drills has increased overall drill performance by
Tramming Length 3 581 mm 196.7”
providing optimal pressure to the bit in all rock
conditions. Lost drill string situations are reduced and Tramming Width 1 829 mm 72”
overall hole integrity is improved. Tramming Height 2 715 mm 108”
Weight 12 700 kg 28 000 lb
All the hydraulic control functions are electric/ Tramming Speed, Electric
hydraulic controlled through the CAN-BUS controller/ 2 kph 1.2 mph
