YTR280C Rotary Blasthole Drilling Rig

Product Overview

Model: YTR280C  |  Category: Foundation Construction Equipment

The YTR280C Rotary Blasthole Drilling Rig is purpose-built for open-pit mining and quarry blasthole drilling operations. Mounted on a heavy-duty truck chassis (Caterpillar or Doosan option), this hydraulic drilling rig delivers rapid hole penetration with precise depth control, making it ideal for large-scale mining projects requiring consistent borehole quality across granite, limestone, and overburden layers.

Mobility

1. 280 kN·m Heavy Torque

The YTR280C produces 280 kN·m rotary torque from a 261 kW engine, rated for 2000 mm pile diameter and 85 m depth—heavy-duty deep foundation drilling.

2. 85 m Deep Piles

At 85 m depth the YTR280C reaches the long piles of super-tall buildings, deep river-crossing bridges and major port and cofferdam structures.

3. 230 kN Crowd and Traction

230 kN crowd and traction force feed the bit firmly through dense and weathered rock, and the 5330 mm track keeps the heavy mast planted.

4. 6–23 RPM Torque-Biased Speed

A lower 6–23 r/min rotation keeps torque high for large, deep bores, prioritising penetration in hard strata over raw speed.

About the YTR280C Rotary Blasthole Drilling Rig

The YTR280C is the heavy-deep foundation rig: 261 kW, 280 kN·m torque, 2000 mm piles to 85 m. It is built for super-tall buildings, deep river-crossing bridges and major port cofferdams where piles must go long and socket into competent strata.

This is the machine for projects that push beyond standard foundation depth—large-diameter piles that carry high structural loads deep into stable ground, through overburden and into weathered rock.

For major infrastructure contractors worldwide, the YTR280C is the next step up from the 200C: more engine, more torque and deeper reach, configured by Yutong engineers to the pile design and ground profile of the project.

For super-tall and deep-bridge foundations, the YTR280C is supplied with a configured mast, rock-socketing tooling and a commissioning programme. Yutong engineers stay available through the pile programme until the crew is independent.

For deep bridge and tower foundations, Yutong engineers set the mast and rod count to the pile depth, then commission the YTR280C and train the crew until it runs independently on the project.

The YTR280C is chosen on projects where depth and diameter both push past the standard class; its 261 kW engine and 280 kN·m torque are matched to continuous large-bore production, not intermittent use.

For deep 2000 mm pile programmes, Yutong supplies a configuration review, operator training and a recommended spares kit so the crew starts productively.

What are the YTR280C main parameters?

261 kW engine, 280 kN·m torque, up to 2000 mm pile diameter and 85 m depth.

When do I need a YTR280C?

When pile diameter approaches 2000 mm and depth exceeds 68 m—super-tall buildings, deep bridges and large cofferdams.

How does it compare with the YTR200C?

The 280C adds engine (261 vs 187 kW), torque (280 vs 200 kN·m) and depth (85 vs 68 m) for the heaviest deep-foundation work.

Can it drill into rock?

Its torque-biased rotation and 230 kN crowd suit rock-socketing with appropriate core tooling; tell us the rock strength for tool selection.

What is the mast stability like?

A 5330 mm track and 230 kN traction keep the heavy mast stable for the largest bores on variable ground.

Do engineers support configuration?

Yes—Yutong engineers configure mast, rod count and tooling to the pile design, and provide commissioning and training on site.
