MEDATech’s Borterra drilling division has created RodBot – a hydraulic, robotic pipe handler specifically for loading and unloading drill rods and casing. It is suitable for mining, construction and the oil and gas industry, as it can be adapted to work on virtually any piece of drilling equipment. Mounted to a drill rig, pipe truck or on a skid, RodBot is an easy tool for operators to master thanks to its computer-assisted controls with embedded collision-avoidance capabilities.
