This Ingersoll Rand ECM585 is a used vertical drill — sometimes referred to as a drifter drill or rock drill — a type of machine designed for percussive down-hole and horizontal drilling in mining, construction, and quarry applications. Ingersoll Rand is a well-established manufacturer with a long history of producing compressed-air and hydraulic drilling equipment for heavy industry and surface mining.
The drill is equipped with a Montabert HC109 drifter and is rated for the 2.5- to 3.5-inch hole class, covering a range of light-to-medium production drilling work. The overall machine was built in 2005 and currently shows 5,416.2 engine hours on the clock.
What sets this unit apart is the condition of its percussion system. The drifter has accumulated only 933 total percussion hours since new — a remarkably low figure relative to the machine's age, indicating it has spent a significant portion of its working life in non-percussive use. The HC109 drifter was last rebuilt in June 2015 at 852 percussion hours, meaning it has logged fewer than 100 additional percussion hours since that rebuild. A new feed motor has also been recently installed. The seller describes the overall condition as excellent.
The machine is currently located in Kentucky, USA.
