How Primadets Can Improve Vibration Control and Reduce Costs

The properties of all available modern blasting initiation techniques are reviewed. Primadets are nonelectric initiators, the nonelectric features of the system eliminates concern of premature initiation from static or stray currents. The loading techniques are simple and a minimum of training is required. There is no limitation in the number of necessary sequences in which the Primadet need be connected for initiation. This flexibility improves vibration control,and often reduces costs due to increased fragmentation.
