CSC Robotic Engineering is bringing the future of construction to CONEXPO 2026 by showcasing its latest DRILLCORPIO drilling robots. This article explains how the D3 and Df models automate complex drilling tasks, helping contractors save time and keep workers safe. Learn about the specific features of these robots and how they can be used on both commercial and civil projects.
The construction world is headed to Las Vegas for CONEXPO, and CSC Robotic Engineering is ready to show off its latest innovation. The company is highlighting its DRILLCORPIO line, which features self-navigating robots built to handle one of the most tiring jobs on a site: drilling. These robots are designed to help contractors finish projects faster while moving workers out of harm’s way.
Meet the DRILLCORPIO D3 and Df models
The DRILLCORPIO D3 is a specialized robot made for drilling and installing anchors in ceilings and walls. One of its best features is that it can be mounted to a standard scissor lift without needing any special modifications. This makes it perfect for MEP and fire protection contractors who need to install overhead systems quickly. By automating these tasks, the D3 reduces the time workers spend at heights and protects them from hazardous silica dust.
The DRILLCORPIO Df is a heavy-duty model designed for drilling into floors, walls, and ceilings. It is built for both commercial and civil projects, such as anchor installation or rebar doweling. This model is a powerhouse for floor work, featuring an impressive hammering power and the ability to drill over three feet deep. Both the D3 and the Df are commercially available, allowing contractors to put this technology to work now.
Why automation and navigation matter
For contractors, the biggest benefit of the DRILLCORPIO line is the self-navigation system. These robots use imported plan drawings to find their targets with high accuracy. They can intelligently detect and avoid obstacles, which ensures the work keeps moving even on a busy jobsite.
Using these robots also solves a major safety issue. Manual drilling into concrete creates silica dust and causes long-term strain on a worker’s body. The DRILLCORPIO robots are OSHA silica-compliant and take on the physical burden of the work. This allows human workers to focus on more complex tasks while robots handle repetitive, hazardous work.
If you are attending CONEXPO 2026, be sure to visit the CSC Robotic Engineering booth to see these machines in action.
