A brief introduction to horizontal directional drilling rigs
Sep 11, 2023| Horizontal directional drilling rig is a kind of construction machinery for laying various underground public facilities without excavating the ground surface. Due to its excellent performance, it is widely used in the construction of pipelines such as electric power and oil. It is suitable for Construction can be carried out in most non-hard rock areas in my country on sandy soil, clay, pebbles and other terrain conditions. Let’s learn how to operate a horizontal directional drilling rig.
The working environment temperature of the equipment is around -15°C~+45°C. The horizontal directional drilling technology is a new construction technology that combines the directional drilling technology of the petroleum industry with the traditional pipeline construction method. It has the construction speed With the advantages of high speed, high construction precision and low cost, horizontal directional drilling equipment has also achieved rapid development in more than ten years and has become an emerging industry in developed countries. At present, its development trend is towards large-scale and miniaturization, adapting to hard rock operations, self-contained anchoring system, automatic stacking and extraction of drill pipes, automatic lubrication of drill pipe connections, automatic operation functions such as electric shock protection systems, ultra-depth guidance monitoring, Feature development such as wide range of applications. This kind of equipment is generally suitable for steel pipes and PE pipes with a pipe diameter of φ300~φ1200mm, and the maximum laying length can reach 1500m. It is suitable for various soil conditions from soft soil to hard rock, and has broad application prospects.
