Epiroc’s new Boomer M20 is said to be the next generation in underground mining, designed and built with protected hydraulics, sensors and cables to minimise unplanned stops and maximise uptime and performance in highly demanding operations. A challenging part of underground work is the wear and tear on hydraulic hoses due to falling rocks and debris and the continuous wear against tunnel floor and walls. The Boomer M20´s heavy duty hose-less boom design minimises unplanned stops for hose repairs, which keeps the rig up and running even in the toughest conditions. High precision and performance are ensured with on-board automation features, tele-remote capabilities and digital drill plans, eliminating the need for adjustments on the surface. Contact: Epiroc.
