Hydraulic Core Drilling Rig Working Principle:

crawler core drill rig
crawler core drill rig

This series of equipment adopts a full hydraulic drive system, which transmits power through the hydraulic circuit to drive the rotation of the drill string and control the feeding and lifting actions of the drilling tower. During operation, the drill bit at the end of the drill string cuts the rock formation under the dual action of rotational torque and axial feeding force, while the matched hydraulic mud pump circulates drilling fluid to cool the drill bit, carry rock debris out of the borehole, and maintain borehole wall stability. The intact rock core is retained in the core barrel inside the drill string and is lifted to the surface through the lifting system for sampling and analysis. The crawler hydraulic core drilling rig supports adjustable drilling angles to adapt to different survey requirements, from vertical drilling to inclined drilling operations.

Key Features of YG Hydraulic Core Drilling Rig:

  1. Exceptionally intact core samples: We utilize the advanced double-tube wireline coring process combined with standard NTW drill rods. This technology significantly reduces core disturbance and breakage during extraction, producing highly complete core samples that provide accurate and reliable geological data.
  2. High torque and stable high-speed output: Equipped with premium Yuchai and Cummins engines, our rigs deliver powerful, consistent rotational force to penetrate various rock formations efficiently. The precision hydraulic system ensures smooth power transmission and stable operation across different drilling conditions.
  3. Full Hydraulic Precise Drive System: The YG hydraulic core drilling rig adopts full hydraulic transmission, with 21-28MPa rated pressure and 168-300L/min flow. It achieves stepless control of drilling torque and force, ensuring core integrity and adapting to diverse rock formations.
  4. Multi-Angle Stable Drilling Tower: Ground-contact tower design supports flexible angle adjustment: YGX-400 covers 0-90° full-angle drilling, other models support 45-90° adjustment, dispersing reaction force for stable high-load operation.
  5. High-Rigidity Anti-Overload Structure: Integrated high-rigidity frame with 12-30T lifting force and 6-15T feeding force, easily handling deep hole drilling and complex working conditions, adapting to long-term heavy-load field operation.

FAQ About Hydraulic Core Drilling Equipment

Q: What types of geological formations is this core drilling equipment suitable for?

A: Our YGX series rig adapts to most common formations in exploration and engineering projects, including clay, sandy soil, weathered rock, medium-hard sedimentary rock, and hard igneous rock like granite and basalt. With appropriate drill bit matching and drilling parameter adjustment, it can also handle fractured formations and complex interbedded layers.

Q: Can you customize a smaller model than the YGX-400 to meet your project needs?

A: Yes, we support custom development of smaller drilling rigs to meet your specific project requirements, including targeted adjustments to drilling depth, rig dimensions, weight, power configuration, and drilling angle range. We can also optimize the design for special working conditions to fully meet your actual construction scenarios.

Q: What core sampling method does this crawler hydraulic core drilling rig use?

A: YGX series rigs use diamond wireline coring. This method allows for rapid and efficient core recovery without lifting the entire drill string, significantly reducing tripping time and improving drilling efficiency, especially suitable for medium- and deep-hole operations. It effectively ensures the integrity of core samples, minimizing core breakage and formation disturbance, and achieves stable and high core recovery rates in hard rock, fractured formations, and deep-hole exploration projects. Furthermore, depending on your project needs, a single-action double-tube coring tool can be equipped for shallow-hole and special formation sampling.

Q: What supporting equipment and site conditions are required for on-site operation?

A: The rig features a fully integrated design; no large hoisting equipment is needed for on-site assembly. It only requires a flat, solid site that fits the rig’s body dimensions, plus matched drill pipes, core barrels, diamond drill bits, and diesel fuel for operation. It can be transported by standard flatbed trucks for long-distance transfer.
