Industry Summit | Zhejiang Chigo: Integrated Drilling Rig Becomes the Development Direction of Open-pit Drilling Rig Market

On March 13, the 14th China Cement Industry Summit and TOP100 Award Ceremony Technology Special Event sponsored by China Cement Network was held in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. Ye Youlan, deputy general manager of Zhejiang Zhigao, made the theme report of "Zhigao Machinery Helps the New Development of Cement Industry".

Ye Youlan introduced that with the development of cement industry and the improvement of mining efficiency and environmental protection requirements, the continuous improvement of national requirements for green mine construction has promoted the development of rock drilling operations in a safer, more environmentally friendly and more efficient direction.

In the field of cement mining, the integrated drilling rig has become the development direction of the open-pit drilling rig market. Due to the high concentration of the high-end market industry, foreign brands entered the market earlier and occupied the main share of the market. As early as 2009, in response to the call of "domestic substitution for imports", Chigo invested in the ranks of domestic drilling rigs to replace imported drilling rigs, and Chigo Machinery achieved adverse growth in 2024.
