Is drilling and rock breaking expensive?
In mining and tunnel construction, traditional Drilling Rigs are bulky and difficult to transfer, and the cost of purchasing them separately is high; when encountering hard rock formations, they are inefficient and easy to wear the drill bit. Conventional rock breaking methods are not only time-consuming, but also increase construction costs. Many engineering teams complain: "Buying a Drilling Rig is too expensive, renting equipment is not cost-effective, and both the construction period and budget are dragged down!"
Our Excavator Converted Drilling Rigs (excavator converted drilling rigs) innovate the construction mode with "one machine for multiple uses + efficient rock breaking"! Through modular conversion kits, idle excavators can be quickly transformed into multi-functional drilling rigs. With Ultra-high pressure Rock Splitters, it can easily cope with hard rock formations such as granite and basalt. Compared with traditional equipment, the conversion efficiency of the converted drilling rig is increased by 5 times, and the construction cost is reduced by 40%. In a mining project, the use of Mining Rock Splitters increased the daily drilling efficiency by 3 times and shortened the construction period by nearly half.
Three core advantages
① Rapid modification system: standardized interface design, complete the functional conversion from excavator to drilling rig within 2 hours;
② Ultra-high pressure rock breaking technology: equipped with 300MPa splitter, splitting force up to 500 tons, easily breaking hard rocks;
③ Intelligent monitoring platform: real-time monitoring of drilling depth and pressure data, automatic warning of equipment abnormalities.
Construction and maintenance tips
1. Three inspections per day: check the wear of drill pipe, sealing of hydraulic pipeline and connecting bolts of splitter before operation;
2. Deep maintenance: replace hydraulic oil filter every 50 hours, and use special lubricant to maintain rotary joint;
3. Rock formation adaptation: when encountering rocks of different hardness, the drilling speed and splitting pressure parameters are adjusted through the intelligent system.
