Drillatron Series XXS Prototype

The Drillatron Series XXS Prototype is a gargantuan drilling device, that can be used for big drilling jobs. The drilling device’s features contain these: two moving devices, two joining pillars, a central control hub, a shaft that propels the drill into the ground and of course, the drill. This machine would be very useful in situations where a lesser drill would take too much time.

The central control hub houses the million volt lithium-ion battery, which powers all the monitoring systems, the 1500 bhp engine and the dashboard. There is no windows because if there was, it would be dangerous because of the debris the drill would bring up. Instead, you see through the monitoring cameras.

The drill is the main piece of this wonderful creation. It has a span of 5 metres, and has serrated edges throughout the drill. There is a reinforced steel shaft that propels the drill down into the ground and makes it spin around at incredible speeds.

The whole entire Drillatron series moves on a series of caterpillar tracks, that swivel on a series of large ball bearings built for all terrain, including inclines and declines.

The Drillatron Series XXS Prototype is the first Drillatron in the Drillatron drill series. Only 100 of these gargantuan machines will be built because of what the device can do. The XXS Prototype will begin production on September 6 2022, so it will share its birthday with its creator, the highly decorated mechanical engineer Luke Baatjies. The XXS will begin production the following winter. Drillatron will live on!
