Sandvik DS512i Rock Bolter
The rock bolter DS512i for 5m x 5m size headings from Sandvik Mining and Rock Technology is equipped with a completely new carrier, high frequency rock drill, control system and ergonomic cabin, the Sandvik DS512i offers high levels of safety and efficiency for all rock reinforcement operations.
The DS512i is equipped with the new FOPS / ROPS cabin as standard. This reduces noise, vibration and dust levels and improves visibility while drilling and tramming. An interactive graphic user interface enables all bolting operations to be performed by a single operator in safety.
The eight-rock bolt carousel ensures that the DS512i is capable of installing different types of rock bolts ranging from 1.6m (5’) to 6m (20’) in length. An automatic resin shooting and cement mixing system further guarantees a high quality rock reinforcement process. Able to carry a 1200 kg cement silo, the DS512i delivers increased meshing as well as hole angle measurement and an advanced boom manipulator. Designed specifically for tunneling and mining, the DS512i has been developed based on a modularized concept leading to high levels of parts commonality with the Sandvik DT922i, enabling lower levels of total cost of ownership.
