Rock Drill and Drill String Safeguard System
RPCF Rotation Pressure Controlled Feeding
Continuously monitors and adjusts the feed pressure according to
the rotation pressure
If the rotation pressure continues to increase beyond a pre-defined
upper limit, the rock drill is pulled back and starts a new collaring
in the hole
Rock Drill and Drill String Safeguard System
Anti - Jamming automatics
FPCI Feed Pressure Controlled Impact
The percussion pressure is only allowed to ramp up full
impact level when the feed pressure is above a certain
”contact” level and the drill bit is properly pressed
against the rock.
Reduces the impact pressure when the feed pressure goes
under a certain ”contact” level
Rock Drill and Drill String Safeguard System
Double Dampener
absorbs the reflected shock wave energy before it reaches the
rockdrill
continuously presses the drill bit against the hole bottom and
keeps the drill steel joints tightened
