  • Air compressor (for DTH)
  • Mud pump (for rotary)

Working Principle

The Kaishan KW360 crawler water well drilling rig operates on a combination of mechanical rotation and either DTH (down-the-hole) hammer or mud rotary drilling. In DTH mode, compressed air is delivered through the drill pipe to a hammer at the bottom of the hole, which rapidly strikes the bit to fracture rock. The rotary head simultaneously rotates the drill string, ensuring even bit wear and a straight hole. Cuttings are flushed to the surface by the air stream. In mud rotary mode, drilling fluid is pumped down the drill pipe to cool the bit, stabilize the borehole, and carry cuttings to the surface. The rig's hydraulic system controls feed force, rotation speed, and pull-back, allowing the operator to adapt to changing formations. The crawler undercarriage provides mobility, while the outriggers stabilize the rig during drilling. This dual-method capability makes the KW360 versatile and efficient for water well drilling in various geological conditions.
