BIT LIFTA™

The Worlds First Autonomous and Tele remote Supported Hands-Free Drill Bit Handling Tool.

The Chester Brown Industries BIT-LIFTA takes the heavy lifting on DTH Hammer bits while having the ability to change Rotary bits autonomously . The CBI BIT-LIFTA is designed to cater for either bit just by changing the purpose built jaws. The BIT-LIFTA can be controlled from the main panel, by remote control or from a 3rd party input. Power failure will not interfere with its bit grip and has a slow rotation to align the bits in the break-out basket. Units are available in 12v and 24v systems.

Operational Features

Capable of handling rotary and DTH drill bits.
Rotates clockwise and anit-clockwise to ensure alignment to break out basket.
Open and closing of the jaws is hands free.
