Direct Overview: The Kaishan KW350 is an agile, crawler-mounted multifunctional water well and geothermal borehole drilling rig designed for drilling hole diameters of ⌀140 mm to 325 mm down to a maximum depth of 350 meters. Powered by a reliable 92 kW Yuchai turbocharged diesel engine delivering 8,500 N·m rotary torque and a 22-ton (220 kN) pullback force, it features an extended 6.6-meter stroke mast accommodating 6-meter drill pipes. It excels in dual-mode operation—supporting both high-pressure DTH air hammer drilling (17–34 bar) for hard rock and mud rotary pumping for soft soil—at rapid penetration rates of 15–35 m/h.

Borehole drilling for rural drinking water, agricultural irrigation, and ground-source geothermal heating frequently requires navigating unpredictable subsurfaces—ranging from loose topsoil, mud, and river gravel to solid granite and basalt bedrock (f=6–20). Contractors often face slow penetration and hole collapse when forced to use separate machines for soil and rock.
The Kaishan KW350 solves these geological challenges by serving as a true hybrid "Gas & Water" dual-purpose drilling rig. Its high-torque overhead power head features a large-diameter hollow spindle compatible with high-pressure air percussion, foam flushing, and heavy mud pump circulation. Drilling up to 10 times faster than traditional mechanical rotary table rigs, the KW350 provides outstanding fuel economy and rapid setup times on projects up to 350 meters.
Powered by a 92 kW Yuchai industrial engine paired with a parallel transmission and independent hydraulic oil pumps. Ensures balanced hydraulic power distribution, low fuel consumption, and easy worldwide spare-parts availability.
Two-stage telescopic carriage provides an extended 6.6m one-time advance stroke, allowing operators to directly use 6-meter drill pipes (as well as 1.5m, 2m, or 3m rods), cutting pipe-extension downtime by 50%. Dual-cylinder hoist delivers 22T lifting force.
Equipped with a rapid distribution valve providing 3-gear stepless speed adjustment (66–135 r/min) and 6,200–8,500 N·m torque. Large-spindle bore easily handles air DTH hammers, foam mist, and mud drilling without head modification.
Four heavy-duty hydraulic outriggers offer an extended 1.4-meter stroke. Enables instant chassis leveling on slopes and allows the machine to self-load and unload directly onto flatbed transport trailers without a crane.
The patented composite feed system dynamically adjusts weight-on-bit (WOB) as drilling depth deepens, minimizing steering resistance, preventing drill string deflection, and extending DTH hammer life.
Weighing only 8.6 tons with a 2,000 mm chassis width and 30° climbing capacity, the KW350 travels freely through narrow rural roads, residential courtyards, and tight farmland without damaging paved surfaces.

To achieve maximum penetration across 140–325 mm boreholes down to 350 meters, the KW350 connects directly with the following high-pressure auxiliary packages:
Kaishan LGCY-18/17 or LGCY-22/20 (17–20 bar, 18–22 m³/min) for fast DTH hammer penetration in hard bedrock.
BW-200 or BW-250 reciprocating mud pumps for borehole wall stabilization and drilling through loose sand, gravel, and clay.
A: The KW350 is rated for drilling depths up to 350 meters with hole diameters from 140 mm to 325 mm, powered by a 22-ton lifting force mast.
A: The KW350 is lighter and more compact (8.6T weight, 2.0m width) with a 350m depth rating, 22T lifting force, and 92 kW Yuchai engine, making it ideal for rural and tight-access residential drilling. The KW450 has a 450m depth rating, 25T lifting force, and 103 kW Weichai engine (9.4T weight) for deeper commercial projects.
A: Yes. Its two-stage telescopic carriage provides an advance stroke of 6.6 meters, allowing drillers to use 6m drill pipes directly, which reduces rod change frequency and accelerates overall borehole completion.
