Business Solution Overview
The RLD-280 is a mechanical top-drive drilling rig built for dual-purpose drilling with either mud pump or air compressor support. In soft formations it can work with mud drilling, while in harder layers it can use air drilling, making it suitable for a wide range of ground conditions.
This rig is designed for applications including core drilling, geological exploration, deep water well drilling in solid areas and construction drilling. Its mechanical transmission top drive draws rotation power from the gearbox, and the variable speed range supports different drilling methods including air drilling, core exploration drilling and wire line drilling.
Mounted on a rubber track crawler chassis, the unit is intended for easier movement on site and practical relocation between work areas. The design also focuses on straightforward maintenance and lower operating cost, making it a practical solution for contractors and drilling teams handling varied drilling projects.
