Description
The S36 rock drill is a market leading drifter style rock drill with a powerful 144 mm diameter bore and independent rotation. It is designed for deep hole drilling in both surface and underground applications when mounted on suitable feed systems.
PERFORMANCE
The S36 provides exceptional performance through fast penetration rates, high durability, and efficient air consumption. It utilizes a powerful, independent gear type rotation motor with high-torque for use in a wide variety of ground conditions. The independent hammer and rotation allow for varied adjustments to help dial in optimal performance based on the application, as well as easier coupling and uncoupling of drill steels.
APPLICATIONS
The S36 performs exceptionally well in both underground and surface applications. Underground, it can be mounted on either screw or chain feed cradles for development tunneling, fan hole, and ring drilled blast holes. Special purpose applications can be extended to long holes for water drainage or communication purposes.
For surface applications, the S36 is an ideal machine for track drill or wagon drill use when mounted on a chain feed. It can be used for quarry benching and pre-splitting holes as well as for general-purpose drilling in civil contracting. The S36 is the standard pneumatic drill for Boart Longyear’s Stopemate™.
DESIGN
The S36 is based on a proven, durable design that has been updated to include premium materials designed and manufactured to exacting tolerances. The internal component layout is designed to provide excellent durability performance under the most demanding conditions. Efficient lubrication is achieved through atomized oil that is introduced via a lubricator fitted to the incoming air line. This feeds the internal lubrication system, which provides oil to the key internal and heavily loaded components for maximum life. The S36 is designed for remote control operation only.
