Rock Drilling Equipment St Ives
During the 18th century Cornwall was the mining centre of the world, especially famous for tin production and base metals. At the time, the Cornish were considered the best hard rock miners in the world! Quite a title to earn. Even today, the Cornish have a wealth of knowledge when it comes to hard rock mining, built over decades of work.
Geever tin mine in Pendeen is just one example, being the largest preserved mining site in Britain.
Just over half an hour away from the museum erected at Pendeen Tin Mine you will find A.P Brown Drilling Supplies who bring the knowledge of Cornish mining into the modern age with current drilling technology and understanding. With their Rock Drilling Equipment, St Ives help keep miners, construction workers and the like up to date and put the tools in their hands to get their work done.
The attitude of the A.P Brown Drilling Supplies team comes through from just one quote on their website: “We know that our customers don’t have time to waste with products that aren’t going to work, which is why we only stock products that we believe can make a genuine difference.”
This purported attitude is proven true by a brief look at just one of the tools they supply:
The Holman Drill
The Holman Drill is internationally recognised as a quality piece of equipment.
Founded in 1801 “Holman Brothers Ltd.” was Cornwall’s largest manufacturer of industrial equipment. Interestingly, they even played a part in making the Polsten 20mm gun during World War 2. All their tools were tested in the “Holman Experimental Mine” for drilling speed and air consumption. This company was later succeeded by Compair, the name they retain today.
With this wealth of knowledge, spanning 221 years, you can see why A.P Brown chooses to use their equipment!
A.P Brown is also the South West’s suppliers of Chicago Pneumatic construction tools. They offer things like: Anti-Vibration rock drills, D handle jiggers and Darda hydraulic splitters.
Chicago Pneumatic are another company who have a good reputation in the business of tools. Founded in 1901 they have been making tools for over 120 years.
