Epiroc launches Boomer M20 – the world´s first face drill rig with internal hydraulics
Broomfield, Colorado: With protected hydraulics, sensors and cables, Epiroc’s new Boomer M20 is designed and built to minimize unplanned stops and maximize uptime and performance in highly demanding operations. This is the next generation in underground mining.
A challenging part of underground work is the everyday wear and tear on hydraulic hoses. Falling rocks and debris and continuous wear against the tunnel floor and walls means constant hose repairs. The Boomer M20´s heavy duty hose-less boom design minimizes unplanned stops for hose repairs, which keeps the rig up and running even in the toughest conditions.
