The Advantages of GBD12D and GBD12T in Hard Rock Surface Drilling

When it comes to surface drilling in hard rock environments, the right equipment makes all the difference. Global Mining Equipments (GME), a renowned jackhammer drill manufacturer, offers two of the most versatile and reliable sinker drills on the market: the GBD12D and GBD12T. These high-performance drills are engineered for efficiency and durability, making them the ideal choice for hard rock surface drilling projects. Whether it’s horizontal or vertical drilling, these drills stand out with their lightweight design and powerful impact. Let’s explore how each of these models contributes to enhancing productivity in demanding work environments.

GBD12T Sinker Drill: Power in Vertical Drilling

The GBD12T Sinker Drill, also known as “Perforadora Sinker” in Spanish, is a lightweight, easy-to-handle drill ideal for quick jobs in areas where space is limited. It’s the perfect tool for vertical drilling of up to 2 meters, particularly in soft to medium-hard rock formations. Equivalent to the Atlas Copco BBD 12T Sinker Drill, this tool is highly favored for its ratchet-wheel action, which provides faster rotation and higher impact frequency.

Key Benefits of the GBD12T Sinker Drill:

• Lightweight and Easy to Handle: The GBD12T’s lightweight design ensures that workers can handle it easily, reducing fatigue during long drilling sessions.
• Built-in Air Flushing: This feature allows for faster blasting cycles, making the drilling process smoother and more efficient.
• Stepless Throttle for Easy Collaring: Operators can easily control the collaring process, ensuring that the drill is aligned and stabilized properly for more precise drilling.
• Robust Kick-Latch Retainer: Changing steels quickly and easily is made possible with the robust kick-latch retainer, saving time on site.
• Parts Interchangeability with Atlas Copco BBD12T: The GBD12T is compatible with Atlas Copco BBD12T parts, making it easier to find replacement components and perform maintenance, ensuring the tool’s longevity and reliability.

With these advantages, the GBD12T is ideal for projects where vertical drilling is necessary, and it excels in tough-to-reach areas, making it an indispensable tool for hard rock surface drilling.

GBD12D Sinker Rock Drill: The Horizontal Drilling Master

For horizontal drilling and situations where portability is crucial, the GBD12D Sinker Rock Drill shines. Equivalent to the BBD 12D Atlas Copco Rock Drill, this 20-lb lightweight pneumatic tool is perfect for tasks that demand high penetration rates and efficient operation. With a high impact rate of 2580 BPM, the GBD12D ensures that hard rock is penetrated quickly and effectively.

Key Benefits of the GBD12D Sinker Rock Drill:

• Extremely Lightweight Yet Powerful: At just 20 lbs, the GBD12D is easy to transport and operate in tight spaces while still delivering exceptional power for horizontal drilling tasks.
• Ergonomic D-Type Handle: The D-type handle provides superior grip and control, making it perfect for horizontal drilling, particularly in confined areas.
• High Impact Rate: With an impressive impact rate of 2580 BPM, the GBD12D delivers quick, efficient results in a variety of applications, including anchor drilling, wedge drilling, and drilling into concrete.
• Versatile Applications: The GBD12D excels in multiple tasks, from plug-hole drilling and concrete drilling to anchor and wedge drilling, making it a versatile tool for any project requiring precise horizontal drilling.
• Parts Interchangeability with Atlas Copco BBD12D: Like the GBD12T, the GBD12D offers parts interchangeability with its Atlas Copco counterpart, allowing for quick repairs and easy maintenance.

The GBD12D’s lightweight nature combined with its powerful performance makes it a top choice for hard rock surface drilling, especially in projects where horizontal drilling is needed.
