🔧 Products We Offer:

1. Surface Set Diamond Core Bits

  • Ideal for: Soft to medium-hard formations

  • Features:

    • Single-layer industrial diamonds hand-set on the crown.

    • High drilling speed with minimal torque.

    • Especially effective in formations with little abrasiveness.


2. Impregnated Diamond Core Bits

  • Ideal for: Medium to very hard and abrasive formations

  • Features:

    • Multiple layers of synthetic diamonds evenly distributed in a metal matrix.

    • Self-sharpening as the matrix wears.

    • Suitable for drilling in varied and unpredictable geology.


3. Diamond Reaming Shells

  • Purpose: Maintains borehole size, reduces vibration, stabilizes bit

  • Features:

    • Natural or synthetic diamonds bonded to a steel body.

    • Designed to match the bit diameter exactly.

    • Extends bit life and improves hole straightness.


⚙️ Manufacturing Process of Core Drilling Bits

Our in-house manufacturing follows strict quality protocols to deliver consistent results:


🔍 1. Geology-Based Design Consultation

  • Work with clients to determine ground conditions (abrasiveness, hardness, structure).

  • Recommend optimal bit crown profile, matrix grade, and waterway style.


✍️ 2. CAD Modeling & Toolpath Simulation

  • Engineers develop detailed 3D CAD models for each bit.

  • Simulate cutting paths, fluid flow, and bit wear digitally before physical production.


⚖️ 3. Raw Material Selection

  • Source high-grade synthetic diamonds and powdered metal alloys.

  • Materials are graded by mesh size and hardness for consistency.


🌀 4. Powder Blending & Diamond Mixing

  • Precisely measured metal powder blends are mixed with diamond grit.

  • Mixing is performed in vacuum-sealed or inert gas environments to prevent contamination.


🔥 5. Cold Compaction (Preforming)

  • Powder-diamond mixture is pressed into a steel mold to form a pre-bit shape (preform).

  • Ensures even density and diamond dispersion.


♨️ 6. Hot Pressing / Sintering

  • Preforms are heated under high temperature (750–1,000°C) and pressure in a sintering press.

  • This bonds the matrix and diamonds into a single high-strength bit crown.


🧊 7. Controlled Cooling & Stress Relief

  • The bit crown is cooled slowly in a nitrogen atmosphere or inert chamber to prevent cracks.

  • Post-press heat treatments improve hardness and durability.


🛠️ 8. Surface Set Bit Diamond Embedding (Manual or Robotic)

  • For surface set bits, diamonds are manually positioned in patterns.

  • A high-silver content solder or brazing material is used to fix them in place.


🔩 9. Thread Machining & Body Fabrication

  • Bit bodies are CNC-machined to precise thread dimensions (BQ/NQ/HQ/PQ).

  • Runout and concentricity checks ensure perfect alignment with drill strings.


🔍 10. Precision Grinding & Waterway Finishing

  • Bit crown is ground to final shape and size.

  • Waterways are milled or EDM-cut for optimal flushing efficiency.


🧪 11. Rigorous Quality Control

  • Each bit undergoes:

    • Hardness testing (Rockwell)

    • Dimensional verification

    • Diamond exposure and distribution analysis

    • Balancing tests

    • Thread gauge inspections (GO/NO-GO standards)


🖌️ 12. Anti-Corrosion Coating & Final Packaging

  • Final bit is coated with protective anti-rust layers.

  • Laser engraved with size, matrix code, production batch, and part number.

  • Carefully packed for field-ready use.


🌍 Industries & Applications:

  • Mineral Exploration & Core Drilling

  • Geotechnical & Environmental Sampling

  • Mining Feasibility Studies

  • Infrastructure & Tunnel Boring Projects

  • Water Well and Hydrogeology Surveys


🔧 We Also Offer:

  • Custom bit development for challenging formations
