CABLE

PERCUSSIVE 

DRILLING

Danbars cable percussion & cable percussive drilling is one of the most commonly used methods for all kinds of geo-technical sites and ground investigations.

CABLE PERCUSSIVE DRILLING

In the UK, depending on access limitations for our rigs and ground conditions, we can create boreholes up to 60m in depth.

The Danbar Drilling team are able to deliver extremely reliable and effective cable percussive drilling techniques which offer high levels of cost-efficiency as well as a range of technical benefits.

Thanks to our experience and versatile rigs, this method of drilling is ideal for use alone or as part of a wider drilling strategy on-site.

Whatever kind of borehole you are looking to create on-site, our industry-leading percussion drilling technology remains the perfect choice.

 

HOW DOES PERCUSSIVE DRILLING WORK?

Cable percussion drilling utilises a two-tonne winch, driven by a high-performing diesel engine.

Instances which require a wider borehole, we can swap the winch out for a four-tonne capacity alternative.

Typically, these types of rigs require easy and unimpeded access, but there are some occasions where modular percussion drilling rigs are suitable instead.

A Borehole is formed using either a shell (for non-cohesive materials) or a “clay-cutter” (for cohesive materials).

When the ground itself is very hard, or there are potential obstructions in the way, a chiselling tool can be used to great effect.

Sides of the borehole are supported with steel casing to ensure it maintains its shape.

Steel casing is lowered into the borehole as percussive drilling progresses.

    Some instances, the steel cable itself will need to be driven into position to support the borehole sides.

    Including when the hole is driven into gravel or sand, or into saturated zones which have not undergone extensive dewatering.
