In response to issues such as the independent operation of automated drilling rigs in underground coal mine gas management, low personnel allocation efficiency, and the existence of information silos, a remote ground control technology for automated drilling rigs—functioning as downhole drilling robots—has been researched and applied. By implementing a comprehensive intelligent upgrade to the automated drilling rigs and integrating sensing, switching, gateway, and vision devices, a high-speed communication network based on wireless self-organizing networks was established, enabling integrated surface-underground operations. The project developed a multi-level centralized control system capable of remote monitoring and operation of at least two drilling rigs from surface stations, underground control points, and mobile terminals, with support for flexible switching between multiple control modes. Field trials demonstrate that this robotic drilling system has successfully optimized the operation mode from “two operators per machine” to “one centralized operator with assisted inspection,” significantly reducing personnel in high-risk areas while improving drilling efficiency and safety. This research provides a practical and economical solution for intelligent and unmanned gas management in coal mines, and offers significant insights into the deployment of industrial robotics, remote control, and smart mining technologies. It validates the effective integration of IoT, wireless communication, and centralized control in hazardous environments, highlighting the feasibility of autonomous robotic drilling platforms in underground applications.
