DRILLING OPTIMIZATION

Drilling Optimization

Drilling Process Optimization


To ensure optimal drilling productivity, DR Fab has developed a drilling optimization tool called "Uni-Drill". This electro-hydraulic tool allows the operator to reach drilling targets in a safe, yet productive environment. Several parameters can be optimized by this tool, such as net thrust which takes into account the diameter of the cylinder and the weight of the rods.

The Uni-Drill System


The Uni-Drill system can be installed on a mobile or stationary drill and offers useful production features, including data collection. It also allows you to create custom drill specification parameters. Finally, it allows you to automate the repetitive drilling steps.

This reliable system can also be adapted to conventional drilling rigs, thus simplifying maneuvers and allowing old hydraulic technology to be converted to state-of-the-art technology.

The 12-inch touch screen is easy to use and provides all the important drilling information. This tool can help less experienced drillers in their work, while allowing new avenues for improvement for more experienced drillers.

Advantages of RPU

RPU Rod Positioner


The DR rod positioner RPU (working brand) is easy and quick to use and, most importantly, highly versatile. It can easily adapt to all types of drills and allows the user to place the rods quickly and safely. The jaw has a double hydraulic motor allowing precise advancement of the rod while ensuring each rod properly clamps on to the previous one. These characteristics make the RPU one of the industry's most versatile positioners.
