By replacing the bucket, the excavator can be converted into a hydraulic rock drill, DTH drill, auger drill, or hydraulic splitter, enabling multi-functional use of the excavator. The term "excavator drill conversion" means using the excavator's built-in breaker hydraulic system and connecting it to a specialized hydraulic switching device without affecting the excavator's original functions.
Application areas: Earthworks, demolition, road and bridge construction, tunnel excavation, excavation, and water conservancy projects.
Mining sector: Stone quarrying (marble, granite, limestone, etc.), metal mining, coal mining, etc.
Advantages of Excavator Drill Conversion:
1. Multiple hydraulic rock drills available for selection, including different brands and models.
2. Convenient and fast loading and unloading at the job site.
3. Fast rock drilling speed, reaching up to 1 meter per minute on rocks with a hardness of 7.6.
4. Easy operation.
5. Low drilling cost, with the purchase price being 1/10 of that of a rock drill platform, and efficiency higher than pneumatic rock drills.
6. Dust removal system available to improve working environment.
7. Wireless remote control operation, ensuring operator safety during tunnel excavation.
8. 360-degree rotating mechanism, suitable for different drilling angle requirements.
The configuration can be selected based on hole diameter, drilling depth, and working environment. Options include hydraulic rock drills, DTH drills, auger drills, etc. Currently, only a small portion of drills are distributed in regions such as Chongqing, Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan. The types of drills are as follows:
- Pneumatic DTH drills with support frames are priced around 100,000 yuan.
- Handheld pneumatic rock drills cost 30,000-50,000 yuan per set.
- Split small crawler-mounted DTH drills wholesale price is around 170,000 yuan.
Most of the drills in various cities are split-type impact drills (i.e., separate DTH drills and air compressors), which have low efficiency, difficult transportation, and high danger during operation, especially in mountainous areas.
By utilizing the excavator’s inherent mobility with its crawling and rotation capabilities, the excavator drill conversion can perform in challenging environments, offering better adaptability than traditional equipment.
Since 2004, with the country’s active fiscal policy and prudent monetary policy, and the continuous growth and improvement of macroeconomic control, fixed asset investment has generally increased. Supported by national policies and driven by the market, along with the introduction of foreign technology, enterprises have reached new concepts and fields. This has facilitated the gradual absorption and resolution of hydraulic rock drilling challenges through collaboration and research.
