Astec Underground provides equipment to meet the underground construction needs of customers involved in construction, the pipeline industry, and the installation of infrastructure. It offers Trencor high performance rock trenchers and road miners and Astec utility trenchers, horizontal directional drills, and geothermal drills. These products are manufactured at the company’s 360,000-square-foot facility in Loudon, Tenn. For more than 60 years, Trencor has been a leading choice for heavy-duty rock trenching and milling needs. This tough, ruggedly built equipment is a favorite of the oil and gas markets, and for contractors working in demanding digging conditions worldwide. As the world's energy needs continue to grow, we expect these markets will continue to generate demand for our specialized equipment. The Astec line of utility trenchers and compact horizontal directional drills benefit from the same technology and attention to design that makes Trencor machines so popular. From walk-behind trenchers like the RT130 and RT160 to powerful, full-size ride-on trenchers like the RT1160, Astec trenchers set the standard for performance and productivity. The Astec compact horizontal directional drills (HDD) complement the trencher lineup to meet customers' underground construction needs. These units utilize technology and engineering derived from the maxi drills produced by Astec Underground’s sister company, American Augers. These compact units are sized for working in tight conditions, but boast plenty of power and torque to keep production high. The most recent addition to the Astec lineup is the EarthPro Geothermal drill. The Astec EarthPro Geothermal 4550X is a track-mounted unit designed to meet the specialized demands of geothermal system installations. Its superior field mobility, power, and state-of-the-art technology make it ideally suited to high-production drilling applications. Astec Underground engineers conducted extensive field studies with goethermal system installers and incorporated suggestions by veteran drillers into the design of the EarthPro Geothermal 4550X. It uses technology that has made Astec Underground an innovative leader in the horizontal directional drilling industry. Astec trenchers and HDDs are sold and supported through a worldwide network of 56 dealers that operate more than 100 locations. Astec EarthPro geothermal drills and Trencor machines are sold direct from the factory and through a network of agents and dealers worldwide. They’re supported through a dedicated parts and service center available 24-hours a day. Learn about the full line of Astec Underground products at www.astecunderground.com.
