TRACTO Australia has delivered the first Australian GRUNDODRILL ACS300 to one of its longstanding partners, R&R McClure in Victoria.
Based in Castlemaine, Bendigo and Mildura, VIC, R&R McClure specialises in the installation of underground power, water and communication for utilities, government and private businesses.
Looking to expand their horizontal directional drilling (HDD) capabilities, especially in harder ground conditions, the company looked to its longstanding partner in TRACTO Australia.
TRACTO Australia delivered the GRUNDODRILL ACS300 last week, which was also on display for the first time at TRACTO Australia’s stand at No-Dig Down Under in 2023.
“Always at the forefront when applying the latest trenchless technologies, the ACS300 will ensure that they can continue to increase capacity in rock drilling and digital technology,” the company said on LinkedIn.
“Thanks again to Tim McClure and Kelly McClure for your continued support and we wish you all the best your new machine.”
The GRUNDODRILL ACS300 is capable of drilling in all geologies, including solid rock and combines TRACTO’s decades of experience in rock drilling with the latest machine technology and intuitive automation.
“From day one in the field the ACS300 is showing why it’s the ultimate in drilling,” R&R McClure owner Kelly McClure said on LinkedIn.
R&R McClure director Tim McClure agreed and thanked the TRACTO Australia team for its continued support.
“Our hard ground conditions are looking forward to meeting this drill,” he said, “and we are already impressed by the performance.”
