This Ingersoll Rand CM780D is a used vertical drill — sometimes referred to as a down-the-hole drill or DTH drill — a type of machine used to bore holes into rock and hard ground for mining, quarrying, construction, and geotechnical applications. Ingersoll Rand is a well-established manufacturer of industrial and construction equipment, with a long history of producing drilling machinery and air-powered tools for heavy industries worldwide.
The seller's notes confirm this machine is classified as a DTH-class drill, meaning it is configured for down-the-hole percussion drilling, where the hammer travels down the hole with the drill string and strikes the bit directly at the working face for efficient penetration of hard rock. Power is provided by a Caterpillar engine, a widely respected source of motive power in heavy drilling equipment.
This drill has had a single owner throughout its working life, which is a meaningful provenance detail for buyers assessing wear history and maintenance consistency. The frame has accumulated 12,651 hours, reflecting substantial overall use of the machine, while the percussion system records 2,474 hours — the lower percussion hours relative to frame hours suggesting the drilling function has seen proportionally less intensive use than the carrier itself.
The machine is located in Kentucky, USA, and is available in used condition.
