Faster Drilling and Reduced Fuel Cost
This new offeringhas been scientifically designed around pressure and flow for a wide range of high-capacity drilling applications. These two new units are ideally suited for applications such as mineral exploration drilling, geothermal drilling, construction and blast hole Faster Drilling and Reduced Fuel Costs
In a first for Rand-Air, the company has acquired Atlas Copco DrillAir Y1260 variable high pressure (21 to 35 bar) compressors.
drilling; as well as for services such as aerated drilling and the drilling of wells. “Choosing the right compressor to match hole depth and hammer size is critical,” says Rand-Air Fleet Manager, Craig Swart. “With these two new compressors, our mining customers can choose the right compressor for their core business; and have the flexibility to adapt to changes in well depth and hammer size for any custom application.”
Ideal combination
Craig adds that DrillAir compressors can achieve maximum air flow at any pressure, as the relationship between pressure and flow is optimised, thereby creating the ideal combination of these two
Being able to match flow and pressure to their application requirements now eliminates the need to have two separate machines
