Rock support drill rigs

Sandvik rock support drill rigs are designed to install rock bolts of various types in a safe and efficient way after blasting. Available in high-capacity standard models as well as low profile (LP) and extra low-profile (XLP) models for use in low reefs and seams, they both drill the holes and install the bolts in rapid sequence. Equipped with a telescopic boom, efficient hydraulic rock drill and universal bolting head, they have advanced ergonomic controls with many automatic functions and built-in safeguards to ensure maximum safety.

Rock support drill rigs

Bolting mechanization ensures total reliability and integrity of every single bolt installation. These rigs can handle every type of bolts in various dimensions, including cable bolt. In all cases the operator conducts the entire operation from the safety of a well-protected control station on the rig.
