Our machines are built to customer requirements and specifications and we also offer our standard series being the models “ROCKDRILL 5000”, “ROCKDRILL 3000”, “ROCKDRILL 1000” and the “ROCKDRILL 100”.

This Quality Management System is designed to meet the requirements of the standard ISO 9001:2008. This system addresses the design, development, production and servicing of the company’s products as well as the quality procedures established.

The manual is supported by documented quality procedures established and maintained by each affected department. The quality procedures provide specifications, standard practises, test and inspection methods, and other operational and manufacturing requirements that affect the quality of SRD’s products, services and systems.

This manual is intended for internal use to guide the company’s employees through various requirements of the ISO standard that must be met and maintained in order to ensure customer satisfaction, continuous improvement and provide the necessary instructions to create an empowered work force.
