Raise Borer

The Herrenknecht Raise Boring Rig (RBR) is designed for constructing shafts in rock up to 2,000 meters deep. It safely sinks a pilot drill vertically or at an angle before installing further drilling rods. Once the target depth is reached, the pilot drill is removed and a reamer attached to excavate the rock and extend the shaft diameter upwards from the bottom. The RBR offers flexible and efficient shaft construction for mining, hydropower, and other underground projects.

Subsequently, the pilot drill bit is removed in the cavern and the reamer is fixed to the drill
string. After completion of the assembly work, the rig pulls the reamer on the drill string
upwards. The rotation of the rods is transfered to the cutterhead, thus excavating the rock.
The muck falls down and can be easily removed. In this way, the entire shaft is extended
upwards from the bottom with the diameter of the reamer.

Wide range of applications


Mechanized shaft construction will become
increasingly important in a wide range of
applications thanks to this innovative technology.
The Raise Boring Rig creates shafts for the
transport of muck or ores, conveyor shafts, supply
shafts for energy, water and air, or headrace
shafts for hydropower plants - safely, precisely
and cost-effectively.
