Rockmore’s research and development team includes some of the sharpest
minds in the rock drilling industry – a team of product designers,
metallurgical experts and tool specialists who are working to continuously
advance drilling technology for the entire industry.
All of Rockmore’s
innovations begin with the customer. We listen to what our cutomers are
saying – their problems, challenges and goals. Continuous customer
feedback is the keystone of all new product development. For over 60 years,
we have developed a uniquely streamlined, user-focused approach to serving
our broad-range of customers.
Each new innovation goes through an extensive and painstaking
testing process, both in the lab and in the field. Performance and
longevity are the watchwords. Once our new products are on the
market, we monitor their use closely. Our field representatives constantly
collect performance data, which
is then put to use in constant product improvement - and in the birth of
entirely new drilling solutions.

Our customers wanted faster penetration rates and longer carbide insert life.
Rockmore’s engineers developed the new
MultiPoint carbide insert design,
providing multiple strike points for more efficient crack propagation and greater
insert durability.
Drifting and tunneling operators wanted improved precision and efficiency.
Rockmore’s research and development team developed the new
XR32 thread design
that reduces vibration and wear in the drill string.
Our customers now enjoy higher precision collaring, straighter holes, and less wear.
And to improve the performance of our DTH hammers, Rockmore developed
SonicFlow technology
to lower turbulence, maximize airflow continuity, and increase hammer
performance.
