What are the common failures in the use of drills

 Common Drill Failures

Bit wear: This is the most common failure of drill bits. It mainly manifests itself in the form of blunting, chipping, chipping angle, smoothing, rounding, etc. of the tooth edge.
Bit breakage: The bit may break when it is subjected to excessive shock load or torque.
Drill bit sticking: The drill bit sticks to the wall of the well, making it impossible for the drill tool to continue drilling.
Drill Bit Stuck: The drill bit is stuck in a crack or hole in the wall, preventing further drilling or lifting.
Drill Bit Deflection: The drill bit is deflected during drilling, resulting in a skewed hole.

Causes of Drill Bit Failure
Stratigraphic conditions: The hardness, abrasiveness, porosity, etc. of the stratum affects the wear rate of the drill bit.
Drilling parameters: Improper selection of drilling pressure, rotational speed, drilling cycle, etc. can lead to overloading or rapid wear of the drill bit.
Drilling fluid performance: Inappropriate parameters such as density, viscosity and solid phase content of the drilling fluid will affect the cooling and slag removal of the bit and accelerate the wear.
Combination of drilling tools: Unreasonable combination of drilling tools will increase the load of the drill bit and shorten its service life.
Operation error: Operator's operation error, such as impact drilling, frequent speed change, etc., will also lead to bit damage.

Effects of drill bit failure
Reduced drilling efficiency: Heavy wear of the drill bit reduces the drilling speed and increases the drilling cycle time.
Increase drilling costs: Frequent bit replacement increases costs.
Causing downhole accidents: Broken drill bits and stuck drill bits may lead to downhole accidents, resulting in casualties and equipment damage.

By taking the above measures, you can effectively reduce drill bit failures, improve drilling efficiency and reduce costs.

How much does it cost to buy a slurry pump

  The price of slurry pumps can be affected by a variety of factors, so it is difficult to give an exact figure. Generally speaking, the price of slurry pumps will vary according to the following factors: Factors affecting the price of slurry pumps Pump type and specifications: flow, head, caliber, material and other parameters are different, the price will also have a big difference. Pump material: slurry pump contact medium corrosive different, the material selected is different, thus affecting the price. Common materials are cast iron, stainless steel, wear-resistant alloy. Pump brand: different brands of pumps, its technical level, quality, after-sales service and so on there are differences, the price will naturally be different. Pump configuration: pump configuration, such as motor, control system, seals, etc., will also affect the price. Purchase Quantity: Bulk purchases are usually discounted to a certain extent. Market conditions: Fluctuations in the price of raw materials...

How to replace the impeller of a slurry pump

  The impeller of the slurry pump is a wearing part, which needs to be inspected and replaced periodically. The process of replacing the impeller is relatively complex and requires certain specialized knowledge and skills. The following are the steps for replacing the impeller of the slurry pump: 1. Preparation Shut down and disconnect the power:  Before any operation, be sure to cut off the power supply to ensure safety. Preparation tools:  ready wrenches, screwdrivers, gaskets, new impeller and so on. Drain:  Empty the pump. Protective measures:  Wear protective gloves, safety glasses and other protective equipment. 2. Disassembly Procedure DISASSEMBLY:  Disassemble the suction and discharge pipes connected to the pump. Remove pump cover:  Loosen the bolts securing the pump cover and carefully remove the cover. Remove the impeller:  Loosen the nuts secure the impeller with a suitable tool and remove the impeller. 3. Install the new impeller Insp...
