Acker Drill Company Acker Drill Company manufactures a wide range of heavy duty drilling equipment and tooling. Celebrating 100 Years!

Acker Drill Company was founded in 1916 and has been exporting its products worldwide since 1960. Today, we are recognized as a world leader in the manufacture of drill rigs and tooling for the geotechnical, environmental, mineral exploration, and civil engineering industries. We pride ourselves in our extensive line of drill rigs, which are unmatched in versatility, build quality and performance. And our drill rigs aren’t cookie-cutters – our staff excels at providing custom engineered solutions to site-specific problems, either on a design-build basis, or in co-operation with the client. This creates an environment that has allowed us to push innovation and set industry standards. Further, we are one of North America’s largest manufacturers of drilling consumables with our tooling widely used and distributed around the world. Throughout our 100 year history, our name has become synonymous with high quality, innovation, and exemplary customer service, which we believe is the cornerstone to our success.

The PT-22 is built for efficiency and reliability for year to come.
It's 31 HP diesel engine (non-DEF) provides plenty of power for the drill head's 1,300RPM coring capabilities.

Beloved by state agencies for it's ease of use and ability to core quickly for pavement testing, the PT-22 and PT-HD have also found a home with contractors performing airfield runway upgrades with the ability to core up to a 36” cross section.

We build drill rigs, but we do a lot more than that. Acker also handles tooling: split tubes, shelby tubes, augers, drill rod, specialty samplers, one-off custom pieces, and much more.

If the job calls for more than a standard setup, we can help build the rest too. Reach out to us at 1-800-752-2537 or [email protected].

Still thinking about Nashville! The Recon and Rebel XL High Torque hit the floor at the National Drilling Association’s Drill Expo on September 17 & 18, and we got plenty of time to talk rigs, drilling setups, and field work with people across the industry.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by and talked shop with the Acker team. See you all at Drill Expo 2027 in Indiana!

KODIAK was built for the jobs with no room to mess around.

Under 8 ft. of clearance, 77" of stroke when you have the space, and removable drill heads for augering and coring, along with SPT capabilities. Compact, modular, and ready to work.
