October 11th, 2021

Has max 220 litres of water.
One person could easily operate a T4 alone.
Designed as the perfect sampling machine.
Core up to 350mm.

The Xcalibre T5 is 1350 Kgs so needs an additional licence in the UK.
Has max 450 litres of water, so a heavier duty machine.
We would recommend two persons to operate the machine safely.
Cores up to 800mm.
