Engine & Power System
• Rated Power: 4000 HP from a high‑performance diesel engine
• Drive System: Utilizes an integrated drive (often a combination of AC and mechanical/hydraulic elements) optimized for efficient power transfer and fuel efficiency
Torque & Pullback Capacity
• Pullback (Line Pull) Capacity: Typically designed to deliver in the range of approximately 300–350 tons (roughly 600,000–700,000 lbs)
• Torque Output: Engineered to produce high torque—commonly on the order of 50,000–60,000 lb‑ft—to ensure smooth and controlled cable handling even under heavy loads
Drum & Cable Handling
• Drum Diameter: Often features a large drum (around 36 inches or greater) to maximize cable capacity and optimize winding efficiency
• Cable Speed: Operates at controlled, low speeds (generally around 40–60 ft/min) for precise, gradual cable movement
• Cable Capacity: Designed for extended drilling runs and high-cycle operations, handling long drill strings reliably
Clutch & Brake System
• Low‑Speed Clutch: Incorporates a multi‑plate clutch assembly engineered for smooth engagement/disengagement under heavy torque conditions
• Brake Assembly: Integrated friction brakes provide rapid, controlled deceleration to protect the cable and maintain precise tension
• Hydraulic System: Typically, the hydraulic controls operate at pressures around 2500–3000 psi, ensuring precise feed and disengagement control
Control & Monitoring
• Digital Control Interface: Equipped with a state‑of‑the‑art control panel for real‑time monitoring of key parameters (drum speed, torque, hydraulic pressure)
• Safety Features: Integrated overload, temperature, and emergency shutdown systems enhance operational safety and reliability
Construction & Durability
• Materials: Built from high‑strength, heat‑treated alloy steel and rugged hydraulic components designed to withstand harsh drilling environments
• Design: Engineered for long service life and minimal maintenance downtime, with features to optimize heat dissipation during extended high-load operation
• Integration: Designed to fit within standard rig layouts while providing a stable, compact footprint
Applications
• Suited for deep‑well, high‑pressure directional drilling operations
• Ideal for rigs that require exceptionally high pullback capacity and precise cable management under demanding conditions
