Cutter Picks Deliver Consistent Performance at Malaysian Construction Site

Project Background

A leading construction contractor in Malaysia recently implemented our cutter picks in a large-scale infrastructure project involving mixed and highly abrasive strata. The operation required tools that could maintain cutting efficiency while minimizing downtime and tool replacement costs.

Customer Challenge

The contractor was facing:

• Frequent wear of conventional cutter picks

• Unstable performance when transitioning between soft and hard ground

• High replacement frequency causing delays in daily advance rates

• Rising operational costs due to tool inefficiency

They needed a reliable and durable cutting solution that could withstand demanding ground conditions and support continuous excavation.

Our Solution

Milalion Tools supplied a batch of premium-grade cutter picks engineered with:

• High-strength alloy steel for impact resistance

• Optimized carbide tips for improved wear life

• Precision heat treatment to ensure consistent hardness

• Advanced brazing technology to secure carbide retention

These cutter picks were fully compatible with their existing equipment and required no modification to install.

Performance on Site

After several weeks of operation, the contractor provided highly positive feedback:

• Improved Wear Life: Cutter picks demonstrated significantly longer service hours compared to their previous supplier.

• Stable Penetration Rate: The picks maintained cutting efficiency across varying geological formations.

• Reduced Downtime: Fewer tool changes resulted in smoother project progress and higher productivity.

• Cost Savings: Lower consumption rate directly reduced operational costs.

The site supervisors highlighted the consistency of the picks and the noticeable improvement in daily output.

Customer Feedback

“Your cutter picks perform very well on our site. Wear life and penetration are stable, and we’ve experienced fewer tool replacements. We are satisfied with the performance.”
