YT28 Enhances Worker Comfort During Long Tunnel Drilling Sessions

Our factory specializes in the professional manufacturing of rock drilling machinery, and we are proud to introduce the YT28, a pneumatic leg-type rock drill engineered to directly address the severe physical strain operators face during extended tunneling operations. This robust tool is designed for efficient drilling in medium-hard rock formations, featuring a reliable air motor and an ergonomic design that prioritizes user control. To operate, connect the YT28 to a standard industrial air compressor supply, securely mount it on its accompanying air leg for support and feed, and begin drilling with a steady grip. The key differentiator lies in a direct comparison: where conventional pneumatic leg drills often transmit significant shock and vibration up the operator's arms and body during long shifts, leading to accelerated fatigue, discomfort, and potential long-term health issues, the YT28 incorporates internal damping mechanisms. These features specifically minimize the transfer of this harmful vibration.

Reduced Vibration Supports Sustained Underground Productivity

This focused reduction in hand-arm vibration is not merely a comfort feature; it is a critical productivity and safety upgrade. By mitigating the primary source of operator fatigue, the YT28 allows drilling teams to maintain consistent hole alignment and drilling pressure over the entire work period. Workers experience less numbness and muscle fatigue, enabling sharper focus and steadier control hours into a shift. This sustained accuracy reduces the time and material waste associated with corrective re-drilling. Furthermore, the diminished physical strain contributes directly to a safer working environment by combating the loss of concentration and physical instability that fatigue induces. The result is a more predictable workflow where crew efficiency remains high from the first hole to the last, supporting project timelines. The durable construction of the YT28 ensures this performance is delivered shift after shift, even in the demanding, debris-filled atmosphere of active mine faces and tunnel headings. Its simplified design also facilitates easier maintenance on-site, minimizing costly downtime. For foremen and project managers, this translates into a tangible return on investment through protected worker well-being, reliable performance, and the sustained pace of advance that keeps complex underground projects on schedule. Ultimately, the YT28 redefines the standard for leg-type rock drills by proving that operator-centric engineering and rugged productivity are inseparable in modern excavation work.
