Struggling with Quality Control And Risk Prevention in Anchor Rod Construction? Discover This “mecha

In underground engineering construction, anchor rod support operations remain a nerve-wracking phase. The traditional manual approach faces a severe dual challenge: on one hand, anchor rod length and angle are determined by “experience and feel”, with quality control akin to “judging a melon by its skin” – leaving hidden hazards lurking; on the other, workers labouring under high-risk conditions with hand-held drills, suffering physical exhaustion, low construction efficiency, and constant safety hazards hanging over their heads. Quality and safety—these two core pain points—act like shackles, firmly constraining the efficiency and future of underground engineering.

The solution to these pain points lies solely in innovation. The industry's gaze is collectively focused on a clear answer—mechanisation and intelligent upgrading. This is no longer optional; it is the imperative path to ensuring the safety and reliability of underground projects.

Leveraging independent innovation, Wuxin Equipment has developed multiple anchor rod rigs, comprehensively covering applications in tunnels, mines, hydropower stations, water supply projects, and underground caverns. Powered by technology, these rigs deliver efficient, reliable anchor rod support solutions tailored to diverse scenarios, safeguarding the safety and efficiency of underground engineering.

◆High operator adaptability: Remote control operation, simple and easy to learn.

On-site Application Case

A phosphorite mine project in Guizhou has selected the Uniroc rock bolting rig MT571 for anchor rod support operations. The working face dimensions are 4.5m × 3.7m, with rock strength coefficient F8-12. Anchor rods measure 1.8 metres in length, with a drilling depth of 1.9 metres. Each anchor rod installation takes 1.5 minutes.

At a hydropower station project in Qinghai, the face drill rig WD100E was deployed for anchor bolt hole operations. The circular tunnel cross-section measured 11.8 metres in diameter, with the working face rock mass classified as Category III. Each 4.5-metre anchor bolt required 1 minute and 50 seconds to drill.

The Uniroc rock bolting rigs have undergone innovative redesigns tailored to diverse operational conditions. During its development phase, the project yielded substantial achievements, securing five authorised invention patents, eighteen utility model patents, and two design patents – demonstrating robust technological prowess that underscores its innovative heritage.

     Opting for mechanisation is not merely selecting a piece of equipment; it is choosing a safer, more efficient, and more reliable future. It signifies bidding farewell to an era of apprehension and embracing a new construction epoch characterised by controllable quality, preventable hazards, and predictable progress.

This “mechanised” solution is now ready and waiting for you. Together, let us embark upon a new chapter in underground engineering support operations.
