Electric generators powered by large diesel engines (the prime movers) generate electricity that move the heavy rig equipment such as the rotary table (or top drive), mud pumps and drawworks. Electric drill rigs are more expensive than mechanical rigs, but offer some nice advantages in return.
[pdf] Drilling and blasting are the two most significant operations in open pit mines that play a crucial role in downstream stages. While previous research has focused on optimizing these operations as two separate p.
[pdf] Available in a variety of feed lengths, boom configurations and size classes, our underground drill rigs maximize productivity while delivering the lowest cost per meter. We offer battery-driven underground drills for all underground drilling applications.
