Global Tunneling And Rock Drilling Equipment Market Definition

A rock drill is a machine designed to drill through rocks. It is used in numerous activities such as mineral exploration, digging wells, and preparing foundations. On the other side, tunneling is an underground passage provided beneath the earth’s surface. The tunneling and rock drilling equipment are used to carry out these operations simultaneously. This equipment is used to create massive holes in the earth’s subsurface that are used for the extraction of minerals or the construction of infrastructure projects such as underground tunnels.

The tunneling and rock drilling equipment are categorized as tunnel boring machines (TBM), tapping equipment, reaming, and so on. On the basis of product, they are distinguished into medium-sized, large-sized, and heavy-sized. This equipment is predominantly used in mining, construction, and oil and natural gas production. They find application in making underground passages used for transportation for carrying freights and passengers, water, and sewage. Rock drills are used for various activities such as lime mines, drilling, quarries, construction, and civil engineering work.
