Description: The Aries drill is an ITH drill unitized with an
on board booster. This drill is mounted on a mobile
center articulated carrier designed for high mobility in
underground mines with ramp access.
Performance: The Aries drill can be used to drill from
3 5/8” (92 mm) to 8.5” (216 mm) diameter holes to a
depth greater than 330” (100 m) down hole. The Aries
is also able to be fitted for V-30 drilling allowing for
economical slot raises, ventilation raises, ore passes,
emergency exits, waste chutes, service holes and
cable holes.
Accra Feed and ERIS panel
The inclusion of Accra Feed on Cubex underground
drills has increased overall drill performance by
providing optimal pressure to the bit in all rock
conditions. Lost drill string situations are reduced and
overall hole integrity is improved.
All the hydraulic control functions are electric/
hydraulic controlled through the CAN-BUS controller/
computer and programmable modules – this provides
more robust mechanical connections in the wiring
harnesses.
The Cubex ERIS system is set up so that mine managers
and engineers are able access the benefits of an
expandable control platform. This unit has proven
to be very reliable, while providing a high degree of
productivity.
