Boltec ABR

Boltec with Auto Bolt Reload (ABR) rewrites the book on underground rock reinforcement. The combination of fully mechanized bolt reloading, pumpable resin system and Self Drilling Anchors takes operator safety, bolt installation quality and productivity to the next level. With the ABR function there is no need for the operator to exit the cabin and manually reload the feed carousel. The feed carousel is automatically reloaded from the bolt magazine located on the side of the machine, all while the operator stays safe inside the ROPS and FOPS certified cabin.

The door is now open for reliable autonomous and tele-remote functionality - the future is rock solid with Boltec ABR.
