Make every shift count with high-performance drilling

Engineered to thrive in demanding drilling environments, the Komatsu ZR122 rotary drill delivers powerful, consistent performance shift after shift. Built with a rugged boxer-style mast and intelligent automated systems, the ZR122 helps your operation stay on target—whether you’re drilling through tough rock or optimizing hole quality to reduce downstream costs. When productivity, availability, and cost-per-meter drilled are non-negotiable, the ZR122 brings the torque, precision and structural resilience to help you hit your daily production goals.

  • Robust Boxer-Style Mast: Increases structural reliability while reducing inspection time—supporting more machine availability and fewer unplanned interruptions.
  • High-Force Rack-and-Pinion Pulldown: Delivers 122,000 lbs. of weight on bit and 16,000 lbs. of rotary torque to power through the hardest rock with confidence
  • Automated Bit Carousel: Streamlines bit changes while reducing operator risk, helping maintain consistent fragmentation and hole stand-up integrity.
  • High-Precision GPS (HPGPS): Enables accurate hole placement to support better blasting outcomes and more efficient downstream processes.
  • Configurable and Application-Ready: Flexible design supports a range of setups to adapt to site-specific challenges and deliver low cost-per-meter drilled—even in difficult conditions.

Features and benefits

Solid boxer-style mast construction

Solid boxer-style mast construction

Enclosed section, boxer style mast enhances structural reliability and helps reduce downtime. Makes inspection and repair of potential cracks easier by helping to reduce crack initiation points and stress risers.

Innovative rack and pinion pulldown

Innovative rack and pinion pulldown

Help reduce maintenance time by promoting the reliability of the system. Innovative rack-and-pinion pulldown design was engineered to increase drilling forces for excellent dependability.

Auto-bit and pipe handling

Auto-bit and pipe handling

Help reduce bit change downtime and promote zero harm with an advanced auto-bit changer carousel. Helps to flex into a new hole diameter rapidly so operators can seamlessly adapt the drill pattern to reach peak fragmentation quickly.

Enhanced structural design

Enhanced structural design

Enhanced structural design on the mast, main and front frames are engineered for reliability. Easy to configure front frame allows optional add-ons or modification of the power supply.

Auto navigation capability with high-precision GPS (HPGPS)

Auto navigation capability with high-precision GPS (HPGPS)

Elevate your mine’s productivity with drilling accuracy ― high-precision GPS through auto-navigation capabilities . Allows movement of the drill between holes without the operator inside the cab.

Single, multi-pass angle drilling

Single, multi-pass angle drilling

Versatility to allow mines to select their mast configuration. Help mining operations adapt for multiple applications with the same drill.
