Traditional rock breaking processes require two machines: a drilling rig for drilling and a rock splitter for operation. This results in high equipment coordination costs, long relocation times, and high labor requirements, especially in hard rock construction in restricted blasting areas and confined spaces, where the efficiency of multi-machine collaboration remains difficult to improve. The hydraulic rock drill and splitter attachment, also known as an integrated drilling and splitting machine, drilling and splitting head, or integrated static blasting attachment, is an excavator-mounted integrated rock breaking attachment. Its core function is to complete the entire drilling and splitting process on a single excavator, eliminating the need for a separate drilling rig and reducing equipment investment and labor coordination costs. Unlike separate drilling and splitting solutions, integrated attachments offer faster switching and greater site adaptability.
YG, as a professional excavator attachment manufacturer, specializes in integrated rock drill and splitter models, compatible with mainstream excavators ranging from 20 to 40 tons. Currently, our equipment has been exported in bulk to countries with high demand for mining and infrastructure, such as the Philippines, Peru, South Africa, Vietnam, Indonesia, and Brazil. It is widely applicable to various scenarios including mining, rock breaking for infrastructure, and stone processing, and is especially suitable for projects with strict blasting regulations and limited space.

What Are the Core Functions of the YG Integrated Drilling and Splitting Machine?
- Integrated Drilling and Splitting Operation: Drilling and splitting are integrated on the same attachment, allowing a single excavator to complete all processes without the need for two machines working together.
- Rapid Workstation Switching in Seconds: Hydraulically driven automatic switching between drilling and splitting positions eliminates the need for manual head changes, significantly reducing auxiliary time.
- High-Efficiency Rock Drilling: High-speed hydraulic rock drills achieve drilling speeds of 0.8-1.2 meters per minute in hard rock, producing high-quality holes with no deviation.
- High-Thrust Static Splitting: A single drill can split rocks with a maximum force of up to 5000 tons, easily splitting even ultra-hard rocks such as granite and basalt.
- Flexible All-Angle Operation: The excavator boom can be adjusted to any angle, allowing drilling and splitting operations on horizontal, vertical, and inclined surfaces, adapting to complex terrain.
- Intelligent Overload Protection: The hydraulic system features pressure overload protection, automatically releasing pressure when encountering extremely hard rock layers to protect the drill rod and splitting gun, extending equipment lifespan.

Project Case Studies of Brazilian and Swedish Clients Purchasing YG Integrated Drilling and Splitting Machines
Case Study 1: Granite Quarry in Minas Gerais, Brazil
Client Background:
PedraMine, a Brazilian stone company, operates a medium-sized granite quarry, primarily producing white granite blocks for the local and North American markets. Previously, they used blasting, but this method was cumbersome to obtain approval for, resulted in severe cracking of the blocks, and a yield of only about 30%, leading to significant waste.
Solution:
In 2024, they purchased a YG drilling and splitting machine, paired with a Komatsu PC300 excavator (30-ton class), for the separation and secondary crushing of blocks at the main working face of the quarry.
Usage Results:
- The yield rate increased from 30% with blasting to over 65%, and the quality of raw blocks significantly improved.
- Daily extraction of raw blocks reached 80-100 cubic meters, twice as efficient as manual drilling and splitting.
- The blasting approval process was eliminated, eliminating the need to wait for approval before starting work.
- The number of operators was reduced from 5 to 2 (excavator driver + assistant), saving 60% on labor costs.
Customer Testimonial:
“When we used blasting, more than half of the rocks were shattered, resulting in a low price. After switching to YG’s integrated drilling and splitting machine, the integrity of the raw blocks is excellent. Customers say the quality of the slabs is higher than before. The equipment has been used for over a year, and apart from replacing two drill bits, there haven’t been any problems. It’s worth the price.” — Purchasing Manager Carlos Silva
Case Study 2: Stockholm Metro Expansion Project, Sweden
Client Background:
NCC Construction, a local Swedish infrastructure contractor, undertook the foundation pit construction for a station on the Stockholm Metro Blue Line extension. The excavation pit is located next to a residential area in the city center. The underground rock is hard gneiss, and the surrounding buildings have strict vibration restrictions (≤0.3cm/s), making blasting completely impossible. Residents have also complained about the noise and vibration from the hydraulic breaker.
Solution:
Purchase two large integrated drilling and splitting machines from YG, mounted on a Volvo EC350 and EC480 excavator, respectively, operating in two shifts.
Performance Results:
- Successfully passed environmental assessments; vibration and noise levels were well below limits, with zero complaints from nearby residents.
- Approximately 180 cubic meters of rock were broken per day, 15% ahead of schedule.
- The equipment operated stably in the -20°C environment of Northern Europe without any hydraulic system malfunctions.
- The project completed the foundation pit excavation one week ahead of schedule, earning praise from the client.
Client Testimonial:
“The biggest challenge in hard rock engineering in the city center is environmental compliance. We tried several solutions and finally chose the Chinese drilling and fracturing machine. To be honest, we were initially a little worried about the quality. But after using it, we found that this equipment is not only highly efficient but also extremely reliable, working normally even at -20°C. We have already added it to our company’s standard equipment list.” — Project Manager Erik Johansson

Frequently Asked Questions About YG Excavator Attachment Drilling and Splitting Machine
A1: An integrated attachment allows a single excavator to complete both drilling and splitting, saving one machine and one worker. It also allows for faster site relocation, a smaller footprint, and an overall efficiency increase of over 50%, making it more cost-effective for long-term operation.
A2: Suitable for medium-hard rock and weathered rock up to 60MPa. It can also be used for extremely hard rock, although drilling speed will decrease. Construction parameters can be adjusted according to rock type, adapting to most engineering scenarios.
A3: For hard rock (f>10), an integrated drill and splitter is more efficient. Hydraulic breakers break rock by impact, resulting in large rebounds, rapid drill rod wear, and low efficiency in hard rock. Integrated drills and splitters internally split the rock, cracking it regardless of its hardness, as long as a hole can be drilled. The efficiency for hard rock is 3-5 times that of hydraulic breakers, and consumable costs are also lower.
A4: Yes. The hydraulic components of the entire system are sealed, allowing normal operation at depths up to 30 meters. It is commonly used for underwater rock breaking, channel dredging, and reef removal. However, please note that if the rock drill requires an air compressor, a special configuration is needed for underwater operation. Please specify your working conditions before placing your order.
A5: Southeast Asian countries (Indonesia, Philippines, Vietnam, etc.) approximately 7-15 days; Middle East (Saudi Arabia, UAE) approximately 15-20 days; Africa (Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa) approximately 25-35 days; South America (Brazil, Peru, Chile) approximately 30-40 days; Europe (Sweden, Germany, Spain) approximately 25-30 days. The exact time depends on the destination port and shipping schedule.
A6: The entire machine has a 1-year warranty, and core components have a 6-month warranty. For minor, routine issues, we offer video guidance from our engineers for troubleshooting, and parts are typically shipped via international express and arrive within 3-7 days. For major issues, we can arrange for an engineer to provide on-site service (travel expenses will apply).
