  • SPT will showcase its advanced gyroscope, GyroScout™, along with its new application, NaviBlast, which optimizes the blasting process and provides detailed reports that record borehole deviation for ultra-fast and precise operations.
  • World Blasting Innovators brings together mining professionals and industry experts from around the globe to explore innovative solutions for drilling and blasting.

Malaga, October 2024. From October 7 to 9, 2024, Stockholm Precision Tools (SPT) will be present at the World Blasting Innovators in Porto, Portugal. At booth 27 in the Alfândega Congress Center, the SPT team will showcase its latest innovations for precision surveying and blasting operations in the mining sector.

As a leader in gyroscopic technology for the mining industry, SPT will present two of its most advanced solutions: the GyroScout™ and the Polestar Aligner™. These tools are designed to increase accuracy and efficiency in a wide range of mining applications.

The GyroScout™, compact and versatile, excels at continuously surveying blast holes without being affected by magnetic interference, making it particularly valuable in methods such as Sublevel Caving or Block Caving.

“With the implementation of Naviblast and GyroScout, SPT takes blast hole measurement precision to a new level, optimizing the blasting process and improving rock fragmentation. The detailed reports from this new development enable faster and more accurate operations, allowing our clients not only to reduce costs associated with handling large fragments but also to increase safety and operational efficiency in every mining project, significantly accelerating their production,” says Orlando Ramírez, CEO of SPT.

As rig misalignment is a major cause of blast hole deviation the Polestar Aligner™ provides accurate alignment of these rigs in both surface and underground operations, even at high latitudes, using advanced inertial navigation.

On October 8 at 11am, Eric Estrada, SPT’s Global Sales Marketing Manager, will present “Precision in Blast Hole: Revolutionising Efficiency and Safety”. During this session, he will detail how accurate how accurate borehole surveying directly impacts cost optimization and improves safety in blasting, mining, construction, and civil engineering operations.

World Blasting Innovators 2024 is the mining and blasting industry’s premier event, bringing together professionals from around the world to explore technological innovations in drilling and blasting and to discuss sustainable best practices for the sector, promoting collaboration and industry advancement.
