CR600P

⛏️ CR600P 600m Portable Split-type Full Hydraulic Core Drill Rig

The CR600P is a portable split-type full hydraulic core drill rig designed for mountainous, forested, and roadless mining areas. The equipment splits the power, hydraulic, operation, mud, and drilling mechanisms into multiple independently transportable functional units. While maintaining 600m-class core drilling capability, it reduces the transport difficulty of individual modules, making it suitable for exploration boreholes that are difficult for large track-mounted integrated rigs to access.

🏔️ Mountainous and Roadless Environments Are the Core Application Scenario

Geological exploration boreholes are often located on slopes, valleys, forested areas, and temporary platforms, many of which lack complete access roads. The CR600P adopts a modular split structure, allowing batch transport to the borehole site based on field conditions before assembly. For projects that require reducing road construction and minimizing reliance on large vehicles, this structure is more flexible than integrated rigs.

⏱️ Rapid Assembly and Disassembly Facilitates Continuous Multi-hole Operations

The rig structure is optimized for assembly, disassembly, and on-site transport. The documentation states that assembly can be completed in as little as approximately 30 minutes. Actual time may vary depending on transport distance, site conditions, crew proficiency, and auxiliary equipment, but for projects with dispersed boreholes along exploration lines, rapid assembly and disassembly can significantly reduce auxiliary work during hole changes.

🎯 600m-class Capability Suitable for Reconnaissance, Early Detailed Surveys, and Ore Body Verification

The CR600P has reference drilling depths of 760 m for BQ, 600 m for NQ, and 280 m for HQ. It is more suitable for projects that have completed surface surveys, geophysical and geochemical anomaly delineation, or shallow hole verification, and now require continuous core data for further evaluation, such as mineralized zone confirmation, ore body boundary control, and medium-depth resource assessment.

🥇 Drilling for Gold Veins and Structural Alteration Zones

Quartz vein-type gold deposits, shear zone-type gold deposits, and structural alteration-type gold deposits are often located in rugged mountainous areas. The rig supports drilling at angles from 45° to 90°, allowing selection of inclined or near-vertical holes based on ore body attitude, so that boreholes intersect mineralized zones at more favorable angles. The recovered core can be used for logging, sampling, structural analysis, and assessment of mineralization continuity.

🟠 Reconnaissance for Copper, Lead-Zinc, and Polymetallic Deposits

In exploration of copper, lead-zinc, and polymetallic deposits, continuous core provides a complete record of the relationships between host rock, alteration, fracture zones, and mineralized intervals. The CR600P is suitable for establishing multiple medium-depth boreholes in complex terrain, providing fundamental geological data for subsequent infill drilling and resource estimation.

⚙️ Full Hydraulic Control Facilitates Adjustment of Drilling Parameters Based on Rock Conditions

The power head has a maximum speed of 1200 rpm and maximum torque of 780 N·m, coupled with 55 kN feed force and 100 kN retraction force. Rotation speed and feed can be adjusted according to rock integrity, bit type, and core size. In intact hard rock, focus on bit cutting efficiency; in fractured formations, control feed and run length more carefully.

🧲 Hydraulic Chuck Combines Safety and Drill Rod Adaptability

The chuck has a maximum clamping force of 120 kN, a through-hole capacity of 54–127 mm, and uses hydraulic clamping. The documentation also emphasizes that the clamping system features a pressure-loss protection design to reduce the risk of accidental rod release. During make-up/break-out and drill rod handling, keep clamping surfaces clean and regularly check hydraulic pressure.

🧵 800m Rope Capacity Adapts to Wireline Core Drilling Operations

The winch system is equipped with a 6 mm wire rope, with a rope capacity of 800 m and a hoisting speed of 116 m/min. Wireline core drilling reduces auxiliary time for tripping the entire drill string each run, especially as hole depth increases. Daily inspections should include checking the wire rope for broken wires, crushing, wear, and spooling condition.

💧 Mud Circulation for Cooling, Cuttings Transport, and Borehole Wall Protection

The mud unit uses a plunger high-pressure pump with a flow rate of 90 L/min and pressure of 3 MPa. In intact formations, it primarily cools the bit and transports cuttings; in highly weathered, fractured, or loose intervals, adjust mud properties and use casing to maintain borehole stability and prevent collapse or severe loss.

⚡ Diesel and Electric Power Options for Project Configuration

The CR600P can be powered by diesel or electric. The diesel engine power requirement is ≥66 kW, or alternatively a combination of two 22 kW electric motors. Remote field projects typically prioritize independent power, while mining areas with stable power supply may choose electric options based on power availability, maintenance, and energy costs.

🌲 Suitable for Forest, Mountain, and Environmentally Sensitive Areas

The split design reduces the need for large vehicles to access borehole sites directly, but pre-construction assessment should still evaluate slope stability, rockfall risk, rainy-season road conditions, manual transport routes, and temporary platform load capacity. Mountain construction challenges extend beyond drilling itself; transport logistics and on-site safety are equally critical to project efficiency.

⚠️ Usage Precautions

Before mobilization, verify module weights and transport routes; after assembly, check quick couplings, hydraulic hoses, and structural connections; for inclined holes, ensure the mast and base are stable before drilling; during continuous drilling, regularly inspect hydraulic oil, filters, wire rope, chuck, and mud pump. Investigate any abnormal temperature rise, leaks, or changes in retraction resistance promptly.

Since actual geological conditions, downhole tools, borehole angles, and operating methods vary, final drilling efficiency, depth, and core recovery should be based on site-specific conditions.
