Atlas Copco Raiseboring equipment

Robbins 73RH C
Technical specification

With more units sold worldwide than any other raise drill model today, the
Robbins 73RH C has become the reliable workhorse for a variety of raise
boring application. The 73RH C is a medium sized raise drill, ranging from 1.5
to 2.4 m (5-8 ft.) in diameter. The Robbins 73RH C is also available with a high
torque hydraulic drive motor, which makes the machine capable of reaming
up to 3.1 m (10 ft.)
Features
»»Control system »»Derrick
• The Robbins raise drills apply the well established and • A patented, two piece swivel float box prevents transfer
proven Atlas Copco Rig Control System (RCS) which adds of bending moments to the gearbox, and a replaceable
reliability and user friendliness threaded insert lowers maintenance costs
• The components of the RCS are common and • Rigid crosshead guide columns provide efficient torque
interchangeable reaction extending the service life of the thrust cylinders
• The drill rig computer technology improves the drilling • A simple in-line drive system provides balanced thrust loads
accuracy, equipment reliability and serviceability to improve cutting action
• Integrated diagnostics and event logging system to assist in • Small footprint requires a smaller drilling pad and fewer tie
equipment maintenance down bolts
• The system prevents human errors by built in interlocks
• Standard functions include anti-jamming, auto makeup and
gradual ramp up of power at the start of pilot drilling and
reaming
• Trolley mounted operator panel with full-colour display

»»Drive system
• Hydraulic drive with variable speed and excellent torque
limiting control.
