Optimizes your mining process
Surface mining equipment from Atlas Copco has a rocksolid reputation for productivity and dependability. The SmartROC D65 DTH mining rig is designed with leading-edge automation technology and uses both brains and power to drill production blast, pre-split and buffer holes. This is the future of open pit mining.

The SmartROC D65 is the mining mastermind. Brilliant and built to last.
Minimize your non-drilling time
The Hole Navigation System (HNS) is the intelligent option that permits a faster setup so you can get right down to effective, high-precision drilling in any weather conditions. Shrink your production costs by optimizing drilling and blasting, improving fragmentation and reducing the quantity of explosives needed. HNS removes the need to manually mark and survey hole positions. This greatly improves both efficiency and safety on the bench.
An extraordinary part for an extraordinary rig
The SmartROC D65 shares its powerful drilling capacity and versatility with Atlas Copco’s popular ROC L8 rig, yet the addition of a computerized brain in the SmartROC D65 empowers it with the capability and intelligence to reach new levels of excellence, making it the mining crawler of the future. The SmartROC D65 will help you unearth greater productivity and revolutionize the workplace.
Great control and planning
The operation of your SmartROC can be integrated with other systems based on the International Rock Excavation Data Exchange Standard (IREDES) file format. By integrating with planning and fleet management tools, you achieve greater control of your operation. The rig reports back to you in the form of log files. The easy-to-use ROC Manager application helps you manage these log files and consolidate data from multiple rigs.
