Redesigned control system for better usability
The new Pantera DPi 6.0 provides a redesigned control system with an updated user interface and touch screen. Featuring Sandvik's latest user interface style, support for new drill rig options and enhanced trouble shooting functions, the new control system provides easier and even more accurate operations.

Reduced oil and fuel consumption
To optimize its drilling performance the new Pantera DPi 6.0 drill rig is available with a high frequency RD1635CF rock drill with Circulating Shank Lubrication System (CSL) that guarantees fast and efficient penetration. In CSL oil is circulated through filters and reused, rather than just collected. "The new CSL system reduces shank lubrication oil consumption by up to 70 % compared to the old system, and increases significantly the life time of coupling sleeves", says Ilkka Lahdelma, Product Line Manager, Surface Drilling, Sandvik Construction. He further explains; "the drill rig has really been redesigned with economy in mind. It has also been enhanced with a new compressor control system that provides even better fuel efficiency".

Further improvements found on the Pantera DPi 6.0 include modifications to the exterior design which improves accessibility thereby enabling far easier maintenance. In addition, the drill rig comes with the latest high-tech options, such as the Driller's Notes. The latter is a completely new feature that allows the operator to add hole information, such as voids and cavities, to hole quality reports during drilling.

As with the earlier versions, Pantera DPi 6.0 surface top hammer drill rigs are intelligent, self-propelled, self-contained, crawler based surface drill rigs which are designed to be used in quarrying, production drilling as well as wall control and development works.

The Pantera DPI 6.0 drill rig family consists of two models: Pantera DP1100i for hole sizes of 89 – 140 mm and Pantera DP1500i for hole sizes of 102 –152 mm. Both are available with low fuel-consumption and low-emission Tier 3 and Tier 4 Final engines.
