EMIT Canada: Robotic Blasthole Drill Rig System Eliminates Dangerous Manual Labor #319

🔸 Visit EMIT Canada: https://emit-ca.com/

Handling steel components on a blasthole drill rig is one of the most dangerous jobs in mining. It’s physically demanding, time-consuming, and often requires a team of three or more people—putting skilled workers directly in harm’s way.

In this special episode of Mining NOW, filmed at CIM CONNECT, Enrique Monroy from EMIT Canada joins host Rory Bamford to introduce a powerful innovation: the Robotic System for Blasthole Drill Rigs. This fully automated lifting system replaces manual handling of critical drill tools such as drill bits, deck bushings, top and bottom subs, and shock absorbers. By removing human involvement from this high-risk task, the system dramatically reduces the chances of injury or fatal accidents.

Built for durability and performance in tough mining environments, the robotic system is designed to meet safety compliance standards and integrates easily with most OEM drill rigs. There’s no need to replace your existing drill engine. With specialized lifting attachments and an anti-shock system to prevent sudden movements or accidents, EMIT’s solution not only improves safety but also speeds up operations and reduces downtime.

EMIT Canada is proving that safety and innovation go hand in hand. This episode offers a first look at how robotic automation is solving real challenges in the mining industry.

Watch the full episode to see how EMIT is leading the way in robotic mining systems and drill rig safety.
