The Best Mining Equipment Around
As diamond drill bits have become more commonplace in the world of mining equipment, the push for innovation has shifted from materials development to design development. Because diamond is literally the standard by which hardness is measured, no further innovation will result in a harder substance, so manufacturers are now focusing on improving the design of the mining equipment. For drill bits, this means making slight adjustments to all of the angles of the bit body to see what combinations and characteristics result in more effective products. Minor changes to the angle at which the diamond contacts the rock can have noticeable effects on performance.
