In the field of engineering construction, second-hand rotary drilling RIGS have become the choice of many enterprises due to their cost-performance advantage. However, their prices fluctuate greatly. Understanding the core influencing factors can help buyers avoid traps and negotiate prices accurately. The following breaks down the price logic from five key dimensions and supplements one easily overlooked hidden point to provide a reference for purchasing decisions.
1. Market supply and demand relationship: When infrastructure projects are launched in a concentrated manner, the demand for second-hand rotary drilling RIGS surges, and suppliers may raise their quotations. If the industry is in the off-season and the equipment idleness rate is high, the price often has more room for negotiation. The imbalance between supply and demand will directly lead to a fluctuation of 10% to 20% in the price.
2. Equipment service life and usage duration: Generally, drilling RIGS that have been in use for less than 3 years and have a working duration of less than 5,000 hours have low wear and tear on core components, and their prices can remain at 60% to 70% of those of new machines. However, for equipment that has been in use for more than 8 years or has accumulated over 15,000 working hours, due to the rising maintenance costs, its price may only be around 30% of that of a new machine.
3. Core component status: The engine, hydraulic system, and drill pipe are the three core components that determine the price core. If the engine has no major overhaul record, the hydraulic system has no leakage, and the wear of the drill pipe is within the standard range, the equipment price will be more than 25% higher than that of the faulty machine of the same age. Conversely, for drilling RIGS with hidden dangers in core components, even if their appearance is intact, the price still needs to be significantly reduced.
4. Brand and inventory: Second-hand drilling RIGS from mainstream brands such as XCMG, Sany, and Zoomlion, due to their easily accessible spare parts and numerous maintenance outlets, enjoy high market recognition. Their prices are 15% to 30% higher than those of the same configuration models from niche brands. However, imported brands with extremely low market share may have better performance, but their subsequent maintenance is inconvenient and their prices may be lower than those of mainstream domestic models.
5. Completeness of procedures: Second-hand drilling RIGS with complete purchase invoices, certificates of conformity, and ownership certificates can avoid property rights disputes, have low transaction risks, and their prices are 10%-15% higher than those of equipment with incomplete procedures. If key documents are missing, even if the equipment is in good condition, the price may still be significantly reduced due to the inability to transfer the ownership normally.
6. Maintenance Records and operating conditions: Drilling RIGS that have been operating in soft soil areas for a long time and have complete maintenance records have less body corrosion and component wear. Their prices are about 20% higher than those of equipment of the same age that operate at high intensity in rock conditions and lack maintenance. Clear maintenance records can directly prove the usage status of the equipment and are an important reference basis for pricing.
Overall, the price of second-hand rotary drilling RIGS is not determined by a single factor, but is a comprehensive reflection of multiple dimensions such as equipment condition, market environment, and brand reputation. When making a purchase, buyers should first verify the completeness of the procedures and the status of core components. They should rationally negotiate prices based on maintenance records and actual working conditions to avoid focusing only on the price while ignoring the potential failure risks of the equipment. Only in this way can they achieve high cost-performance procurement.
