Microtunnelling  

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.
