 On the Suzhou section of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, above the blue waves, a 'defense battle' to stabilize the riverbank is being efficiently advanced. Multiple small and medium-sized rotary drilling rigs, clad in 'Tysim Green', stand steadily on the decks of construction vessels, precisely implanting solid 'backbones' for the canal slope protection project. This is a powerful showcase of the products of Jiangsu Tysim Machinery Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as 'Tysim Machinery'), which has focused on the R&D and manufacturing of small and medium-sized rotary drilling rigs for over a decade, in the field of waterborne construction.



On the vessel deck, small rotary rigs demonstrate great waterborne capabilities



    Unlike common large equipment, the rotary drilling rigs deployed by Tysim Machinery this time are designed for high efficiency and flexibility. The project adopts an innovative 'vessel-mounted construction' scheme: a pile driver first precisely installs 7-meter-deep steel casings to lay a solid foundation for subsequent operations. Then, Tysim's small and medium-sized rotary drilling rigs take the stage. With theirexcellent stability and hole-forming accuracy, they efficiently drill support pile holes with a diameter of 0.8 meters and a depth of 15 meters on the limited working deck of the vessel. Subsequently, steel reinforcement cages are precisely positioned, followed by concrete pouring. Sturdy support piles quickly take shape along the canal bank, creating a modern safety barrier for the millennia-old canal.




'Little Steel Cannon on Land' transforms into 'Steady Pile Handler on Water'



    The success of this construction is primarily attributed to the uniqueperfect integration of lightweight design and high performance in Tysim's small and medium-sized rotary drilling rigs:

1. Lightweight and easy boarding: The overall weight is significantly lighter than similar models of rotary drilling equipment on the market, perfectly solving the key challenge of vessel load capacity limitations, making it possible to safely drive onto the construction vessel and operate stably.

2. 'Little Steel Cannon' heritage, undiminished power: Although lightweight, it inherits the 'Little Steel Cannon' reputation that Tysim drilling rigs have always enjoyed. Strong power head output and an optimizedwinchsystem ensure efficient drillingcapability even in complex strata, stably completing the client's requirements for high-quality support piles every day.

3. Rock-solid, safe and efficient: To address the challenge of vessel sway, the equipment adopts a low-center-of-gravity design and an intelligentvertical leveling system, combined with optimizedwidened track ground pressure, firmly 'gripping' the deck on the shimmering canal, ensuring safety throughout construction and vertical accuracy of the holes. The project manager commented: 'When working on a vessel, the biggest concerns are equipment stability and efficiency. Tysim's small rotary rig has a low center of gravity and stable footing; the vessel only sways slightly, the hole accuracy fully meets standards, and the efficiency exceeds our expectations.'



Empowering canal protection, Tysim solutions earn continued trust



    Tysim Machinery has been deeply engaged in the field of small and medium-sizedpile machineryfor over a decade. Its products are known for flexibility, efficiency, and strong adaptability, especially excelling in special working conditions with limited space and high load-bearing requirements. The Suzhou section slope protection project of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal is a vivid validation of its 'lightweight and high-energy' product philosophy.Currently, five Tysim rotary drilling rigs are operating efficiently on the project, and as the project progresses, more Tysim 'light cavalry' will join, continuously contributing to the protection of the canal's safety.

    'Making efficient foundation construction ubiquitous' — Tysim Machinery is continuously expanding the application boundaries of pile machinery with innovation. From land to water, Tysim's small rotary rigs prove with strength: light can also bear weight; small can achieve greatness!
