Overview
The Cat® MD6640 Rotary Drill is the only electric-drive drill in the Cat family but it shares the same characteristics of performance, reliability and durability with the rest of the drills in the Cat lineup. Ideal for harsh environmental conditions, the MD6640’s industry-leading durability is driven by its excavator-style undercarriage. Thanks to rebuildable components, superior structure and easy serviceability, the MD6640 delivers long life. And it’s built for operators, with a number of features that enhance productivity and reduce fatigue. Designed to drill holes from 244-406 mm (9.6-16 in) in diameter, the MD6640 is is optimized for single-pass or multi-pass drilling in both rotary and down-the-hole drilling modes.

CAT 390 EXCAVATOR-STYLE UNDERCARRIAGE
- Minimizes downtime and reduces owning and operating costs
- 32% more drawbar pull, increasing the machine’s steering performance
- Positive Pin Retention (PPR) system eliminates pin walking
PERFORMANCE-ENHANCING MAST
- Square tubular members, welded in a lattice configuration, reduce stress concentrations at welds
- Torsion box reinforcements at every 1.5 meters (5 feet) increase mast rigidity, especially for hard rock drilling and angle hole applications
FIT FOR HARSH ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Cold and hot weather packages equip the drill for operation at temperatures ranging from -40°C to 50°C (-40°F to 122°F)
- Operates at altitudes up to 3048 m (10,000 ft) with 85 m3/min (3,000 ft3 /min) compressor
- Operates at altitudes up to 5200 m (17,060 ft) with 108 m3/min (3,800 ft3 /min) compressor
SAFETY
- Hydraulic operated bit basket for bit changing without having to work under a suspended load
- Three access and egress points on deck areas and main access
- Seven engine shutdown buttons
- Hydraulic arm catchers that minimize the need to climb the mast
- Automatic, audible tram alarms
