Description
This presentation will provide a comprehensive overview of the development process of the power train and drive chain of a deep ice core drill, with particular emphasis on the challenges encountered during the project.
The covered deep ice coring drill system is of the type of the commonly used cable-suspended electro-mechanical ice-core drill. In such systems, the electrical power and communication are distributed through the conductors inside the winch cable. The intended drive chain was a brush- and gearless motor.
