RIAMOND is а young and dynamic company, founded in 2010. The company manufactures impregnated and set core bits, casing shoes, reaming shells, and geotechnical drilling bits. RIAMOND products are sold in North and South America, Australia, Asia, Africa, and Europe.
RIAMOND Diamond Products are manufactured in а modern well equipped plant, using the latest Canadian and Australian manufacturing technology.
The personnel at RIAMOND have experience in the mining and mineral exploration and core drilling industry going back to the 1970s. Their experience in designing, engineering, and manufacturing, has placed RIAMOND at the forefront of diamond drill bit technology.
Using sophisticated, proprietary fumacing techniques, and experts in powder metallurgy, RIAMOND is аblе to manufacture а broad range of matrices to achieve the best possiЫe bonds for everyday drilling demands.
Specializing in prompt technical problem solving, we pride ourselves in our abllity to respond to customer demands, with the supply of high quality products at competitive prices.
The founding partners have in excess of eighty years of combined Canadian and Australian expertise in the areas of matrix metallurgy, technical design, manufacturing processes, and quality control systems.
RIAMOND is continually improving their product performances based оn extensive R&D programs, innovative product development, and field experience.
OUR PRODUCTS
DIAMOND BITS
RIAMOND impregnated diamond Bits are manufactured using the highest quality raw materials to ensure optimum drilling performance. As а result of 40+ years of experience in the drilling industry, we are аblе to provide the right product for your drilling conditions. Various face profiles, bonds, and diamond qualities are used for superior coring performance, and longer Bit life, resulting in fewer rod trips, thereby reducing costs, and improving core production.
RIAMOND REAMING SHELLS
Our diamond reamer shells are available in either surface set or impregnated type. The wear pads are reinforced with tungsten carblde inserts on the leading rotational edge. This reduces the erosion of the matrix around the diamonds, forcing the cutting up the water ways passages and up the hole reducing wear and leading to longer life. Hard metal wear strips оп the shank are also available.
CASING AND ROD SHOES
RIAMOND’S range of casing, and rod shoes are the cost efficient drilling solution for the insertion of casing. The tough wear design pattern with reenforced ID and OD gauge makes sure the gauge size is maintained in all abrasive conditions. The impregnated shoes are available in either the VV profile, or flat face. The casing, and rod shoes are manufactured with materials to suit the customer’s requirements.
MATRIX RANGE SELECTION
SUGGESTED MATRIX USAGE FOR VARIOUS ROCK ТYРЕS MOH’S ROCK НARDNESS SCALE
We also fine tune, variances of the standard matrices, to match drill capability, and formation encountered.
Proper flushing is critical to maximizing bit performance, and to ensure bit will not be damaged in the hole. Drillers have standardized on several waterway configurations to cover formation hardness, and structure. Some of the most popular designs are shown below.
STANDARD Waterway:
– Provides good fluid flow for competent, fine grained, abrasive and non abrasive formations;
– Geometry allows for the most diamonds to be used (largest face contact area);
– Recommended for N sized bits and smaller.
WIDE Waterway:
– For more difficult conditions requiring increased fluid flow
– Coarse grained, fractured, and broken;
– Reduced contact area allows for increased penetration rates;
– Recommended for N sized bits and larger;
LATERAL/SUPERFLUSH (Deep ID) Waterway:
LATERAL /SUPERFLUSH (Deep ID) Waterway:
– For difficult conditions where the core sample is susceptible to washing and in lost circulation
conditions where heavier muds are required (unconsolidated/broken formations);
– Recommended for N sized bits and larger, available for standard or triple tube design bits;
– Often offers superior results over “Face Discharge” or “TT” with reduced core washing and material
blockages.
