Atlas Copco Rock Drills

COP 1638
A new, 16 kW hydraulic rock drill for fast tunnelling and
drifting in the hole range 33 - 76 mm. High penetration rate
and excellent drill steel life.

The new COP 1638 is developed from COP 1838ME • Separate lubrication of fronthead and driver together
with its well-known COP 1800 technique. In order with pressurized and lubricated mating surfaces and
to give best performance at 16 kW impact power sidebolts for the best protection against wear and cor-

higher productivity and better drilling economy.
• Low profile permits drilling close to walls with only 2
degrees look-out angle.
Main features
• Impact piston design matches the size of the drill steel.
This feature gives minimum drill steel stress.
• Very easy to adapt the rock drill to different rock or bit
conditions.
• The well-known Atlas Copco double-dampening
system provides good bit-rock contact giving high
penetration rates, and is "gentle" to the drill steel,
absorbs harmful recoil energy and tightens drill steel
thread joints.
• Powerful, stepless variable and reversible rotation mo-
tor gives high torque and enables great rotation speed
flexibility.
