Recently, Hubei Xingda KY series full hydraulic tunnel drilling rigs have been deployed for construction at two mining projects simultaneously. One unit serves the underground roadway project of Gansu Xiaochangba Lead-Zinc Mining Co., Ltd., undertaking deep mineral exploration, gas drainage and surrounding rock anchoring drilling tasks underground. The other one works on the open-pit surface geological survey project of Jinxi Gold Mining in Sonid Right Banner, Inner Mongolia. The stable operation across underground and open-pit working conditions fully demonstrates the core strengths of KY tunnel drilling rigs: versatile adaptability, reliable performance and superior mobility.

1. Integrated & Simple Operation, Labor-saving and Safe Operation

The KY series adopts a centralized hydraulic control console. All movements including rotation, feeding, lifting and angle adjustment are integrated with intuitive operation logic. Operators can adjust drilling parameters conveniently with minimal physical fatigue during long shifts. Equipped with multiple pressure protection and overload pressure relief devices, the rig automatically releases pressure to buffer risks when encountering hard rock jamming or sudden stratum changes, preventing equipment damage and safety accidents. It ensures reliable operation both in confined underground tunnels and spacious open-pit mining areas.

2. Modular Split Structure for Easy Disassembly, Assembly and Transportation

Underground mines feature narrow, winding roadways, while open-pit mines are scattered with frequent site transfers, raising high demands on mobility. Designed with excellent split modular structure, the rig can be disassembled into several lightweight components: main machine, hydraulic power station and drill frame. No large hoisting machinery is required; crews can rapidly take apart, transport and reassemble the rig manually with simple tools. Whether transported underground via mining carts or transferred between multiple open-pit work points, it greatly cuts relocation time and accelerates overall construction progress.

3. Compact Layout & Omni-directional Adjustable Drilling Angle

Boasting a compact body with small footprint, the rig perfectly fits limited underground roadway space. The drill frame supports stepless angle adjustment, enabling horizontal, inclined, upward and downward drilling at any angle. Underground applications include core sampling, drainage pressure relief, gas drainage and anchor bolt drilling for roadway support. On open-pit ground, it is applicable to mineral reconnaissance sampling, stratum detection and slope stabilization anchoring holes. One machine covers both underground tunnel drilling and surface geological construction with outstanding universality.

4. Stable Durability Verified by Harsh On-site Working Conditions

The underground environment of Gansu Xiaochangba Lead-Zinc Mine is humid, dusty and confined with fractured complex rock formations. The rig runs continuously stably with steady hydraulic system and uniform penetration speed to complete deep roadway boreholes. The Inner Mongolia gold mine features windy open terrain and interbedded hard-soft strata; the equipment maintains sound performance under all-weather outdoor operation with qualified core recovery rate. Two totally different geological environments fully prove the robust mechanical structure and dependable hydraulic system of the KY series.

Benefiting from labor-saving safe operation, convenient transportation, compact structure, multi-angle drilling capability and strong condition adaptability, Xingda KY tunnel drilling rigs are widely used in underground exploration, gas control, slope reinforcement and surface geological survey for gold mines, lead-zinc mines, coal mines and various non-ferrous metal mines. Moving forward, Hubei Xingda will continuously upgrade tunnel drilling equipment tailored to diverse mining geological conditions, providing solid and reliable drilling machinery for domestic and global mineral resource exploration and safe underground mining.
