The majority of the robots were D-class Dums, built without the ability to speak. On a sandminer, the Dums mostly kept to the engineering decks, away from the human crew, making them appear less common than was the case. Dums wore dark green tunics. [[D84]], a highly sophisticated Super-Voc class robot, was disguised as a Dum. | The majority of the robots were D-class Dums, built without the ability to speak.

More able were the V-class Voc robots, who had the power of speech. In the absence of humans, Vocs performed essential control deck duties on a sandminer and were capable of running the vehicle without supervision. They could give back massages to human crew.

Each sandminer's complement of robots included one SV-class Super-Voc, which had enhanced decision-making and organisational skills. The Super-Voc was effectively the leader of the robots, though still subservient to any of the authorised human crew. The Super-Voc wore a silver tunic. | Each sandminer's complement of robots included one SV-class Super-Voc, which had enhanced decision-making and organisational skills.
