Reliable Core Drilling in a Compact Format

With a maximum drilling diameter of 6 inches, the DMS 180 strikes the ideal balance between portability and performance.

Flexible Angling and Ergonomic Design

The core stand on the DMS 180 features a column that angles from 0 to 60 degrees, giving operators the flexibility to drill at angles without repositioning the entire rig. This design is especially beneficial for working in corners, vertical surfaces, or confined areas where larger rigs can’t reach. At just 51 lbs, the system is easy to transport, maneuver, and store—without sacrificing performance.

Its compact size and ergonomic layout reduce strain on the user and make it a go-to tool in both field and rental settings.
