There is still a fair amount of confusion about Epiroc and there will be for some time as it wasn’t just a simple name change as Atlas Copco still exists.
Atlas Copco were a Swedish company who over a period of time bought other companies to add to their portfolio of equipment such as Krupp hydraulic hammers which gave them a range of medium to heavy breakers, Dynapac which gave them a range of compaction equipment and road machinery and Ingersoll Rand which gave them access into the drilling rig sector. When they bought Krupp for years afterwards everybody still called them Krupp hammers and not Atlas Copco and I expect the same now with everybody still calling the hydraulic hammers Atlas Copco instead of Epiroc
Within the last 5 years Atlas Copco have sold a lot of these acquisition’s, Dynapac was sold to Fayat Group which owns Bomag, the light equipment division was sold to Husqvarna and Atlas Copco decided to split the remaining business lines into industrial and mining and infrastructure. In a nutshell anything than produced air or required air to operate was held under the Atlas Copco brand and everything else was re-branded in a separate company they named Epiroc.
Epiroc therefore have the following types of equipment under their portfolio.
