Key Functions:

• Powering Pneumatic Drills: Compressed air drives pneumatic drills, creating a powerful and consistent source of energy for drilling into different materials.
• Operating Down-the-Hole (DTH) Hammers: In hard rock formations, DTH hammers powered by compressed air fracture the rock, allowing for effective drilling.
• Rotary Drilling: Compressed air turns the drill stem and bit, grinding through rock and sediment.
• Surging and Jetting: During well development, compressed air surges or jets water in and out of the borehole to scour out cuttings.
• Cooling and Cleaning: Compressed air cools drill bits and cleans the bottom of the hole, ensuring efficient drilling operations.
