Specially selected crawler rigs built to endure intense geological conditions. Engineered for deep core sampling and high-accuracy mineral exploration.
Deploying drilling machinery in Costa Rica presents unique engineering trials. Characterized by active tectonic plates (the Cocos-Caribbean plate subduction zone), Costa Rica exhibits high seismic activity and complex geological patterns. Ranging from highly weathered, water-saturated clays in the coastal regions to dense, abrasive basaltic layers in the central volcanic chains (e.g., Bagaces and Aguacate Groups), operators require core drilling rigs that possess high rotational torque, precise control, and resilient crawler undercarriages.
For infrastructure extensions, mining exploration in Guanacaste, and geothermal energy drilling around the Rincón de la Vieja zone, retrieving intact geotechnical core samples is essential. SINOVO's crawler hydraulic core drilling rigs, such as the SHY-5C and SD1000, are specifically designed to yield maximum core recovery in fractured volcanic rock. Their high-capacity hydraulic feed systems ensure uniform pressure, preventing core blockage or bit shearing in shifting geological strata.

SINOVO Group is a professional manufacturer and global supplier of construction machinery, exploration equipment, and comprehensive engineering solutions. Over the last 20+ years, our technical core team has refined drilling capabilities, delivering reliable, high-performance machinery. In 2008, we expanded our footprint by establishing TEG FAR EAST in Singapore to serve the broader Southeast Asian market. In 2010, we expanded our manufacturing base in the Hebei Xianghe industrial area, representing a 120 million yuan investment. Positioned within 100 km of Tianjin Port, this 7,800 sqm facility minimizes overland transit costs, passing the logistics savings directly onto our worldwide customers.
Our comprehensive production facility manages an annual output of 1,000 core drilling rigs, 250 water well drilling units, and 120 rotary drilling rigs. Driven by advanced R&D in electronic-hydraulic drive systems, SINOVO equipment remains a premier choice for major piling and geologic contractors globally. All equipment complies with ISO9001:2015, CE, and GOST standards, proving our dedication to quality assurance and international safety compliance.
Exporting heavy machinery to Central America requires precise shipping workflows and proper documentation. SINOVO Group handles all transit operations, delivering cargo to major Costa Rican entry points like Puerto Caldera (Pacific Coast) and Puerto Limón (Caribbean Coast). Thanks to our Customs Class A Certification, SINOVO guarantees swift outbound clearance, saving weeks of port delays.
We provide full-package shipping options, securing all documentation for import compliance (Diligencia de Aduanas, Bill of Lading, Commercial Invoice, Packing List, and CE conformity reports). To ensure our equipment handles the humid ocean voyage, all components undergo anti-corrosive marine preservation prep, including heat-shrink protective wrap and heavy-duty ocean crating.
Unmatched field engineering backup, component availability, and engine service integrations.
To guarantee client security, SINOVO offers custom-tailored pre-sale technical alignment, on-site commissioning, and comprehensive machine trials before shipment.
Our field technicians travel to project sites globally, offering 1 to 2 weeks of operator safety and efficiency training. We guide your crew through first-pile test runs.
We provide a full 12-month manufacturer's warranty on structural and dynamic components. Rigs utilizing CAT undercarriages enjoy service support at local CAT service centers.
