EVH Drill Engineering Pty Ltd was founded in 1999 to build small drills for
hard logistical places or where the expense of a larger machine is not warranted.
These multi purpose drill rigs are for environmental,
geotechnical, early mineral exploration and shallow water wells.
The company has 3 main multi purpose machines: the 1750 Scout, the 2100 Explorer and the
3300 drill. All 3 machines have a range of options enabling the end user to have a drill purpose built from standard components. This enables the operator to start with the base model in the range, adding the options as
necessary when the work requirements change, keeping the initial investment to a minimum.
To add to their product range the company purchased the intellectual property of GEMCO DRILLS. This complimented the EVH machines adding to their product scope of drills, particularly the single pass blast hole rigs.
For Geo-technical and environmental work, EVH manufacture a range of push tube and small hand held soil sampling machines and a range of solid and hollow augers.
Because of the lack of suitable small carriers, EVH have designed and built the Rhino HPU
to act as a mobile power pack and to transport the smaller drills. These are available in skid steer
or track versions. The configuration of the Rhino HPU, with its industry standard fittings, allows a range of attachments for general, or civil applications.
More recently, to cope with the influx of general engineering work, EVH have opened their
separate Metals Division to cater for this increased General Engineering demand.
