Our microtunnelling equipment is used for
for installation of pipelines to
exacting grade and line, as required
for gravity sewerage or drainage systems. We can offer
microtunnelling equipment which can install pipe sizes from 150 mm
through to 1200mm in diameter.
Pipes made from PVC, steel, earthenware fiberglass
and concrete can be installed with our systems.
A
range of microtunneling systems are available including:
|
Rockman Slurry System
This is
one of the toughest rock slurry systems on the market. Ground water, sand,
rock, boulders and even concrete are not a match for Rockmans specially
designed tri-cone cutter head. Sizes from 300 -1200 are available, and with
a unique splitting head design bore pits as small as 2m diameter can be
utilised with heads to 600mm.

Pilot System
Our pilot system can be
used in soft ground conditions such as sand, soil and soft clays.
Accuracy is achieved by installing a steerable pilot rod, using ground
displacement. Once the target hole is reached a reamer is
attached and pipe is installed. Ideal for installing PVC pipes. |

Steerable Auger
This system uses a hydraulically steerable head to achieve its accuracy and an auger conveyor to remove
cutting from the face. These machines are capable of drilling in
a great variety of ground conditions, from wet running sands through to
rock. |
