This Sandvik DR580 is a used vertical drill — sometimes referred to as a rotary drill rig — a track-mounted machine designed for large-scale blast-hole drilling operations in mining and quarrying environments. Sandvik is a globally recognised Swedish engineering group with an extensive portfolio of mining, rock excavation, and construction equipment, and their drill rigs are widely deployed in surface mining operations around the world.
This 2012 machine is located in Western Australia and is offered in used condition. It has accumulated 14,931 hours of total operation, providing a clear picture of its working history. Notably, the rig reached a midlife service milestone at 12,208 hours, at which point engine repairs were carried out, indicating that major mechanical attention has been performed during the machine's service life.
The maintenance record includes several component replacements logged by hour. The starter motor was replaced at 12,637 hours. The rotary head — a core component of the drill's cutting and rotation system — was changed out at 11,319 hours. The air compressor, rated at 1,350 CFM and 500 PSI, was also replaced at 11,013 hours; this unit supplies the high-volume compressed air essential for flushing drill cuttings from the hole during operation.
The rig is track-mounted, giving it the mobility to reposition across uneven or rough mine site terrain without the need for auxiliary transport between drill patterns. The combination of a documented service history, recorded component replacements, and a known compressor specification makes this a reasonably well-documented used drill rig offering.
