Working Principle

The Kaishan KT6C operates on the principle of down-the-hole (DTH) drilling, where a pneumatic hammer is placed directly behind the drill bit. High-pressure air from an onboard compressor is delivered through the drill pipe to the hammer, causing the piston to strike the bit at high frequency. Simultaneously, the rotary head rotates the drill string, ensuring even bit wear and a round hole. The feed system applies optimal thrust to maintain efficient rock breakage. Cuttings are flushed out of the hole by the exhaust air and captured by the dust collection system. The crawler undercarriage enables precise positioning and stable drilling on uneven ground. This method is highly effective in hard rock formations, delivering straight holes and high penetration rates with lower fuel consumption compared to top hammer drilling.
