More power with less fuel

The SmartRig delivers the exact right amount of power for each

phase of the drilling operation from its new Stage 3/Tier III

engine. This makes it possible to reduce fuel consumption by

up to 30 % compared to similar rigs on the market.

Increased drilling efficiency

Using the SmartRig Rock Drill Control System, the service

life length of drilling consumables, such as the shank adapter

and drill steel, increases by more than 20 per cent. The

system works by adjusting drilling power to suit the ground

conditions, with the three vital control parameters being

rotation pressure, drill dampening pressure and penetration

rate.

The latter two are factory-set as default values according to

the basic rock types: hard, medium or soft. For harder rock,

the power is increased automatically. If voids are encountered,

the speed is automatically reduced. For softer rock, different

levels of control pressures are set. In addition to better economy

in consumables, the risk of drill strings getting stuck in blast

holes is reduced, resulting in increased rig availability and overall

drilling productivity.

Superb operator ergonomics and safety

With the SmartRig control system, electrical signals are generated

to control the hydraulic valves. This introduces the concept of a “dry

cab”, with no hydraulic pipe work and gauges, considerably reducing both

the noise for the operator and the risk of oil leakage. Control gauges and

instruments are replaced by a display unit. This releases space in the cab,

increases visibility, and improves operator ergonomics.

Easy maintenance & environmentally friendly

With 30 % less hoses and hose meters there is less need for maintenance and

less risk of spillage, making the SmartRig environmentally friendly. Service is

trouble-free with easy fault finding and self diagnostics
