Main Components

  • Diesel engine
  • Hydraulic top-head drive
  • On-board air compressor
  • Feed beam and chain system
  • Automatic rod handling system
  • Tracked undercarriage
  • Operator cabin
  • Centralized lubrication system

Working Principle

The Kaishan KG420S(H) operates on the down-the-hole (DTH) hammer drilling principle. A pneumatic hammer is attached to the bottom of the drill string, directly impacting the rock with high-frequency blows while the drill bit rotates slowly. The rig's on-board air compressor supplies high-pressure air to the hammer, which also serves to flush cuttings out of the hole. The hydraulic top-head drive provides rotation and feed force, advancing the drill string into the rock. As the hole deepens, additional rods are added via the automatic rod handling system. The operator controls all functions from the cabin, adjusting rotation speed, feed rate, and air volume to match rock conditions. This method ensures straight, accurate holes with high penetration rates and minimal deviation, making it ideal for surface mining and quarrying where productivity and precision are critical.
