China offers a diverse range of water well drilling rigs, each designed to meet specific drilling requirements and environmental conditions. The most common types include rotary drilling rigs, percussion drilling rigs, and down-the-hole (DTH) drilling rigs.
[pdf] In this video we assemble a DIY micro drill rig (tiny DC motor + drill bit + frame) and a submersible water pump, then test drilling a small “well” and pumping water through tubing. I explain the mechanism, torque limits, and 3 upgrades for better performance.
[pdf] DTH technique was used in well drilling exclusively to dig, accurate, vertical bores, and rotary drilling was used to turn the hole. The Directional DTH system, patented by Atlas Copco, was first used.
