Introduction to the advantages of PDC core bit

 Introduction to the advantages of PDC core bit

With the continuous development of science and technology, every company will choose products with good wear resistance, for example, the drill bit for cutting edge is called PDC core bit. The drill bit is an integrated drill bit, the whole drill bit has no moving parts, the structure is relatively simple, and it has high strength, high wear resistance and impact resistance. It is one of the three new drilling technologies in the world in the 1980s. Field use proves that when drilling in soft-medium-hard formations, the diamond bit has the advantages of high speed, large footage, long life, stable work, fewer downhole accidents, and good well quality. Diamond drill bits are not only used for a long time, but can also be reused. The use effect of the returned diamond drill bit is similar to the factory diamond bit, which can save a lot of drilling costs.

The rock breaking effect of PDC core bit is completed by diamond particles. To know the rock breaking effect of the drill bit, it is necessary to understand the rock breaking effect of single diamond. In hard stratum, single diamond particles put the rock under high stress state (about 4200-5700MPa, some data prove that it can reach 6300MPa) under the action of weight-on-bit, causing the rock to undergo lithological transformation from brittleness to plasticity. Single diamonds penetrate into the formation and cut and break the rock under the action of torque. The cutting depth is basically equal to the penetration depth of diamond particles. This process is like "ploughing the ground" so it is called the plough cutting action of the diamond bit.

How to use water well drilling rig lubricant correctly

  The use of coolant for water well drilling rigs has some similarities to the use of coolant for general drilling, but also has some unique considerations due to the special working environment and requirements of water well drilling rigs. The coolant used in water well drilling rigs is often referred to as “drilling fluid” or “mud”, and its function is not only cooling, but also includes carrying rock cuttings, stabilizing the wall of the well, and balancing formation pressure. The following is a detailed explanation of how to use water well drilling rig coolant correctly: 1. Main functions of drilling fluid: Cooling and lubricating the drill bit:  Reducing the temperature of the drill bit and drill pipe, reducing wear and prolonging service life. Carrying rock cuttings:  Bringing the rock cuttings generated during the drilling process from the bottom of the well to the surface, preventing the accumulation of rock cuttings from clogging the drill bit and the bottom of t...

What are the Basic Maintenance Methods for Water Well Drilling Rigs

  Cleaning: After every day's operation, clean the mud, oil, and other debris on the rig in time to keep the rig clean. Checking lubrication: regularly check  the lubrication points to ensure that the lubricant is sufficient and the grease is clean. Fasteners check: you can check whether the bolts and nuts of each part are loose and tighten them in time. Hydraulic system checks: you can check whether the hydraulic oil level is normal, whether there is no leakage phenomenon, and whether the hydraulic oil is clean. Lubrication system maintenance: regular replacement of lubricating oil, grease, cleaning oil filter, and oil tank. Hydraulic system maintenance: regular replacement of hydraulic oil, cleaning hydraulic filter. Cooling system maintenance: clean the radiator, and check the coolant level. Transmission system maintenance: check the tightness of the transmission belt, and replace the worn transmission belt. Electrical system maintenance: check whether the line is firm...

How to adjust the slurry pump impeller clearance

  Adjust the core principle of the slurry pump impeller: adjust the clearance between the impeller and the front guard plate (or front and rear sheath) to ensure the efficiency and life of the pump. Too large a gap is low efficiency, too small a gap is easy to wear. 1. vertical slurry pump: Loosen the compression bolt of the bearing assembly. Unscrew the adjusting bolt to move the bearing assembly forward while manually rotating the shaft in the direction of pump rotation until the impeller slightly touches the front guard plate. (Rubber-lined pump) Measure the clearance between the impeller and the front and rear sheaths separately, and take half of the distance moved by the bearing assembly as the clearance value. Use the adjusting bolt to precisely adjust the clearance to the specified value (metal liner 0.5-1mm, rubber liner front and rear sheath clearance is equal). Tighten the compression bolt of the bearing assembly. 2. Center-open slurry pump: Factory has been adjusted, gen...
