Horizontal Directional Drilling Rig Working Principle:
This horizontal directional drilling equipment follows three core construction steps to complete non-excavation pipeline laying. First, the drill bit with a guiding system drills a pilot hole along the designed path through the formation. Second, according to the outer diameter of the target pipeline, the hole is reamed to the required diameter with a reamer. Finally, the pipeline to be laid is connected to the drill rod and pulled back to the starting point through the reamed hole, completing the entire pipeline installation without damaging the ground surface.
Horizontal Directional Drilling Rig Application Fields:
1. Municipal Public Pipeline Construction: Suitable for laying communication, power, water supply, drainage and gas pipelines in urban areas, avoiding road excavation, traffic interruption and damage to municipal facilities, and adapting to the construction needs of dense urban built-up areas.
2. Long-Distance Oil & Gas Pipeline Engineering: Designed for long-distance transportation pipelines of crude oil, finished oil and natural gas in field scenarios, it can adapt to long-distance continuous construction and meet the needs of large-diameter pipeline laying.
3. Barrier Crossing Construction: Ideal for pipeline construction that needs to cross rivers, lakes, expressways, railways and other areas that cannot be excavated, realizing safe and efficient crossing construction without affecting the normal operation of the existing facilities.
4. Ecologically Sensitive Area Construction: Suitable for pipeline laying in scenic spots, ecological protection areas and farmland, minimizing damage to vegetation, soil and ecological environment, and meeting the environmental protection requirements of construction in sensitive areas.
5 Features of the YG HDD Rig Machine:
1. Dual Drive Mode for Customized Construction Needs: We offer two optional push and pull drive systems: cylinder drive and motor drive, matching different operation habits and construction scenarios. This flexible configuration allows you to choose the most suitable drive mode according to your project needs, avoiding the limitation of single-mode equipment.
2. High-Torque Adjustable Powerhead for Complex Formations: Each model is equipped with a high-performance powerhead, with maximum torque ranging from 5000N·n to 12000N·n, and stepless speed regulation from 0 to 180r/min. It delivers stable and continuous power even in hard soil and soft rock formations, effectively reducing the risk of drill sticking and improving construction efficiency. This is the core performance advantage of this HDD rig machine.
3. Gradient Capacity Configuration for All Project Scales: YG 5 standard models cover maximum feed/pull force from 160KN to 320KN, and maximum reaming diameter from 600mm to 800mm. Whether it is a small municipal pipeline maintenance project or a large-scale cross-river long-distance crossing project, you can find a perfectly matched model, avoiding unnecessary investment in excess capacity.
4. Matched Mud System for Stable Construction: The whole series is equipped with a high-performance mud system, with maximum mud flow up to 320L/min and mud pressure up to 100bar. It ensures smooth slag discharge during drilling, maintains a stable hole wall, greatly reduces the risk of hole collapse, and improves the qualified rate of one-time hole formation.
5. Compact Structure for Flexible Site Deployment: The optimized fuselage design, with the smallest size of 570018202400mm and a weight starting from 6700kg, is easy to transport and transfer between sites. It can be flexibly deployed in narrow urban construction sites where large equipment cannot enter, expanding your applicable construction scenarios.
