Dyno Nobel introduces Ranger, DigiShot’s new electronic initiation system

Dyno Nobel, the global leader in commercial explosives, continues to expand its initiation systems offerings with the next generation of blasting systems explicitly created for quarries, civil, and pipelines. DigiShot® powered by the new Ranger electronic initiation system. Traditionally, detonators are assigned a hole location only, and delay times are set at the time of blasting. The process is often time-consuming and may introduce user errors. The flexible tagging option allows the user to assign both hole location and delay time at the hole or assign delay times at any time the user prefers. This feature enables the user to efficiently adjust the process to their needs, speeding up the tagging process. The user can also change the delay with the press of a button. The Ranger offers a “tag by plan” option, which provides a predesigned pattern; the user only needs to align the correct hole with the valid hole number on the tagger. This simple-to-use feature significantly reduces the potential for user error.
