Atlas Copco Simba S7 Brings Flexibility, Precision to Mining
Long-hole Drilling Rig Built for Small Spaces
Atlas Copco is touting the ability of its Simba S7 long-hole drilling rig to operate precisely in tough conditions, including small to medium drifts. It is designed to bring flexibility to underground operations, which can be increased with add-on automated features.
Modular automation allows drillers to choose from a range of features beginning with ABC Regular, a one-hole automation system. ABC Regular enables options like Drill Plan Handling and Void Detection, and the Extractor for greater control throughout more of the drilling process in broken rock conditions, even fully automated drilling.
