Rotary blasthole drills
Atlas Copco offers the most comprehensive line of rotary blasthole drills in the industry. With a multitude of
configurations to choose from, you can find the perfect
solution for your needs. Many models can be configured
for either rotary or DTH drilling, and our blasthole products will drill holes from 4 inches to 16 inches in
diameter.
Third edition 2012
www.atlascopco.com/blastholedrills
On the following pages, you will find basic specifications
and brief descriptions of the standard and optional equipment available for each model. The different configurations of drill rigs and drill strings make it possible to find
high-performing solutions for a variety of applications.
Safety and ergonomic design with operator comfort and
well-being in mind, as well as simplicity in maintenance,
have been a focus for many years – and are still top
priorities.
When selecting your drill rig, you may have a choice
between high-pressure compressors for DTH drilling or
low-pressure units for rotary drilling, and between diesel
or electric power units. Depending on the drilling pattern
and bench height, you can select between drills suitable
for angle drilling or single- and multi-pass drilling.
Some rig models, like the T4BH and the DM series
that use conventional control systems, are well known
throughout the mining community for their rugged and
reliable designs.The newer Pit Viper series, with its more
advanced designs, can be equipped with the RCS computerized network control system which offers possibilities for different levels of drill automation and communication.
This is only a basic guide. Our product specialists around
the world are prepared to provide you with the information you need to select the best drill and drill string
package to suit your specific application.

DM25-SP
Technical data
The Atlas Copco DM25-SP is a crawler mounted, selfpropelled, hydraulic rotary table drive, single-pass rotary
drilling rig specifically designed for 4 in. to 6¾ in. (102
mm to 171 mm) blasthole applications to depths of up to
40 ft. (12.2 m) or 50 ft. (15.2 m) of clean hole, depending
on tower selection with either rotary or down-the-hole
drilling. Feed pressure generates a pulldown force of up
to 25,000 lbf (111 kN). The optional angle drilling package
allows the tower to be positioned up to a maximum of
15° from the vertical in increments of 5°. All controls for
positioning are located at the operator´s control console
inside the cab. The package includes a drill pipe support.

Pit Viper PV-235
The Pit Viper series 235 blasthole drills offers several
advanced options, like the RCS control system, remote
tramming, auto levelling, and GPS navigation. The hydraulic system has been refined with load sensing and
other features to reduce horsepower demand. There are
several engine and compressor combinations available
for either rotary or high pressure DTH drilling. The
PV-235 can be supplied with two towers - to drill 35 ft
(10.7 m) or 40 ft (12.2 m) clean holes up to 10 5⁄8"
(270 mm) in diameter.

Pit Viper 311
The Pit Viper 311 is a crawler-mounted, hydraulic
tophead drive, single-pass rotary drilling rig specifically
designed for the blasthole drilling of 9 in.(228 mm) to
12 1/4 in (311 mm) diameter holes. It has a single-pass
depth capability of 65’ (20 m) with total depth capability
of 135’ (41 m). Its hydraulic driven cable feed system is
capable of 110,000 lbf. (490 kN) of bit loading. Due to
the light weight of the cable feed system the PV-311
can operate with a “live tower”. A patented automatic
tensioning system eliminates down time for cable
adjustments. It has several advanced options like an
auto drilling system, auto levelling, remote tramming,
and GPS navigation.
