PDC bits are polychrystalline diamond compact bits, they have two kinds of manufacturing process, matrix type and steel type. They are divided into coring type and non-coring type, suitable for soft to medium hard formation. PDC drill bits have various types and are made of high-quality anti-impact oil PDC cutters.
Operation
DTH hammers work by using compressed air to drive a piston back and forth, which in turn strikes a bit that is attached to the end of the drill string. This creates a hammering action that breaks up the rock and allows the drill to penetrate deeper into the ground.Benefits
- Efficient: Can drill holes quickly and efficiently, even in hard rock formations.
- Powerful: Can deliver a lot of impact energy, which allows them to break up rock that would be difficult or impossible to drill with other methods.
- Versatile: Can be used to drill holes in a variety of rock formations, including hard rock, granite, and soft rock.
- Durable: Are built to withstand the rigors of mining and quarrying operations.
Applications
- Drilling blast holes for blasting operations
- Drilling exploratory holes for mineral exploration
- Drilling holes for water wells and geothermal wells
- Drilling holes for anchoring and foundation work

Applications of RC Drilling
RC drilling is a versatile drilling method that is used for a variety of applications, including:Exploration drilling
RC drilling is a fast and efficient way to collect rock samples for mineral exploration. The cuttings are blown up the drill pipe, so there is no need to pull the rods out of the hole as often as with other drilling methods. This makes RC drilling a good choice for deep exploration drilling.Grade control drilling
RC drilling is also used for grade control drilling, which is used to determine the grade of ore in a deposit. This information is important for planning mining operations.Blast hole drilling
RC drilling can also be used for blast hole drilling, which is the process of drilling holes in rock that will be blasted to break up the rock for mining.Water well drilling and geothermal well drilling
RC drilling can also be used for water well drilling and geothermal well drilling. - PDC bits are polychrystalline diamond compact bits, they have two kinds of manufacturing process, matrix type and steel type.

- The optimum range of hole size for blast hole drilling with DTH is 90 mm to 254 mm (3 ½”–10″). Smaller blast holes are generally drilled using tophammer, and larger holes generally use rotary machines.In other applications, like foundation drilling, DTH hammers can be used with single bit in hole sizes up to . 750 mm (30″). With multiple hammer units CD (Cluster drills) drill holes up to 70″ or 1778 mm.As a rule of thumb, the smallest hole diameter a DTH hammer can drill is its nominal size. A 4 inch hammer will drill a 4 inch (102 mm) hole. The limiting factor is the outside diameter of the hammer, because, as hole diameter reduces, airflow is restricted. Maximum hole size for production drilling is the nominal hammer size plus 1 inch, so for a 4 inch hammer the maximum hole size is 5 inch (127–130 mm).Choosing the right hammer is largely determined by hole size and type of rock formation. Ideally, the size of the hammer should match the required hole dimension as closely as possible, leaving just enough space for cuttings to evacuate the hole.

DTH hammers work by using compressed air to drive a piston back and forth, which in turn strikes a bit that is attached to the end of the drill string. This creates a hammering action that breaks up the rock and allows the drill to penetrate deeper into the ground.Benefits
Valved drill bits are equipped with valves that help to control the flow of air and cuttings through the bit. This helps to improve the drilling efficiency and reduces the amount of wear and tear on the bit.- Improved drilling efficiency: The valves help to control the flow of air and cuttings, which improves the drilling efficiency and reduces the amount of time it takes to drill a hole.
- Reduced wear and tear: The valves also help to protect the bit from wear and tear, which extends the life of the bit.
- Increased safety: Valved drill bits are designed to be more stable than other types of DTH drill bits, which can help to reduce the risk of accidents.
