Rock Drilling Rigs: Our compressors are key for surface drilling and underground mining. They give the right high pressure air needed to drill through even the hardest rock. They're also used for drilling into the earth for heat (geothermal) and for making water wells. Our compressors provide steady and continuous airflow for all kinds of drilling works.
Tunneling Equipment: Our compressors play an important part in the construction industry helping tunnel machines spray wet concrete to cover a wide range of tunnel and cavern profiles. They also run the ANFO (ammonium nitrate-fuel oil) charging devices that carefully place explosives in mines and tunnels.
Shotcrete spraying and explosives charging: Compressed air is the perfect medium for spraying shotcrete onto the surfaces of mined tunnels.Equipment for ANFO or emulsion explosives charging benefits significantly from an onboard compressor, eliminating the need for an external pressure airline and making the process more agile and cost-efficient.
End of borehole air flushing: After a borehole is drilled into a substrate, air flushing is recommended to remove debris with compressed air. End of the borehole air flushing is accomplished utilizing the same Tamrotor CT-series compressor used for shank lubrication and air mist flushing.
Down the hole (DTH): Down the hole (DTH) and In the hole (ITH) applications require pressured air flow to run the hammer. Pressured air is medium for energy transfer for the rock drill. Pressure and air flow in typical DTH applications is from 24bar and 18m3 /min to 28m3 /min and 30 bar. Water well drilling requires even higher pressures.
