2At the end of May 2026, the snow‑covered plateau of Xizang welcomed a fleet of "steel troopers". More than 20 units of Xiongtai Machinery XT‑1200 and XT‑1600 drilling rigs have successfully arrived, finished commissioning one after another and been put into construction.With cutting‑edge technology, these rigs break through environmental constraints including high altitude, low temperature and oxygen shortage. With actual operating altitude records of 5375.8 meters and 5406.6 meters, they adapt well to plateau operating environments and give full play to the advantages of domestic exploration equipment.

       The construction zone in Xizang has an average altitude of over 5,000 meters, featuring thin air, bitter cold and an extremely large temperature difference between day and night. Conventional equipment often suffers from power loss, hydraulic failures and difficult startup, making this area a "forbidden zone" for engineering machinery.Targeting plateau working‑condition requirements, the R&D team of Xiongtai Machinery has carried out in‑depth technical research and optimization focusing on core pain points. We upgraded the plateau‑specific hydraulic system, adopted low‑temperature antifreeze hydraulic oil and sealing assemblies to eliminate low‑temperature leakage and power stalling.The matching scheme for turbocharged engines has also been optimized, equipped with power compensation technology to solve power attenuation under oxygen‑deficient conditions, ensuring stable power output of the drilling rigs at high altitudes.

  From drawing optimization and site testing to component iteration and complete‑machine commissioning, the R&D team has carried out multiple rounds of plateau simulation tests and on‑site working‑condition verification.It enables the drilling rigs to start reliably and run smoothly in extreme cold of ‑30℃ and at altitudes above 5400 m, breaking the plateau‑adaptation bottleneck of conventional equipment.

  The XT‑1200 and XT‑1600 drilling rigs delivered to Xizang this time are the flagship models of Xiongtai Machinery’s plateau series, boasting outstanding stability, environmental adaptability and construction performance.Upon arrival at the construction site, the equipment was rapidly assembled and commissioned. The rigs operated smoothly at working elevations of 5375.8 meters and 5406.6 meters with well‑organized drilling operations. All performance indicators meet the design specifications, and real‑world field data proves the product’s advantage of worry‑free plateau‑construction performance.

   "Equipment stability is the core of plateau construction. Xiongtai drilling rigs operate flawlessly throughout the whole process in oxygen-deficient and low-temperature environments with strong power and high efficiency, perfectly adapting to the harsh plateau working conditions," commented the on-site construction supervisor with high recognition of the equipment performance.

As a domestic drilling equipment manufacturer, Xiongtai Machinery always adheres to the development philosophy of "Empowering Technology, Winning by Quality". The batch operation of Xiongtai rigs in Xizang not only fully demonstrates the superior product performance, but also marks a major breakthrough in the application of domestic drilling equipment in high-altitude environments.
