The field of diamond drilling dictates that onsite jobs are executed briskly, for the drilling operators to make way for the rest of the process to run its course. The following points outline the ways a Diamond Sawing Service can enhance its efficiency, so as to meet its delivery deadlines by comfortable margins.
Focus on the drill bit
The all-important statistic to glean and measure for continuous improvement is the rate at which the drill infiltrates into the material onto which the holes are shrunk. Improvements can be triggered by selecting the correct bit, particularly in terms of their weight, for every individual job, and understanding in each case the material one is set to drill into. Other aspects that cause the rate of penetration and one’s diamond drilling productivity to vary are the availability of running water and the maximum rotational speed of the drill.
Investment in gear, and the quality of maintenance thereof
Not having the right tools for the job is a highly amateurish scenario that you must guard against. Go for the best equipment you can afford. Do not cut corners will investing in equipment, because the quality of your purchase will directly affect the worth of your work.
The other feature governing the efficacy of your tools is the lengths you will go to to maintain them. Address any equipment breakdown by servicing them. Take care to clean and wash your drills and bits so that these can continue to be worked at maximum efficiency.
Planning jobs and keeping tools at the ready
When a drilling workman enters a site, it is recommended that they spend some time in an unhurried inspection of the job at hand. Rove the space, recognise the material to be drilled into and examine the tools to do it with. Consolidate the target of your efforts and double-check the tools in your arsenal, so that once you begin you can go from start to finish in a proverbial single breath, maxing the expectations of co-workers and employers.
Lean on experience
Diamond sawing is a field that can be owned through experience. For contractors and workers, it is vital that they retain information, such as the viability of a particular bit on a particular material, garnered from first-hand work experience. The longer you spend on honing skills, the more you defang potential novelties, because you have prior experience of success embedded in your memory, allowing you to get quicker and more proficient at your job.
