Introducing the CED SFM Series


The CED SFM Series represents a new generation of compact drilling platforms designed specifically for the challenges of modern exploration and drilling projects.


Built around a highly capable 6x6 vehicle platform, the SFM Series combines exceptional off-road performance, transport efficiency, and drilling capability into a single integrated solution.


Designed for projects operating in remote and difficult-to-access locations, the CED SFM Series allows exploration companies to reach areas where larger conventional drilling equipment often struggles to operate efficiently.

Designed for Remote Exploration


Mining and exploration projects are increasingly moving into remote environments where logistics, accessibility, and operational efficiency can significantly impact project costs.


The CED SFM Series was developed to address these challenges by providing a platform capable of:


  • Accessing difficult terrain

  • Operating in remote environments

  • Reducing mobilization requirements

  • Improving project efficiency

  • Supporting exploration programs in challenging conditions


Whether operating in deserts, mountains, tropical regions, or remote exploration camps, the SFM Series is engineered to perform.

The Power of the 6x6 Platform


At the heart of every SFM Series unit is the proven 6x6 vehicle platform.

The vehicle has been designed to deliver:


  • Outstanding off-road capability

  • Excellent weight distribution

  • Superior traction in difficult conditions

  • Increased payload capacity

  • Reliable performance in remote locations


This allows operators to access drill sites more efficiently while reducing the need for extensive support infrastructure.


For many exploration companies, mobility is just as important as drilling capability, and the SFM Series has been engineered with this principle in mind.


Compact, Efficient, and Practical


One of the defining characteristics of the SFM Series is its compact footprint.

Compared with larger drilling systems, the SFM platform offers:


  • Faster mobilization

  • Lower transport costs

  • Reduced environmental footprint

  • Easier site access

  • Improved operational flexibility


These advantages make the SFM Series particularly attractive for early-stage exploration programs and projects where mobility is critical.

A Platform for Multiple Drilling Applications

The SFM Series has been developed as a versatile platform capable of supporting multiple drilling applications.


The range includes solutions designed for:


  • Diamond drilling

  • Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling

  • Air Core drilling

  • Water well drilling

  • Geotechnical drilling

  • Specialized exploration applications


This flexibility allows clients to select a solution that matches their project requirements while benefiting from the same proven vehicle platform.


Built Around Real Exploration Requirements


The development of the SFM Series was driven by a simple objective: create a drilling platform capable of operating where exploration companies need it most.

The result is a system that combines:


  • Mobility

  • Reliability

  • Efficiency

  • Simplicity

  • Practical field performance


Every aspect of the platform has been designed with the realities of exploration drilling in mind.


The Future of Mobile Drilling Solutions


As exploration projects continue to move into more remote and challenging environments, demand for compact and highly mobile drilling platforms continues to increase.


The CED SFM Series is positioned to meet this demand by providing a practical solution that combines the capabilities of a dedicated drilling rig with the mobility of a proven 6x6 vehicle platform.


Discover the CED SFM Series


The CED SFM Series represents CED's commitment to innovation, mobility, and practical drilling solutions for the global mining and exploration industry.


Whether supporting mineral exploration, water development, geotechnical investigations, or remote drilling projects, the SFM Series has been engineered to deliver reliable performance wherever the project takes it.
