Working Principle

The Kaishan KS311 underground drilling rig operates on a hydraulic drilling principle. A diesel engine powers the hydraulic system, which drives the boom, feed, and rock drill. The operator positions the boom and feed beam to the desired drilling location using hydraulic controls. The rock drill then applies impact, rotation, and feed force to the drill string, penetrating the rock. Flushing water or air removes cuttings from the hole. The rig's articulated chassis allows tramming between drilling sites, and the hydraulic system ensures smooth, precise movements for accurate hole alignment. This combination of mobility, power, and precision makes the KS311 effective for underground drilling tasks.
