Drill Rigs and Roof Bolters for Low-Profile Mining

The FLP1410 mining jumbo drill and Roof Master 1.4 roof bolter are crafted for optimal performance in mine sections as low as 1.6 meters, ensuring high safety standards, operator comfort, and ease of maintenance. The FLP1410 stands out as the only super-low profile model on the market featuring an Automatic Drilling System (ADS), which enhances efficiency by enabling autonomous drilling during shift changes. This system supports multi-rig supervision by a single operator, improving productivity while ensuring precise face, floor, roof, and sidewall geometry to reduce scaling and simplify bolting and tramming.

Face Master 1.7 and Roof Master 1.7 – Built for Room and Pillar Operations

For low-profile room and pillar mining, the Face Master 1.7 face drilling rig and Roof Master 1.7 roof bolter operate in excavations as low as 1.9 meters. Given the ventilation challenges in such confined spaces, Mine Master integrates Stage V diesel engines, ensuring compliance with the latest exhaust emission standards. These rigs are available in multiple configurations, aligned with the company’s philosophy of "rigs for your needs."

Face Master 1.7D – A fully autonomous underground drill powered by a diesel engine, eliminating reliance on the mine’s electric grid and enhancing flexibility in underground operations.

Roof Master 1.7K – Designed in collaboration with J.H. Fletcher, this bolter includes a “Man-in-Position” system, allowing single-operator bolting with mechanical and resin bolts in 1.6m, 1.8m, and 2.6m lengths.

Roof Master 1.7KA – Next-Level Automated Roof Bolting

The Roof Master 1.7KA, also developed in partnership with J.H. Fletcher, features an automatic drilling mast, making it an ideal solution for efficient bolting. This machine installs 1.8-meter bolts in galleries from 2.2 to 4.5 meters and 1.6-meter bolts in galleries from 2.0 to 4.5 meters. It offers:
✔ Enhanced operator safety and comfort
✔ Improved consumable life during drilling
✔ User-friendly control layouts for simplified operation and training

Face Master 2.1 – Solution for Mining in Extremely Tight Spaces

For operations in extremely tight spaces, the Face Master 2.1 is a versatile, compact drill rig measuring only 1,350 mm in width, ensuring high productivity in face drilling and long-hole drilling applications. It features:
✔ Quick feeder position resets
✔ Enhanced accuracy for vein deposit drilling

Battery-Powered Low-Profile Drill Rigs and Bolters

To reduce operational costs and improve miner safety, Mine Master has introduced battery-powered mining equipment for low-profile applications. The Face Master 1.7KE and Roof Master 1.8KE share a unified chassis for streamlined maintenance and are powered by on-board 120kWh electric batteries. These models provide an ideal solution for underground mining operations, where ventilation costs and worker safety are critical concerns.

SWOI 1.4 and SWOI 1.7 - Auxiliary Machines for Additional Roof Support

Mine Master’s SWOI 1.4 and SWOI 1.7 auxiliary machines are designed for efficient temporary hydraulic roof support in confined spaces. These machines:
✔ Pump an emulsion mixture via hydraulic hoses for easy prop height adjustments
✔ Feature quick-release valves for rapid prop removal
