SANDVIK DR412i TECHNICAL SALES MANUAL
STANDARD MACHINE
The DR412i was developed from the former DR460 drill rig that is produced in Alachua,
Florida. It is a rotary blasthole drill also with the ability to drill “Down the Hole” (DTH). Sandvik
is dedicated to bringing their products into the next generation of drilling with the new i-series
machines. This model has taken full advantage of the evolution of the Graphical User Interface
making this machine much more user friendly with the system running diagnostics and
controlling interlocks installed on the machine, it makes it easier to operate and easier to
troubleshoot.
The DR412i takes safety to the next level, adding more walkways, hand railings and safety
interlocks. It has been designed to be fully compliant with various safety standards around the
world, such as MDG (Guideline for Mobile and Transportable Equipment in Mines, NSW) and
EMESRT (Earth Moving Equipment Safety Roundable).
• Lubrication for the pull-down chains with a 208 L (55 gallon) central lubrication system manually
activated from a central point
• Wide flange structural steel beam frame with oscillating yoke mounting
• In-seat drilling operation joystick controls & push button mode selector switches
• Hose routing conforms to Australian MDG-15; separated using Stauff (or equivalent clamps)
• CAD/FEA designed mast construction, welded recessed side members reinforced in high stress
areas
• Safety Interlocks are installed to disallow dangerous actions during tramming, leveling or drilling
• Ground level emergency shut off controls, one at each point of ingress, one at main electrical
cabinet and others at isolated locations
PERFORMANCE
Sandvik DR412i is a diesel powered, self-propelled crawler mounted blasthole drill for bulk mining
operations. It is equipped for drilling in Rotary or DTH (Down-the-Hole) configuration and 229 to 311
mm (9 inch to 12-1/4 inch) diameter holes. The DR412i is a rugged design ideal for drilling in hard
rock applications. The DR412i has an ergonomically designed cab with unique “all in the seat” drilling
and tramming controls that maximizes operator comfort and productivity, day in and day out.
In optional configurations the drill comes as a Single-Pass drill with first pass capability of 18 m (59’)
and total (Single-Pass) depth capacity is up to 33,2 m (109’), or the drill is offered in a Multi-Pass
configuration with a maximum depth of 75 m (246’). The standard hydraulic motor and chain feed
delivers up to 356 kN (80 000 lbf) maximum pulldown and bit load up to 400 kN (90 000 lbf).
Optional equipment also adapts the drill for a down the hole hammer application. It was designed
prioritizing high penetration rate, easy maintenance, good availability and an ergonomic work
environment.
The standard DR412i has four jacks, two at the cooler end and two at the cab end, the jacks
are served by dual control valves allowing for both the cooler end jacks and the cab end jacks
to have the same flow and lowering rate.
The DR412i has the option to have Auto-Level installed, meaning that the operator just puts
the drill into leveling mode, and the rig, using its frame angle sensor, can determine when it
is perfectly level, much quicker than a human operator.
LEVELING JACKS
There are four hydraulically controlled leveling jacks, each with a bore diameter of 203 mm (8”)
and a stroke length of 1524 mm (60”) with a rod diameter of 102 mm (4”). There is the option to
have the stroke lengthened giving it a length of 1828 mm (72”). The pad diameter on the jacks
is 762 mm (30”), and when retracted they clear the ground by 609 mm (24”) at the front and
635 mm (25”) at the back. Each jack has a lift capacity of 670 kN (150 700 lbf) at a pressure of
3,000 psi and is equipped with a fail-safe system in the event of unexpected loss of hydraulics.
There is an indicator light on the operator’s console to show if the jacks are retracted or not.
There are interlocks in place that prevent the drill from moving if the jacks are down, or if the
mast is not locked, the jacks are deactivated when in the tramming or drilling modes.
SANDVIK DR412i TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
The Sandvik DR412i has a mast construction of welded rectangular tubing with
recessed side members and is reinforced in high stress areas.
• The drill is designed to be either a single-pass machine with a first pass
capability of 18 m (59 ft) with the option to add 2 extra pipes of, 15 m (25
ft) allowing for a 33 m (109 ft) total hole depth.
• Multi-pass drill with a maximum depth of 75 m (246 ft), and a first pass
capability of 12.2 m (40 ft). The multi-pass configuration features 12,8m
(42 ft) pipes which allows for fewer pipe changes to achieve desired
depth, leading to greater efficiency.
The mast is raised and lowered by two hydraulic cylinders with a lift capacity
each of 820 kN (184 400 lbf) @ 2900 psi each. The mast is then locked into
place with two 101.6 mm (4”) pins which engage 76,2 mm (3”) thick lugs in the
base of the mast weldment. These are hydraulically actuated, and feature an
indicator light on the operator’s console in order to mark the full lock position
and are interlocked to the drilling mode.
Drill pipe changing is accomplished from within the cabin, at the operator’s
seat. A hydraulic breakout wrench breaks the joint with limited impact. Extra drill
pipes are stored in a carousel-type changer, which is capable of holding two
extra pipes on the single-pass option and 5 extra pipes on the multi-pass
option. Hydraulic cylinders swing the carousel into and out of the loading
position underneath the rotary head.
POWER TONG
The power tong is a “no hands” type, which is fully hydraulic and controlled
remotely from inside the cabin. The power tong itself is located inside the mast
underneath the pipe loader. It has an integral 4 jaw type tong, with replaceable
insert dies. These are positioned using a hydraulic cylinder. The clamp is
positioned using another cylinder and the break cylinder used by the power is
also the same size. The maximum torque of the tong is 67,650 Nm (49,900 ft
lbs) to ensure ample breakout power.
SANDVIK DR412i TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
WINCH
A planetary hydraulic type, located on the
side of the mast with a hoisting capacity of
2,948 kg (6,500 lbs). The cable is 30,5 m
(100’) with a diameter of 12,7 mm (1/2”).
The line speed for the winch is rated at
37,5 m/min (123 fpm), with a spring set,
and hydraulic release brake.

The Sandvik DR412i uses a hydraulic motor and a heavy series roller chain, for both the feed
and retracting of the rotary head. The primary drive chain for the system is a heavy series roller
chain with heavy side bars and through hardened pins, with an ANSI #240, 76,2 mm (3.0”) pitch
and an ultimate strength of 921 kN (207,200 lbf). The system uses chains for the feed
and retract of the rotary head, they are both heavy series roller chains with heavy side bars
and through hardened pins, these have an ANSI#200, 63.5 mm (2.5”) pitch and an ultimate
strength of 598 kN (134,400 lbf). The chains are manually adjusted by hydraulic cylinders.
The rated downward pressure and pull back at 72% efficiency are both 356 kN (80,000 lbf),
with a fast feed rate of 0 to 43.9 m/min (0 to 144 fpm). The feed timing shaft ensures constant
rotary head alignment (not possible with cables). The hydraulic pump for the feed system is
shared with that of the right hand track.
SANDVIK DR412i TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
The Sandvik DR412i drill has a CAT C27 652 kW (875 HP) diesel engine. This is fueled by a
3,785 L (1000 gallon) diesel tank that is mounted underneath the rig between frame beams. A
heavy duty muffler is mounted over the engine with heavy duty guarding.
The engine is connected to an oil flooded screw, single or double stage Sullair compressor. For
the High Pressure variant of the drill the compressor has an inlet flow of 41 m³/min (1450 scfm)
with a maximum operating pressure of 24.1 bar (350 psi) and for the Low Pressure variant, the
compressor has an inlet flow of 56,6 m³/min (2000 scfm) with a maximum operating pressure of
6.9 bar (100 psi). This system is cooled by AKG coolers in the standard variant with the option of
using L&M coolers which allows individual replacements of tubes in the field without radiator
removal leading to increased availability. The L&M option is required for arctic conditions to help
mitigate the thermal expansion.

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
The Sandvik DR412i has advanced hydraulic system that is controlled by the computer
software that is installed on the machine. The system features a best in class filtration system
(5 micron).
The DR412i’s hydraulic system also uses a different type of tubing connection; there is now an
“O-Ring” Seal. This allows for a much stronger connection of tubes, reducing the risk of thread
wear and leakages.

SANDVIK DR412i TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
The Sandvik DR412i has fourteen 70 watt lights installed, they are arranged to light the mast,
the drill table, the deck, and the fore and aft ground area. The lights are controlled by a switch
and circuit breaker at the operator’s panel. The drill also has installed 2 HELLA brand LED
flashing beacons, one is on top of the cab and the other is on top of the mast.
There is also the option to replace the regular lights to fourteen LED lights.
BEACON
The drill has a beacon located on top of the mast (pictured), on the mast rest and also
one on top of the operator’s cabin. This is a required safety feature, and a standard on
all of the drills
MAINTENANCE LIGHTS
These are lights and are located at specific points to illuminate maintenance areas and
also provide general spot lighting. The maintenance light switch is located next to the
lock-out box.
The Sandvik DR412i has a 360 degree service walkway as a standard feature, with self-closing
gates at any access point on the machine, except the main access stairway.
Following the Australian Standards AS1657, all the walkways are made of self-cleaning gratings
which have been laid in the correct direction of “foot traffic”. Except the masts maintenance
platform, this has been made of expanded metal.
Another feature is the “hinged” egress ladders, which have been installed at the following
locations:
Sandvik has also developed a hydraulic main access stairway to AS 1657 standards; it is a
standard feature, located in-front of the cab on the right hand side of the drill. It is designed to
be a safer alternative to accessing the drill rig rather than using vertical hanging steps. This
stairway enables the operator or maintenance personnel to bring tools up onto the drill with a
reduced risk of falling.
This stairway has been designed to be self-leveling depending on the topography of the
ground around the drill; it is also built to be able to accommodate the different heights the drill
levels at depending on the height of jack extension. Regardless of the height of the machine,
the steps are always at a 90˚ angle, with the angle of the stairs at between 30 and 45˚, thus
always ensuring a safe and easy access.
• The system has an electric over hydraulic power pack enclosed in a stainless steel cabinet.
• The stair is operated by a 63,5 mm (2.5”) hydraulic bore cylinder, located underneath the
stairway, attached to the main frame.
• There is an emergency hydraulic by-pass needle valve, which is used to lower the stairs
should the machine shutdown.
• Hand railing and steps meet the Australian Standard.
• The control has two push buttons, one to raise the steps and the other to lower them.
• Tramming interlocks in place to disallow movement of the machine while the stairway is
lowered.

SANDVIK DR412i TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
The Sandvik DR412i has an ergonomic cab designed to ensure the maximum comfort and
ease of operation for the operator. The design of this cab will be used as the standard
specifications for all other large Sandvik Drill Rigs. The cab has a different shape that has been
designed so that the operator always has a good view of the hole while spotting, this give them
much more comfort. Likewise, the windows on the drill have been designed with an outward 5˚
tilt, so that there is reduced glare from the sun light when it hits the window, increasing the
operators comfort and also helping reduce heat load in the cab.
Unlike other machines with air conditioning units installed on the roof, the DR412i has no
rooftop equipment, so that there will be no reason for a maintenance person to go up there.
This decreases the risk of falling, another Sandvik emphasis on safety. The roof of the cab has
been designed with a canopy, known as a “Safari Roof” which sits above the actual roof, with 4
inch air gap between them. This means that due to the air gap beneath it, the actual cab roof
will heat up less, making the cab more comfortable.
CAB CONTROLS
ERGONOMIC CONTROLS
The operator’s controls are CanBus and are located on each arm rest, meaning that the
operator is sitting comfortably in a fully ergonomic seat and can easily operate the machine.
All controls follow ISO labeling standards.
CAB FEATURES
The Sandvik DR412i uses the GUI system as a standard installation for digitally showing the
features of the drill while operating and tramming. Running off of the CanBus system on the
drill it acts like an Electronic Depth Counter and Drill Monitoring System, picking up
information that sensors monitor in different parts of the machine such as the engine,
compressor, rotary head, tracks, and other components as required. It then presents this
through an interactive touch screen that the operator can then easily scroll through in order
to keep track of the condition of the drill, production performance, and maintenance
notifications.
Engine Start
Shows the status of the engine, the air pressure, oil, water and coolant levels.
To the left of the screen it constantly shows the feed pressure on the drill, the
rotation and the flushing pressure. It also shows the engine hours, water
temperature and rotation, air temperature and pressure in the compressor,
and hydraulic fluid temperature as well as the fuel levels
SANDVIK DR412i TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
CAB FEATURES
TRAMMING
With the use of the bulls-eye, you
can keep track of how the level the
drill is while it is tramming
LEVELING
This shows the position of the jacks
and with the bulls-eye you can see
if the machine is level or not
SANDVIK DR412i TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
MAST
So that you can see the angle that the
mast is drilling at, maximum of 30˚ with
a multi-pass option and maximum of
20˚ with a single-pass option, this also,
with the bulls-eye, show if the machine
remains level during the mast raising
and lowering process.
DRILLING
Similar to the old Electronic Depth
Counter, it shows the actual drill bit
position, how fast it is drilling, predicted
time to reach the required hole depth
etc… The icons along the bottom
represent various different statuses of
the drill bar and mast while drilling,
such as whether the support tongs are
in place, the dust hood is shut, whether
the drill bit is still in the hole, also
whether the “cruise control” drilling
is in place.

any problems that may occur that would require maintenance:
SANDVIK DR412i TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
ALARM LOG
There is also an alarm log, this stores the information from each alarm that the system
sounds when it registers an action or a problem:
CAB FEATURES
As a standard the DR412i has cameras mounted on the side of pipe loader and at the top of
mast so that the operator can monitor its use to view the pipe loading sequence from within
the cab.
SANDVIK DR412i TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
SAFETY FEATURES
The Sandvik DR412i has a number of safety interlocks in place in order to promote the safest
and most efficient drilling processes, and allowing for a longer machine life. These interlocks
can also be used as training examples on good operational skills, as every time an interlock
is activated, a message appears and is saved into the Graphical User Interface (GUI).
The following items have interlocks during various statuses of the drill:
TRAMMING IS DISABLED
• When the jacks are not fully retracted
• When the mast is not locked into place when it is vertical
• When the dust hood is not fully retracted
• When the dust curtain is not fully retracted
• When the main access stair way is lowered
• If the drill bit is still in the hole
FEED IS DISABLED
• When the loader is not fully stowed
• When top pipe centralizer is not fully stowed
• If break-out wrench is not fully swung out
MAST IS DISABLED
• When the drill pipe is in the hole
• When leveling function is engaged
• When the holding wrench is not retracted
• When the loader is not in the stow position
• When the pipe safety bar is not fully closed
The Sandvik DR412i comes with the option to have installed a “Drill Bit Changer”, this group
comes with an accessory crane with a bit engagement device mounted onto it which uses a
motor/actuator to add/remove the drill bits. And it uses a dual jaw wrench, which replaces the
existing holding wrench. It is used to clamp around the pipes, subs and bits for breaking joints.
The idea of this is that the operator is taken out of the danger zone on a drill table when a rotary
bit or hammer needs to be changed, using controls inside the cabin, the crane can swing in and
unscrew the drill bit, rack it, pick up a new one and screw it onto the drill pipe.

LUBRICATION SYSTEM
The Sandvik DR412i comes with various lubrication systems installed as a standard to keep
the machine running in pristine order
STANDARD EQUIPMENT
The DR412i has the Wiggins central service box. This consists of a box located on the right
hand side of the machine, near the front, which acts as a connection station for the service
trucks to fill up fuel, hydraulic oil, coolant, and crankcase oil. Likewise there is a box next to this
that has the appropriate connections that are used to drain the oil from the engine and
gearboxes when required.

SANDVIK DR412i TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT
The Sandvik water injection system is the other option available for dust control; this is good
with mines that have a lot of dust, and also a good option in coal applications so that the
flammability of the dust is reduced. The water spray system is located underneath the hood
and the injection is done as the dust is leaving the hole. It runs uses water supplied from a tank
that has a capacity of 2271 L (600 gallons). This water has a possible maximum flow capacity
of 34 L/min (9 gpm), at a maximum pressure of 3,102 kPa (450 psi), this means if the water
injection is running at a maximum capacity the whole time then it has enough water to last for
66 minutes.

OptiMine® Surface Drilling software has both drill plan management and detailed reporting capabilities. For a
connected fleet, drill plans can be transferred to the correct drill prior to drilling, whilst the actual real-time drilling data
on each completed hole, is also immediately available in the command center to be utilized in production control
systems. Optimine Surface drilling acts as an information gateway to the surface drills within the mine network and
offers different interfaces to integrate drill information easily into the mine operations and planning systems.
