The Integrated Rock Drill and Splitter Machine is a modern rock-breaking tool that merges two essential functions—drilling and splitting—into a single hydraulic system. It is designed for contractors who work in environments where blasting is restricted and mechanical rock breakers are inefficient.
Mounted directly onto an excavator, this system delivers high-precision drilling followed by powerful hydraulic splitting. It significantly reduces jobsite noise, dust, and vibrations, making it ideal for urban construction, infrastructure upgrades, and tunneling.
With increasing demand for safe and efficient excavation, this dual-function machine is quickly becoming a standard tool across construction and mining projects.

Key Features of the Integrated Rock Drill and Splitter Machine
YG’s Integrated Rock Drill and Splitter Machine offers a compact yet powerful solution for breaking hard rock. The machine is engineered with user convenience and field efficiency in mind.
Main advantages include:
- Two-in-One Operation: No need for separate drilling and splitting equipment
- Hydraulic Efficiency: Uses stable pressure for consistent splitting force
- Excavator Compatibility: Attaches to most 10–30 ton excavators
- Environmentally Friendly: Produces low noise, minimal dust, and no vibration
- Easy Control Panel: Simplified controls for faster training and safer operations
- Energy-Saving Design: Requires less fuel and manpower compared to conventional systems
These features not only improve productivity but also extend the service life of the equipment and reduce operator fatigue.
Applications of the Integrated Rock Drilling Splitting Machine for Excavator
The versatility of an Integrated Rock Drilling Splitting Machine for Excavator makes it invaluable across a broad spectrum of industries and project types, particularly where traditional blasting is not an option. Its primary applications include:
- Construction Sites:
- Excavation of foundations in rocky terrain, especially in urban areas where noise and vibration must be minimized.
- Trenching for pipelines, cables, and utilities through hard rock.
- Demolition of concrete structures or reinforced rock without explosive use.
- Quarrying and Mining:
- Controlled extraction of dimension stone where blasting would cause excessive damage or cracking.
- Secondary breaking of oversized boulders.
- Creating benches or access roads in hard rock without the need for permits or large-scale blasting procedures.
- Road and Bridge Construction:
- Cutting through rock outcrops for road widening or new road construction in mountainous or hilly areas.
- Preparing foundations for bridge abutments in rocky riverbeds.
- Tunneling and Underground Excavation:
- Enlarging tunnels or creating new underground spaces in sensitive environments where ground disturbance is a concern.
- Demolition in Sensitive Areas:
- Breaking rock near existing buildings, historical structures, or infrastructure (e.g., power lines, railways) where vibration and fly rock are unacceptable risks.
- Underwater Rock Breaking: With appropriate modifications, some units can be used for breaking submerged rock for dredging or foundation work.
The ability of an Integrated Hydraulic Rock Drill & splitter to perform precise, controlled rock breaking makes it an indispensable tool for these diverse and demanding applications.
Essential Components of the Equipment
A complete Integrated Rock Drill and Splitter Machine system comprises specialized components for drilling and splitting, critical for operation and maintenance:
- Support Components: High-pressure hydraulic hoses, transition adapters, and (for some rigs) steel wire ropes for lifting/lowering parts, ensuring system connectivity.
- Drilling Rig (Main Machine/Attachment)： The core unit. Standalone models include engine, hydraulic system, control panel, and integrated drill mast with splitting cylinder. Excavator-mounted units are specialized attachments linked to hydraulic lines.
- Air Compressor (for DTH Drilling): Required for DTH hammer operations, supplying high-pressure air to drive the hammer and flush cuttings. Capacity (CFM/PSI) must match the rig’s needs.
- Hydraulic Power Unit (HPU)： Generates high-pressure hydraulic power for drilling (if hydraulic rotary) and splitting. Excavator-mounted systems use the excavator’s hydraulics.
- Drilling Tools：
Drill Bits: Cutting tools for rock, varying by hardness and diameter (e.g., carbide button bits for hard rock, chisel bits).
Drill Rods: Hollow steel pipes connecting bits to the rotary head/DTH hammer, transmitting rotation, feed force, and air/fluid.
DTH Hammer (optional): Percussive tool at the drill string base, using compressed air to strike the bit for rock pulverization. - Splitting Wedges (Feathers & Plugs): Inserted into pre-drilled holes, where the main plug, driven between feathers, exerts force to split rock.
- Support Components: High-pressure hydraulic hoses, transition adapters, and (for some rigs) steel wire ropes for lifting/lowering parts, ensuring system connectivity.
