This Sandvik DC400RI is a used vertical drill, a type of machine also commonly referred to as a rock drill or down-the-hole drill, designed for percussive rotary drilling into rock and hard ground. Vertical drills of this kind are widely used in quarrying, mining, and construction for tasks such as blast hole drilling, ground investigation, and site preparation. Sandvik is a well-established Swedish engineering group with a long history of manufacturing drilling and rock excavation equipment for the mining and construction industries worldwide.
This particular machine was built in 2017 and is offered for sale from the United Kingdom in used condition. It has accumulated 2,829 engine hours and 756 impact hours, the latter figure indicating the total time the percussion mechanism has been in active use — a useful indicator of wear on the drill's core drilling components.
The drill operates within a hole diameter range of 51 to 76 millimetres, making it suitable for a variety of small to medium blast hole and probe hole applications. It is equipped with radio remote control, allowing the operator to manage drilling operations from a safe distance — a significant practical and safety advantage in demanding site environments. The machine weighs 10,000 kilograms.
