Drillers seeking to rely on static weight for their CPT machine choose the 2060CPT. Completing cone penetration testing (CPT testing) from the comfort of the climate-controlled cabin on the CPT machine, clients can observe the large visual display projecting real-time data as testing is performed. The 142 HP engine/hydraulic systems provide the CPT machine with excellent climbing and turning ability in rugged/unlevel terrain or steep grades. Low ground pressure of 7-psi minimizes terrain disturbance while the swinging control panel allows for operation from either side of the low-profile CPT press. Additional advantages of the CPT machine include:
Owners seeking to serve geotechnical and environmental industries find the 2060CPT well suited for utilizing Direct Image® tooling to complete their environmental investigations from the comfort of the CPT machine.
Owners seeking to expand their CPT testing service area choose the 2060CPT realizing customers appreciate the comfort of the climate-controlled cabin on the CPT machine. However, its versatility to serve various industries with Direct Image® tooling and available options to perform pre-drilling and other conventional soil sampling results in expanded CPT machine utilization.

Our team of engineers thrives on collaborating with drillers while they continually innovate new designs.
The rig features 20 tons of downforce and 30 tons of pull. With a push through center of gravity, the weight is evenly distributed over the entire platform. The weight of the entire cabin crawler is centered at the press clamp so that the entire mass of the crawler is applied to the tool string being advanced.
The hydraulic push clamp and press can push the cone with up to 20 tons of downforce. The amount of force can be adjusted on the control panel. A hydraulic bottom clamp is used to keep rods from slipping back down hole when the push clamp is released. When retracting the tool string, the 2060CPT has 30 tons of pull.
The robust track system of the 142-horsepower 2060CPT allows for CPT testing in most terrains. Its proven drive-train and chassis provide excellent climbing and turning ability. With a ground pressure of 7 psi, it causes minimal disturbance to the terrain with minimal ground pressure at the tracks. The rig is tracked to the testing location with either a wireless or tethered remote.
The climate-controlled cabin has a large side door that allows for easy loading and unloading of rods and equipment.
Optional shear wave generators are used to generate a shear wave impact for sensing measurement by the Seismic Cone Penetrometer. They provide a sharp, swift hammer strike, producing a clean energy wave through the soil for the cone to read.
An optional 6712DT mast can be mounted on to the porch side of the 2060CPT. This allows for coring, conventional soil sampling, shallow drilling for soil verification, and pre-drilling. In many cases, it may be required to create a hole opening for CPT by clearing concrete or debris. The 6712DT mast opens up these options on one rig. It is located in-line with the CPT press inside the cabin. The crawler can easily be tracked over the drilled hole when the time comes to perform the CPT test.
The compact, user friendly control panel allows for all functions and hydraulic controls to be controlled from one location. It features a swing arm, allowing for control from either side of the press.
A camera is mounted to the undercarriage for precise location of the machine over the hole. Internal monitors allow for viewing the camera as well as logging information.
During setup, four hydraulic outriggers are used for leveling the machine.
Accessing the engine for service is easy with the large engine bay doors.

The NOVA CPT test cone introduces higher resolution, more robust construction and improved accuracy. NOVA CPT delivers improved durability and sensitivity in an instrumented cone. The Geotech AB NOVA CPT system has always been unique in the geotechnical industry and is known for its cordless data transmission system: a constant digital stream of data is sent to the surface through the sounding rods. No cable through the rods is needed in the cordless setup. Cable CPT has always been an option, but now with Cable NOVA we can offer an entry-level cost-effective approach. For more than 20 years, Geoprobe Systems® has teamed up with Geotech AB of Sweden to be the exclusive U.S. distributor for Geotech AB Cone Penetration Testing tools for geotechnical and environmental studies. We also provide the service and support, offering repair and calibration services. The cordless or corded NOVA CPT test cones can be used from a variety of push platforms to provide continuous data, repeatable penetration results, and cost savings over traditional boring and sampling methods. NOVA Cones adhere to the national standards for construction (ASTM D-5778 Standard Test Method for Performing Electronic Friction Cone and Piezocone Penetration Testing of Soils, as well as ISO 22476-1-11:2004).
