How It All Began

After working in the drilling industry for years, two brothers faced the same frustrating challenge day in and day out. The equipment available on the market was bulky, excessively heavy, and extremely difficult to transport. No matter how powerful these machines were, they often proved useless simply because they couldn’t reach tight or restricted job sites. That was the turning point. They asked themselves: “Why does a machine have to be huge to be powerful?”

Determined to find a better way, they took matters into their own hands to create something revolutionary, a compact drilling rig capable of tackling the toughest conditions, navigating narrow passages, and reaching places other machines wouldn’t dare go.

Their vision was clear: to build high-performance equipment affordable for every contractor, without making a single compromise on strength or quality.

The VLIG Story Begins. After months of engineering, prototyping, and rigorous field testing, the first portable electric drilling rig — the VB1-RIG — was launched in 2017. It proved that compact size doesn’t mean weak performance; instead, it delivers freedom, flexibility, and unmatched efficiency on site. Shortly after, solving another major industry pain point caused by failing legacy systems, they developed the H-Series universal swivel heads. What started as two brothers wanting to make their own work easier quickly grew into a brand that is now transforming the drilling industry worldwide.
