusted from the control panel, provides a wide range of speed and torque.

Its many options make the Apafor® 350 a complete probe, while keeping a total weight of 2.7 tonnes (all options included) allowing it to be transported on a 3.50 tonne road trailer.

The option Heavy dynamic penetroeter for DPSH, SPT and control compaction (penetrodensitograph) is settled very easily to the rotary head trolley which keeps his hydraulic head sliding : a unique conception in the market ! The whole stays inside the safety cage and the penetrometer is used with the cage opened : a strong advantage for all penetration tests and hammering works. 

For the European market, the Apafor® 350 is available in a UFCMF version equipped with a safety cage with a physical or immaterial door and a YANMAR 36 HP DIESEL engine in compliance with the new environmental standards in force. It is the ideal drilling rig for the success of all geotechnical sites in complete safety!
