Feed Cylinder
This feed cylinder (crowd cylinder) is the core actuator for the drilling feed system of rotary drilling rigs. It drives the power head (rotary drive) up and down along the mast guide rails while applying continuous, controllable crowd force to the drill string — directly determining penetration rate and borehole quality. Featuring an ultra-long stroke design (up to 9 meters or more), exceptionally high bending stiffness, and a precision sealed waterproof structure, it delivers stable, reliable feed and hoisting power under severe conditions of high drilling pressure, intense vibration, slurry immersion, and frequent reciprocating motion, ensuring safe and efficient deep-hole drilling.
