Face Master 1.7K

The Face Master 1.7K vehicle is equipped with a hydraulically operated, ergonomic, “capsule” type operator’s cabin conforming with FOPS&ROPS. The cabin, which is not only air-conditioned but also equipped with the H2S filter gives the operator very good visibility even in lowered positions.

The new design of the telescopic boom with full automatic parallelism in both planes allows it to be used for cross-cutting as well. This new design significantly helps to improve the day-to day maintenance - thanks to the applied patented solution the replacement of all wear slides can be done in ar. 15 minutes without the need to disassemble the boom. Before the same operation took one working shift (4-5 hrs). Similarly, easy to reach electrical installation and hydraulics greatly improve the time of maintenance.

More precise and thus more effective drilling can be conducted with the Face Master 1.7K with an option of a drilling monitoring system. Mine Master can equip this underground drill rig with an easy and simple DMS system (Drilling Monitoring System) or with more advanced Feeder Guiding System (FGS). Both system are well suited for drilling in a room and pillar system. When the operator places the working unit in the face, on the reference point and at the right angle, the computer assists him to execute the desired drilling pattern. All drilling parameters are recorded on the registration box. The 24 hour operation data is transferred via WI-FI, showing the quantity of drilled holes, drilling time and the comparison of the actual drilled pattern with the desired one.
