LOGAN VTS100
The VTS-100 is a direct drive 100 ton capacity Power Swivel. The single direct drive hydraulic motor eliminates the need for gears, providing improved efficiency, smoother operation and great dependability. The VTS-100 is equivalent in size to the PS85, but incorporates the torque output of the PS120.
Features Include:
- Smooth, shock-free torque reduces drill string damage
- Direct drive hydraulic motor offers greater efficiency and dependability
- Heavy duty 10,000 psi floating washpipe assembly
- Increased drill string control with smooth, shock-free torque
- Can be powered by any Logan PS120 Power Unit with minor modification. Note: The hydraulic oil MUST be changed to an AW-68 hydraulic oil for most climates

VENTURETECH XK-90
Using a vane-type, hollow shaft hydraulic motor, the swivel stem is driven directly by a massive lubricated spline. The only moving parts are the hydraulic motor, stem, and packing cartridge. No gears are required, so motor speed is swivel speed – very low by hydraulic standards, and very good for long life. This also means service is easy, allowing the entire hydraulic drive including swivel shaft bearings and seals to be removed together by simply unbolting and pulling it down off the stem. We want you to keep your hydraulic oil clean, but we understand the challenge, and this hydraulic motor eats dirt well. Regardless, there is excellent filtration on the pump to keep the oil clean.
Features Include:
- The XK-90 also has unique lubrication and sealing features. Lower shaft bearings are pressure-lubricated with hydraulic oil, dual upper seals are pressure-greased, and all seals run on hardened and ground wear bushings to prevent stem wear and corrosion.
- Our washpipes and packing are designed for long life, and have no holes through their wall that can leak wellbore fluid. Another special feature is that the packing cartridge may be installed either way. When installed upside down with the main packing nut on top and non-rotating, the packing may be greased while drilling with an air-powered greasing system. This can extend packing life dramatically during difficult drilling situations
- Our lifting device is an elevator bail on the XK-90. Standard torque reaction arrangement uses one telescoping torque arm, which is designed with wire rope sheaves for rolling contact with a wire rope tensioned between crown and floor.
