Cellula Robotics Ltd. successfully completed sea trials for its first CRD100 seafloor drill for Fukada Salvage & Marine Works Ltd. Co.

Built on proven subsystems, the CRD100 is self contained with a 100 HP power pack.   The CRD100 provides an unprecedented level of intelligent control that facilitates efficient core sampling and CPT pushes.  A wireline tool system further enhances the speed of operation.  The CRD100 uses standard Commercial off the Shelf (COTS) “size H” drilling tools, providing ø61.1 mm triple-tubed samples for 65 meters of continuous coring.
