Next‑Generation of Mining Tools
Avalon designs and manufactures high‑performance drilling tools engineered in Switzerland.
We got the solution you need
Field‑Tested. Metrics Don’t Lie.
In a controlled 400‑m production‑hole program, Avalon’s 152 mm DTH hammer achieved a 6.8 m / min average penetration rate comparable to leading OEM models while lasting 18 % longer before first rebuild.

The future of mining
Avalon tools are designed in Switzerland. Finite element analysis, rapid additive manufacturing and full‑scale stress rigs ensure every design pushes drill‑string life further.
Cost Leadership, Proven
Independent field trials show Avalon lowers consumable spend by up to 20 % versus legacy solutions. Optimised global supply chain translate into straight‑line savings for every tonne of ore.
Global Service, Local Speed
With spares hubs on four continents and certified rebuild partners near major mining corridors, Avalon minimises downtime. Critical components ship within 48 hours, keeping your rigs turning—even in the most remote sites.
Safety‑First Innovation
Avalon integrates vibration‑damping sleeves and fail‑safe shank locks that reduce operator exposure to shock loads and dropped‑tool incidents. Safer handling means fewer recordable injuries and smoother compliance with global mine‑safety standards.
What our clients say about our work
18 000 Metres, Zero Unplanned Change‑outs
Avalon hammers drilled 18 000 metres last quarter with zero unplanned change‑outs. Our crew’s shift efficiency jumped by 12 %—and that’s straight profit back to the bottom line.
One Metre per Minute Faster
Tool life is one thing, but the data dashboard sealed the deal. Within two weeks we’d optimised air pressure and bit load, adding nearly one metre per minute to our production holes.
From Days of Downtime to Hours
Avalon’s 48‑hour parts supply kept us online when our nearest port was 900 kilometres away. Downtime went from days to hours—an operational game‑changer in West Africa.
