Working Principle
The Kaishan L2.5 DTH hammer operates on the principle of down-the-hole percussion. Compressed air is fed through the drill pipe to the hammer, where it drives a piston in a reciprocating motion. The piston strikes the shank of the drill bit, generating high-frequency impact energy that fractures the rock. Simultaneously, the air flows through the bit’s flushing holes to remove cuttings from the hole bottom and cool the bit. The hammer’s valve or valveless design controls the air distribution, ensuring efficient energy transfer and reliable operation. The rotation of the drill string indexes the bit, allowing new rock surfaces to be fractured with each impact. This combination of impact and rotation enables efficient drilling in hard rock formations. The L2.5 is designed to match air pressure and volume requirements, typically operating at 0.7–1.0 MPa, to deliver optimal penetration rates while minimizing air consumption. Its simple yet robust construction ensures dependable performance in demanding drilling conditions.
