THE MD6200 ROTARY DRILL RIG
The Cat® MD6200 is our smallest, most transportable rotary drill yet. But don’t let its size fool you; the MD6200 is a powerful, rugged machine that can stand up to the conditions of any site and deliver reliable performance with high availability.
Designed to provide an optimal mix of onboard air, feed force, rotary torque and machine mobility, the MD6200 is a powerful production blast hole drill. But it is versatile enough to handle a wide variety of other applications. Its negative-angle drilling capability allows it to handle specialty projects like ramp and access development, sink shots, and even limited pre-split drilling.

IN-CAB MONITORING AND DISPLAY SYSTEM
The MD6200 features advanced 10-inch touchscreen monitors that help operators easily and accurately manage all drill functions — including standard automated functions. The touchscreen and all controls are mounted to the rotating seat for more comfort and usability, and all displays are intuitively designed for a simpler operator experience.
In addition to enabling better control of the machine, these screens give operators real-time feedback on a wide variety of machine health and performance data, including:
- Hole depth and angle
- Hydraulic, compressor and engine filters
- Rotary head RPM
- Engine shutdown timer
AUTOMATE THE DRILLING CYCLE
Automate the functions of your drilling cycle to improve both precision and speed. All functions are executed with a single button press to help you:
- Reduce drill cycle time and improve overall production costs
- Achieve better blast quality and more productive loading, hauling and processing through improved hole consistency
- Extend the life of your drill by reducing machine stress and downtime
- Enhance operator productivity regardless of skill level
- Optimize consumable wear
GET MORE FROM YOUR MACHINE
A matched powertrain gives the MD6200 unmatched power and efficiency. Electronic Compressor Controls (ECC) improve performance while reducing fuel burn. The compressors air output volume and working pressure are adjusted to match the machine’s needs, gathering input from the cutting tool to suit the ground conditions and tooling being used. The result is less wasted effort, lower engine load factor and reduced fuel consumption.
The result is optimal performance of cutting tools, no matter what type of bit or hammer is being used. That means more feet drilled for every tool, reducing your consumable costs and helping you get more out of your machine.
This also makes for longer service life for all drill accessories, including subs, pipes and deck bushings. This all adds up to significant time and costs savings for your maintenance staff, as well as improved productivity for your drill.
FOCUSED ON SAFETY
The MD6200 includes a number of features designed to increase safety for everyone working on and around the machine, including:
- 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 minimizing the need to climb the mast
- Automatic, audible tram alarms
