International Export
Proud to ship our first OEM GC AutoSampler out of Australia.
Built, tested, and export-packed in Perth, this unit is part of our ongoing OEM supply of automated sampling hardware for harsh drilling environments. The focus is simple: reliability, repeatability, and integration into larger rig systems — not demos, not prototypes.
Exporting equipment like this isn’t just about the machine. It’s about documentation, compliance, packaging, and designing hardware that survives long transit and then works first time at site.
Good to see Australian-built automation heading offshore.

Another GC AutoSampler
The team is back from commissioning another GC AutoSampler for Ausdrill at a tier 1 miner.
This is a new GC model which is smaller, lighter and more reliable than the previous model.
First GC Drill Rig AutoSampler Delivered
Today AutoRun delivered its first production GC Drill Rig AutoSampler to our good customer Ausdrill at their Canningvale HQ. The next build begins and we have a strong order pipeline so register your interest today to automate your drill rig sample handling.
AutoRun Winner of the Work health safety invention of the year!
AutoRun is pleased to announce that we, in conjunction with our customers and technical development partners BHP, Ausdrill and Sitech (WA) were awarded the Invention of the Year at the 2021 Work Health and Safety Excellence Awards.
The award was for our work with BHP and Ausdrill on developing the Rock Commander Drill Rig Automated Sample Handling System. A major part of the development of this project was underpinned by advancing the RayTrac RFID sample tracking system into a sophisticated technological package capable of logging and sorting samples without human intervention. This award, coming after 11 years in the industry, has recognised AutoRun as a capable and respected drilling industry technology developer and supplier.
In addition to our project with BHP and Ausdrill, AutoRun has constructed two units of a second generation multi type RC Rig Auto-sampler which are lined up for field trials with Ausdrill in 2022. We also have three other exciting technical development projects underway with respected industry partners and news of these applications will come in due course after field trials are complete.
A big thank you to everyone, big or small, past or present, who have contributed to AutoRun’s success. We look forward to growing our meaningful and dynamic business relationships that continue to benefit and improve the mining industry.
