Working Principle of Pneumatic Drifter

A pneumatic drifter operates using compressed air to generate high-frequency impact energy. The energy is transferred through the drill steel to the drill bit, enabling efficient rock breaking. Drifters are typically mounted on drilling rigs and are ideal for applications requiring long drilling depths and high productivity.
