This Atlas Copco Smartroc T45 is a used vertical drill — sometimes referred to as a surface drill rig or top-hammer drill rig — designed for rotary and percussive drilling applications including mining, quarrying, construction, and blast-hole drilling. Atlas Copco is a well-established Swedish industrial group with a long history of manufacturing drilling, rock excavation, and compressed-air equipment for heavy industries worldwide.
This 2015 machine is located in Kentucky, USA, and comes equipped with a COP2560 drifter, which is a rock drill unit mounted on the rig and responsible for delivering the percussive energy to break through rock. The hour meters recorded at the time of listing show 2,919 engine hours and 907 percussion hours, the latter reflecting the actual working time the drifter has spent under load — a useful indicator of drill component wear that is often lower than total engine hours on machines of this type.
The rig features single-hole automatics, meaning it is configured for one-hole automated drilling cycles, which reduces operator intervention and supports consistent hole accuracy and productivity. It is also equipped with an automatic lubrication system, which delivers grease to critical components on a timed cycle to reduce maintenance demands and extend component life in demanding drilling environments.
Overall engine hours are moderate for a machine of this age, and the significantly lower percussion hours suggest the drill has spent a meaningful portion of its operating time on tasks other than active rock drilling, which is generally a positive indicator of drifter condition.
