MC‑E15 overview
The Comacchio MC‑E15 is a compact, hard‑hitting drilling attachment that mounts on a 15‑ton excavator to handle micropiles, anchors, soil nails, and other deep foundation work in tight or sloped access. It uses the excavator boom and MC‑E mast articulation to reach difficult positions along road edges, slopes, docks, and congested urban sites where a conventional rig cannot set up.
