Working Principle
The Kaishan ZT5 operates on the down-the-hole (DTH) drilling principle. A DTH hammer is attached to the end of the drill string, directly behind the drill bit. High-pressure air from an external air compressor is fed through the drill pipe to the hammer. Inside the hammer, the air drives a piston that strikes the bit with high-frequency impacts. Simultaneously, the rig's rotary head turns the drill string slowly, indexing the bit for the next impact. The feed system applies optimal thrust to keep the bit in contact with the rock. The air also serves to flush cuttings out of the hole through the annulus. This combination of impact, rotation and flushing achieves rapid penetration in hard rock. The ZT5's hydraulic system controls boom movement, feed and rotation, while the diesel engine provides power for the hydraulic pumps and track travel. The operator controls all functions from a centralized panel, ensuring safe and efficient drilling.
