  • Product Detail Introduction

Core Engineering Features & Performance Advantages

Cummins 298 kW Heavy Powertrain & 24 Bar Air End

Combines heavy DTH mining percussion drilling with an onboard high-capacity two-stage screw compressor (22 m³/min @ 24 bar / 348 psi) on a single crawler platform. Driven by a 298 kW (400 HP) Cummins QSZ13-C400 diesel engine via dual-terminal outputs driving variable hydraulic systems, eliminating trailing air hoses and reducing mine fuel burn by up to 25%.

Large 140–190 mm Holes & Aluminum Propulsion Beam

Features a high-strength aluminum alloy feed beam delivering 65 kN maximum feed force and 4,100 N·m torque for 4″/5″/6″ DTH hammers. The automated carousel (8+1 or 6+1 for Φ89/Φ102 mm rods), floating joint thread protection, and digital angle/depth display allow precision single-operator drilling down to 36 meters.

FOPS/ROPS Safety Cabin & 24.8-Ton Mining Chassis

Built on a reinforced 24,800 kg crawler undercarriage with 140 kN heavy traction, 430 mm ground clearance, and ±10° frame leveling for 25° gradeability. Features a fully enclosed, climate-controlled operator cab certified to international FOPS & ROPS safety standards with dry cyclonic laminar flow dust extraction.

Operational Benefits of the KT15C Integrated Rig

  • Massive 22 m³/min @ 24 Bar Flushing Power: The high-capacity two-stage screw airend delivers 22 m³/min airflow at 24 bar (348 psi), ensuring rapid rock cuttings evacuation and superior penetration rates (ROP) down to 36 meters in large 190 mm boreholes.
  • Heavy-Duty Feed Thrust (65 kN): Driven by a high-strength aluminum alloy feed beam with heavy roller chain feed, generating 65,000 N propelling force and 4,100 N·m torque to conquer ultra-hard rock formations (f=6–20) with 6-inch DTH hammers.
  • Flagship Cummins QSZ13 298 kW Architecture: Driven by a 13-liter Cummins diesel engine (298 kW / 400 HP) paired with a load-sensing variable hydraulic system, minimizing energy dissipation and delivering exceptional operational reliability in large open-pit mines.

Primary Industrial Applications

  • Extra-Large Open-Pit Mines: High-yield production blast-hole drilling (⌀140–190 mm) in iron ore, copper, gold, bauxite, and coal mine benches.
  • High-Capacity Commercial Quarries: Primary bench fragmentation blasting in large-scale limestone and granite aggregate operations.
  • Mega Civil Engineering & Hydropower: Deep foundation rock excavation, spillway blasting, and high-altitude slope stabilization projects.
  • Eco-Compliant Green Mining: Features dual dry (hydraulic cyclonic laminar flow) or optional wet dust suppression systems to achieve zero-emission clean drilling collars.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What are the main performance advantages of the KT15C compared to the KT12?

A: The KT15C is Kaishan's heavy mining flagship model, upgrading engine displacement to a 13-liter Cummins QSZ13 (298 kW vs. 264 kW), boosting screw compressor delivery to 22 m³/min @ 24 bar (vs. 20 m³/min @ 22 bar), expanding borehole diameter up to 190 mm (vs. 152 mm), increasing maximum feed thrust to 65 kN (vs. 40 kN), and featuring automated handling for larger Φ89/Φ102 mm drill pipes up to 5 meters in length.

Q: Does the KT15C provide digital real-time borehole guidance?

A: Yes. The KT15C comes equipped with an integrated real-time digital drilling display system inside the cabin that monitors drilling angle and borehole depth with high accuracy, ensuring precise explosive charging and optimal rock fragmentation.

Q: Does the KT15C require any auxiliary air compressor or separate power generator?

A: No. The KT15C is completely self-contained. The 298 kW Cummins engine drives both the heavy variable hydraulic system and the onboard 24-bar screw compressor, eliminating external tow-behind compressors and trailing hoses completely.
