DM45 drilling in mud.
Epiroc DM45-50 rotary blasthole drilling rig

A legend in the drilling industry

Product description

The DM45/50 rotary blasthole drill rig along with their big brother, the DML, are some of the most popular drills in the world for good reason. All three models have proven themselves in almost every mining condition to deliver productivity, reliability, and low operating costs year after year.

 

The robust DM45/50 mainframe and tower design ensure a high asset life even in some of the toughest mining conditions. The double-cut structural tower lacing ensures a strong tower structure without the added weight of less efficient designs. When more air and pulldown are required, the DM45 evolves into a DM50 to give added flexibility to the larger hole sizes in the DM45/50 range.
