Flexibility for the future
Add flexibility to your drill rigs with Epiroc’s Rig Control System (RCS) Lite. Built on the RCS 5 platform that comes standard on the Pit Viper series, RCS Lite offers a number of safety and interlock features. It also provides a convenient foundation to add more functionality and technology options in the future without a major rebuild of the machine.
In addition, RCS Lite allows all Epiroc rotary drills to have the same onboard display and system for consistent operator training and service. It’s a modular solution that delivers efficiency now, along with the opportunity to enhance your equipment down the road to achieve your automation goals.
