The PDC (Polycrystalline Diamond Compact) drag bit is a specialized drilling tool used in the process of drag bit drilling. It is designed to efficiently penetrate various types of rock formations, making it a valuable tool in applications such as mining, geothermal drilling, and oil and gas exploration.
The primary advantage of the PDC drag bit lies in its cutting structure. It utilizes a number of domed or concave-shaped polycrystalline diamond cutters that are arranged in a specific pattern on the bit's face. As the bit rotates, these cutters engage the rock formation, grinding and shearing it away. The cutting action is enhanced by the rotation and downward force applied to the bit.
