The goal. The enabler | Epiroc

The need for minerals will not only transform the world. It will also transform the mining industry. The transition to clean energy technologies places higher demands on mining companies to extract more minerals even more efficiently without compromising on safety or sustainability. An impossible equation? Not if you dare to think new.

We are constantly developing new intelligent technologies that drive this transformation. One example is our fully autonomous Pit Viper drill rigs series. This giant rig does all its work without an operator on board — an enabler for solar panels, wind power, electric cars and power grids.
