A brief history of the development of hydraulic rock drilling machinery and equipment

Now, the full hydraulic rock drilling rig has been widely used in infrastructure construction, highway, railway tunnel excavation and slope support, large and medium-sized open-air and underground mines, quarry, hydropower and water conservancy projects, national defense engineering construction and many other projects in the rock excavation, mineral resources mining, anchor bolt anchoring, and stone mining and other fields.



1.A brief history of the development of hydraulic rock drilling machinery and equipment

1.In the mid-1950s, rock drilling machinery manufacturers began to apply hydraulic technology to the control system of drilling vehicles.

2.By the early 1960 s, rock drilling rigs had gradually become the main equipment in mechanized rock drilling projects in industrialized countries.

3.In the early 1970 s, the invention of hydraulic rock drills led to the emergence of full hydraulic rock drilling rigs, which promoted the rock drilling industry technology to a new stage of development.

4.In the mid-1980s, nearly 30 rock drilling machinery manufacturers in the world introduced nearly 100 types of hydraulic rock drilling rigs and dozens of types of hydraulic rock drilling machines to the market.

Now, the full hydraulic rock drilling rig has been widely used in infrastructure construction, highway, railway tunnel excavation and slope support, large and medium-sized open-air and underground mines, quarry, hydropower and water conservancy projects, national defense engineering construction and many other projects in the rock excavation, mineral resources mining, anchor bolt anchoring, and stone mining and other fields. With the progress of drilling and blasting technology, rock drilling rig has shown its superiority in engineering construction, and its usage is also increasing.
