Montabert CPA 35 160 Drilling Attachment

Overview of the Montabert CPA 35 160 Drilling Attachment

The Montabert CPA 35 160 is a heavy-duty carrier-mounted drilling attachment from the CPA (Carrier-mounted Percussion Attachment) range, designed to transform large hydraulic excavators into autonomous and high-performance drilling machines. As part of the CPA concept, drilling operations are performed directly using the excavator, eliminating the need for a dedicated drilling rig.

The CPA 35 160 is specifically engineered for hydraulic excavators in the 28–40 ton operating weight class and is intended for demanding quarrying, construction, and surface mining applications where deep drilling, high impact energy, and continuous operation are required.

Main Advantages

• Designed for hydraulic excavators with an operating weight of 28–40 tons.
• Carrier-mounted CPA solution offering greater flexibility than conventional drilling rigs.
• Equipped with the Montabert HC160 hydraulic drifter for high-energy drilling.
• Enables drilling, bolting, trenching, pre-splitting, and blasting operations using a single carrier.
• Reduces dependency on third-party drilling contractors and improves on-site autonomy.
• Optimized for continuous drilling cycles in demanding geological conditions.

Typical Applications

• Quarry drilling and bench drilling operations.
• Drilling for drill & blast in surface mining and construction.
• Trenching and pre-splitting works.
• Ground reinforcement and anchoring applications.
• Large-scale infrastructure and civil engineering projects.
