The editor has learned that many friends now want to work in the rotary drilling rig industry because it is very hot and there is no need to worry about having no work to do. Moreover, the cost recovery of rotary drilling rigs is relatively fast, but there are also many factors that make many friends sigh and unable to invest. One important factor is its high operating cost, so is the operating cost of rotary excavators really high?

Moreover, the cost recovery of rotary drilling rigs is relatively fast, but there are also many factors that make many friends sigh and unable to invest. One important factor is its high operating cost, so is the operating cost of rotary excavators really high?
For some large rotary drilling rigs, it is generally necessary to equip at least two operators, and a good operator's salary can range from seven to eight thousand or even tens of thousands. In addition, the daily fuel consumption should not be less than 400L. In addition, regular maintenance of the rotary drilling rig is also required, and the maintenance cost of the rotary drilling rig is quite high. If the drill rod is damaged due to the strong formation or the low level of the driver, the cost of one drill rod is staggering. For those who have just started working in the rotary drilling rig industry, tens of thousands of drill rods are still very difficult to deal with. The issue of shipping costs is different from other automotive engineering machinery. Rotary drilling rigs are heavy, have many loads, and are difficult to load and unload. Far away, we have to consider the shipping cost of the rotary drilling rig again.
However, the operating costs of small rotary drilling rigs produced and developed are much lower than those of large rotary drilling rigs. Small rotary drilling rigs can generally be operated by one person, and they are very energy-saving and fuel-efficient. Their maintenance and repair costs are also relatively low. Therefore, for friends who want to invest in the rotary drilling rig industry but lack funds, they may choose small rotary drilling rigs, especially in the current new rural construction. Many tasks that cannot be done by large rotary drilling rigs can be solved by rotary drilling rigs Good business opportunity!

The small and medium-sized rotary drilling rigs produced by crawling companies have four major advantages: durability, miniaturization, customization, and internationalization, which have become a solid guarantee for efficiently promoting various construction projects. The power unit (power head) of the rotary drilling rig developed and manufactured by the company, with 20 years of research and development technology accumulation, has made the "Gaoyou Power Head" a leader in the industry. It is a long-term strategic cooperation supplier for engineering machinery companies such as XCMG Group, Zoomlion Heavy Industry, Yutong Heavy Industry, Yuchai Heavy Industry, Liugong, CRRC, and Hengtian 95. The company independently develops and manufactures modular components for rotary drilling machines, including positive and negative circulation drilling machines, excavator to rotary drilling machines, 3-ton meter to 50 ton meter series rotary drilling machine power heads, horizontal directional drilling power heads, lifters, upper and lower frames, chassis, etc., which can meet the diversified needs of customers.
