XR240E Rotary Piling Rig from XCMG, (XR240E)

The XCMG XR240E rotary piling rig drills large-diameter bored piles from 600mm to 2,200mm and down to 70m deep, with 240kNm of rotary drive torque and a 252kW Cummins L9 engine certified to US Tier 4 Final and EU Stage V. Supplied in Australia by United Heavy Industries (UHI), it comes with a 3-year major parts and labour warranty, free operator training and finance available.

Key Features of the XCMG XR240E Rotary Piling Rig

• Multi-function machine – switch quickly between crowd cylinder, crowd winch, CFA (continuous flight auger) and dual rotary drive set-ups to suit the job.
• More productive – XCMG states rotary drive and main winch performance are up 20% for higher work efficiency.
• High casing torque – with the optional torque multiplier, casing driving torque reaches 360kNm for stronger casing installation.
• Stable double-jib parallelogram luffing – a 16% larger support range for more stable operation.
• Single-layer rope winches – XCMG states wire rope life is 2–4 times longer than multi-layer designs, lowering running costs.
• Intelligent control system – automatic mast perpendicularity adjustment and display, automatic rotation and spin-off, real-time drilling depth detection and pile-type display.
• Efficient hydraulics – negative flow control for fast response, plus a temperature-controlled independent oil cooler that adjusts fan speed to save energy.

Rotary Piling Rig Applications

The XR240E rotary piling rig is built for hole-forming on cast-in-place concrete piles in roads, railways, bridges, large venues, and industrial and civil buildings. It uses mechanical interlocking or friction Kelly bars with rotary buckets, including sand drilling buckets, tubular drills and short spiral drills.

The rig can also be set up for CFA piling, dual rotary drive or a casing oscillator, so one machine can cover a wide range of foundation jobs.

Built-In Safety and Monitoring

This rotary piling rig comes standard with a long list of safety and monitoring systems, including self-righting, rotation angle display, rotation sound-light alarm, tail security monitoring, luffing and mast limit protection, mast perpendicularity detection, main winch height limit and infrared monitoring, real-time drilling depth detection, filter clogging alarm, intelligent fault detection, oil pressure detection and emergency stop protection. A PLC intelligent control module and central lubrication are also standard.

Operator Comfort

The single-operator cab is FOPS certified to ISO 3449:2005, with standard air conditioning and operator noise kept below 80dB. Bus panel design helps prevent misoperation, while on-screen display of rotary drive torque and speed keeps the operator informed throughout the drilling cycle.
