Working Principle

The Kaishan KS260 operates on a hydraulic top-drive drilling principle. A powerful diesel engine drives the hydraulic system, which powers the top-drive head to rotate the drill string. The rig can use either DTH (down-the-hole) hammer drilling or rotary drilling with air or mud. In DTH mode, compressed air is sent down the drill pipe to operate the hammer, which strikes the bit rapidly to break rock. The cuttings are flushed out by the air or mud return. In rotary mode, the top-drive rotates the bit while drilling fluid is pumped through the string to cool the bit and carry cuttings to the surface. The crawler chassis allows the rig to move and position accurately. The operator controls all functions from a centralized panel, ensuring precise and efficient drilling.
