Our story

About Drilltek Systems

Drilltek Systems is a technology-driven engineering company specializing in autonomous trenchless solutions for last-mile underground utility installations. Built on more than four decades of trenchless expertise, we combine advanced mechatronics, precision sensor fusion, and patented drilling automation to deliver smarter, faster, and cleaner underground infrastructure.

Our Mission

To transform compact horizontal drilling through automation, precision, and sustainability—making underground infrastructure installation safer, more efficient, and accessible to every contractor and municipality.

Our Vision

A world where cities expand their digital and energy networks without disruption—where roads stay open, environmental impact is minimized, and underground work is executed with aircraft-level accuracy.

About Drilltek Systems

What We Do

Drilltek Systems designs and builds compact autonomous drilling robots capable of installing fiber, gas, water, and power lines in dense urban environments. Our platform integrates:

  • Autonomous guidance & path correction
  • Real-time AR visualization for depth, pitch, roll, and yaw
  • High-precision IMU / INS fusion
  • Electric propulsion & smart drilling algorithms
  • Minimal-excavation drilling workflows
  • Full data logging & digital twin integration

This technology enables compact trenchless installations at a cost similar to open-cut, but with far fewer disruptions to urban areas.

Engineering Heritage

Drilltek Systems combines deep industry roots with modern innovation. The company evolved from a 40-year family history in underground drilling equipment manufacturing and services across the Balkans. This legacy gives us unique insight into real-world jobsite needs, operator challenges, and the limitations of traditional trenchless equipment.
