Who Is This Indonesian Customer and What Is His Core Business?
This authentic case comes from a mid-sized mining and quarrying contractor based in Sumatra, Indonesia. The company operates a 30-ton excavator and specializes in granite and limestone quarry extraction, infrastructure rock breaking, and construction-site foundation works across the region.
Before upgrading, the company relied entirely on drilling-and-blasting methods, which created growing problems for both production efficiency and regulatory compliance. The owner had been searching online for a safer and more efficient integrated rock drill and splitter to replace traditional explosive-based extraction.
What Difficulties Did the Customer Face Before Using Integrated Rock Drill and Splitter?
The traditional blasting method created four serious problems that threatened the contractor’s business and reputation.
- Strict blasting restrictions and permit delays. Many Indonesian quarries and infrastructure sites now ban or heavily restrict blasting due to safety and environmental concerns. Getting blasting permits was slow, and nearby communities frequently opposed explosive operations.
- Extremely high explosive and equipment costs. Blasting requires licensed technicians, explosive materials, storage permits, and insurance, adding huge recurring costs to every project. These costs ate deeply into the contractor’s profit margin.
- Severe safety risks. Explosives pose constant dangers, including misfires, fly rock, and uncontrolled vibrations that can damage nearby structures and harm workers.
- Environmental and community complaints. Blasting produces loud noise, dust, and ground vibration, triggering repeated complaints and occasional work stoppages ordered by local authorities.
These stubborn problems drove the owner to search for a professional hydraulic rock drill and splitter that could break hard rock safely and efficiently without explosives.
Why Did the Customer Choose YG’s Integrated Rock Drill and Splitter Solution?
While searching Google for an integrated rock drill and splitter, the contractor discovered YG Machinery’s official website and was impressed by its professional drilling-and-splitting attachments. Unlike simple breakers, YG’s integrated unit combines a hydraulic drill and a powerful splitter in one attachment, mounted directly on the excavator.
The owner carefully studied the technical parameters, watched real on-site working videos from overseas mining customers, and compared several options on the market. Many cheaper attachments lacked drilling capability or offered weak splitting force, leaving him dependent on separate expensive equipment.
After a full evaluation, he contacted YG’s technical team and received a professional recommendation based on his 30-ton excavator and local rock conditions. The YG-130 model was identified as the perfect match.

What Worries Did the Customer Have Before Buying? How Did YG Solve Them?
Before placing the order, the Indonesian customer had three typical concerns, and YG’s team resolved each one clearly.
- First worry: Machine compatibility with his excavator. The owner feared a drill and splitter attachment would not match his 30-ton excavator’s hydraulic flow and pressure, causing weak performance or machine damage.
YG’s solution: The technical team confirmed that the YG-130 integrated rock drill and splitter is specially designed for 20–36 ton excavators, with matching hydraulic flow of at least 240L/min and working pressure up to 35MPa. Real cases from similar excavator models confirmed stable performance. - Second worry: Hard-rock splitting power. Indonesia’s granite and basalt are dense and tough, and the owner worried the machine would stall on hard rock.
YG’s solution: The integrated rock drill and splitter delivers a maximum piling thrust force of 160KN and drilling thrust of 50KN, more than enough for hard granite and limestone. Working videos from similar quarry clients proved the splitting capability. - Third worry: After-sales support and operation training. The owner was concerned about complex operation and lack of overseas technical guidance.
YG’s solution: YG provided full remote-control operation training, detailed maintenance documentation, and fast spare-parts delivery, ensuring the crew could operate the machine confidently from day one.
What Unexpected Excellent Results Did the Machine Bring?
After formal deployment, the results surprised even the owner himself, with obvious quantitative improvements.
- Blasting costs eliminated: The contractor no longer needs explosives, licensed blasting technicians, or storage permits. Recurring explosive and insurance costs dropped to zero, significantly improving project profit margins.
- Production efficiency increased by 40%+:The combined drilling-and-splitting cycle works continuously on the excavator. Compared with the separate drilling and blasting process, the daily broken-rock output rose by over 40% without waiting for permits.
- Zero safety accidents and full compliance: Remote-controlled operation keeps workers away from the rock face, eliminating fly-rock and misfire risks. The contractor now passes all local safety inspections easily.
- Community complaints disappeared: Without blasting, there is no loud noise, dust, or ground vibration. Nearby residents and local authorities stopped objecting to the quarry operations.
