How to Clean a Crawler Water Well Drilling Rig

 Crawler drilling rigs will be contaminated with a lot of dirt, oil and other impurities during the construction process, which will affect the performance of the equipment, shorten its service life, and even lead to malfunctions if not cleaned in time. Therefore, it is necessary to clean the crawler rig regularly.

Cleaning steps

Shutdown inspection:

Make sure the drilling rig is completely shut down and cut off the power supply.
Check the surrounding environment to ensure safety.

Cooling system cleaning:

Shut down the cooling water circulation system and drain the cooling water.
Check for coolant leaks and deal with them promptly.
Clean the cooler to remove scale and impurities.

Lubrication system cleanup:

Check each lubrication point and wipe it clean.
Replace the lubricating oil and make sure the lubricating oil is clean.
Check oil pipes and oil seals for leaks.

Hydraulic System Cleanup:

Check the hydraulic oil level and replenish it to the specified position.
Clean the hydraulic oil tank and replace the filter element.
Check the hydraulic pipeline for breakage and oil leakage.

Transmission system cleaning:

Remove mud and debris from the tracks.
Check the track tension and adjust it.
Check the chain and gears for wear and replace them in time.

Drilling tools cleaning:

Clean soil and rock chips from drill bit and drill pipe.
Check the drill bit for wear and replace it in time.

Machine body cleaning:

Use high-pressure water gun or cleaning agent to flush the body of the drilling rig to remove soil and oil.

Check the body for breakage and repair.

Cleaning Precautions

Safety first: During the cleaning process, always pay attention to safety and wear protective gloves and glasses.
Thorough cleaning: Clean the machine thoroughly and do not leave any dirt behind.
Focus on the hydraulic system, transmission system and other important parts to focus on cleaning.
Regular maintenance: Cleaning should be carried out regularly and records should be kept.

Cleaning frequency

The frequency of cleaning depends on the frequency of use of the rig and the working environment. Generally speaking, simple cleaning should be carried out at the end of each day's operation, and thorough cleaning should be carried out once a week.

Other Precautions

Winter Maintenance: After winter construction, the ice and snow on the rig should be cleaned in time to prevent freezing and damaging the parts.
Special environment: When working in saline or corrosive environment, cleaning frequency should be increased and anti-corrosive agent should be used.

Summarize.

Cleaning and maintenance of the crawler rig is an important part to ensure its normal operation and prolong its service life. Through regular and thorough cleaning, it can effectively reduce the occurrence of failures and improve work efficiency.

How to extend the life of drill pipe

  1. When using a new drill pipe, the drilling rig manufacturer should make sure that the wire fasteners on the front cut-off (protecting the shaft head) of the drill bit are also close to the new one. A ring-buckled rotating head can easily damage the wire fasteners of the new drill pipe, resulting in leaks, snaps, and loosening, and so on. 2. In the use of drill pipe for a drilling, should be first “grinding new buckle”, which consists of, first smeared with silk buckle oil, and then use the drill rig full torque, and then open the buckle, and then smeared with silk buckle oil and then open, and so on for three times, you can avoid the new wear and buckle. 3. As far as possible to maintain the drill pipe under the ground and on the ground in a straight line, so as to avoid part of the side of the wire buckle force and cause unwanted wear and tear, or even jump buckle, pay attention to the rig anchored to avoid the construction of the force to move is very important. 4. The buckle...

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...

Use and maintenance of drill bits

Use and maintenance of drill bits: 1. Choose a suitable drill bit:  Before using a drill bit, it is necessary to select the appropriate type and specification of drill bit based on drilling conditions and needs. 2. Installing the drill bit:  When installing the drill bit, it is necessary to ensure that the connection between the drill bit and the drill pipe is firm, and to correctly install the cutting teeth of the drill bit. 3. Maintain appropriate drilling speed and pressure during the drilling process:  Excessive drilling speed and pressure can lead to premature wear and damage of the drill bit, while too small can affect drilling efficiency. 4. Regular inspection and maintenance:  Regularly check the wear of the drill bit and replace severely worn components in a timely manner. At the same time, it is necessary to regularly clean and lubricate the drill bit to extend its service life. 5. Storage and preservation:  When storing and preserving drill bits, it i...
