Cleaning Advantages: DTH Hammers Boost Cuttings Removal for Water Well Drilling Rigs

The water well drilling rig DTH hammer excels at clearing cuttings with high-pressure air.

 

  1. Fast removal: Speed reaches 2-3m/s, 5-8x faster than mud circulation. Great for permeable sandstone.
  2. Handles gravel: Blows out <50mm gravel in sandy cobble layers. A river project drilled 50m with only 30mm residue.
  3. Less well pollution: Avoids chemical leakage into aquifers. One test saw 15% higher water quality compliance.

 

Traditional mud drilling needs frequent cleaning. The water well drilling rig stays efficient with cleaner holes.
