Case Study: Meiger DL350 Hydraulic Rock Splitter Solves Tuff Removal on Foundation Excavation

Case Study: Meiger DL350 Hydraulic Rock Splitter Solves Tuff Removal on Foundation Excavation
A municipal foundation excavation project was crippled by large high-hardness tuff deposits, with all traditional rock-breaking solutions falling short. The project was 15 days behind schedule, and the client faced massive contract penalty risks.

Core Client Pain Points

  1. Ineffective traditional methods: Pneumatic picks could barely break the hard tuff, delivering less than 200 tons of daily output
  2. Strict compliance limits: Adjacent to a residential area (within 200m), explosive blasting was completely prohibited; wire saw cutting and expansive cement were either too slow or way over budget
  3. Space constraints: Narrow foundation pits blocked large rock-breaking equipment, forcing manual work and further slashing efficiency

Our Custom Solution

Our team conducted an on-site survey, identified the client’s non-negotiable needs for compliance, speed and cost control, and co-created a tailored solution:
  • 4 sets of DL350 handheld hydraulic rock splitters
  • Standardized drilling parameters: 1m×1m hole spacing, 1m hole depth
  • Full operator training and on-site technical support

Outstanding Results

  • 5x efficiency boost: 3-5 times faster than traditional methods; single hole split in 30-60 seconds, over 1200 tons of daily output with pre-drilling. The project finished 10 days ahead of schedule, fully eliminating penalty risks
  • 100% compliance & safety: Pure static hydraulic drive, no noise, dust, vibration or shock waves. Zero resident complaints, zero safety accidents, and smooth passage of all inspections
  • 40%+ cost reduction: Minimal maintenance costs, cutting comprehensive construction costs by over 40% compared to traditional solutions
