Why Sonic?

Sonic technology is a unique method for drilling applications in the fields of environmental, geotechnical, construction, seismic and mineral exploration. The combination of powerful sonic heads with a variety of carrier vehicle options affords drilling and sampling in clay, silt, sand, and gravel, with high production, superior sample quality, and enhanced safety. Sandstone, limestone, siltstone, and coarse sediments can be drilled with Roto-Sonic heads, using water or air methods.

Manufactured in The Netherlands, SonicSampDrill products are distributed in North America by Sonic Sampling & Supply. As leaders in sonic technology, we bring the contracting, consulting, engineering and drilling community the highest quality sonic products and service in the industry.

Sonic Head Options

The Compact Sonic Head, CS

The Compact Sonic head puts out 20,000 to 28,000 pounds of force and the operator can select sonic vibration mode or rotation mode. The CS head weighs 650 pounds and is compact, which facilitates mounting on small carrier vehicles such as track crawlers, trucks or water craft. Typical boring depths for 2-inch tooling are 100 feet and for 4-inch tooling 50 feet. A great package where access is an issue and increased drilling production is paramount.

Compact Roto-Sonic, CRS

The Compact Roto-Sonic head is designed to drill deeper, faster and bigger boreholes. With output forces similar to the CS head, the CRS allows rotation and vibration simultaneously. This combination provides much higher cutting action down-hole, facilitating drilling in more competent semi-consolidated geologic formations. The head weighs 900 pounds. Typical borings are 3 or 6 inches in diameter and achieve depths of 200 feet and 100 feet, respectively. Where soil conditions are unknown or generally difficult, the CRS head is the choice.

Mid Sonic, MS

The Mid Sonic head delivers big power and consistently deep borings. With out put of more than 40,000 pounds of force and weighing 2,500 pounds, the MS head will drill to 300 feet with 6 inch tooling. The head requires upwards of 230 horse power to operate, with either a deck engine or power take-off system. Tooling diameter can be as large as 10 inches for shallower applications. Designed and built for dependability and reliability, the MS head will succeed in most drilling conditions.

The Compact Sonic System is designed to run a large variety of down-hole tooling to:

Create boreholes for injection, seismic and geo-construction applications
Core boreholes for mine tailings, quarries or general exploration
Install permanent monitoring points, multi-channel, Pre-pak and geothermal wells
Collect soil, groundwater, and soil vapor samples for environmental applications
