Specialty Expressions: FAGERSTA CUT

ExpressionsDomainDefinition
Fagersta cutMiningThis cut is drilled with handheld equipment. The empty hole is drilled in two steps, the first as an ordinary hole and the second as an enlargement of this pilot hole. The cut is something between a four-section cut and a double-spiral cut. The Fagersta cut is drilled with light equipment, which makes it suitable for use in mines and in small drifts, where drilling with heavy machines is not profitable. (references)
