Drilling and blasting

It all starts with drilling and blasting. The precision of your drill and blast process can dictate the productivity of every aspect of your mine operation. A well-executed drill pattern can improve blasthole quality and depth accuracy. Optimized blasting directly impacts fragmentation for better productivity in loading and hauling, as well as leaching and crushing.

Help optimize your drilling and blasting performance

Refine your drilling and blasting operation to help improve your downstream mining processes. To promote improved drilling accuracy, efficiency and productivity, leverage the advanced technology of Komatsu’s drilling and blasting solutions for:

  • yellow-checkmark Improved fragmentation as a result of increased drill pattern accuracy
  • yellow-checkmark Enhanced blast-yield efficiency
  • yellow-checkmark Minimized re-drilling and other re-work
  • yellow-checkmark Increased equipment utilization

With the high-precision for drilling we don’t have to paint dots on the ground anymore. So it saves the surveyors from being out in the field and has allowed them to focus on different projects.
