When a pipeline flow must not be blocked and no shutdown is allowed, Flow-Through Pipe Packers (FTP) offer the perfect trenchless repair solution. Designed to enable continuous flow while applying repairs, these packers are essential for utility systems, sewage networks, and industrial pipelines where downtime is not an ...
Pipelines are not always straight. In fact, many systems, especially in older urban networks, contain multiple bends and angles. Whether it is a 45-degree deflection or a full 90-degree elbow, these curves can be a major challenge when repairs are needed. Traditional pipe repair tools, designed for linear sections, simply cannot conform to the geometry. That is where Bendy Packers come into ...
One of the state’s largest water utility is facing significant challenges with excessive inflow and infiltration (I/I) in its gravity collection system, consisting of over 1,500 miles. Precipitation events often result in immediate flow responses within the collection network, at times up to 3 times the average daily flow ...
Electro Scan’s Focused Electrode Leak Location technology, or FELL, offers an innovative departure from legacy pipe inspection methods, such as visual CCTV, dye testing, smoke testing, among many others. The key advantages of FELL inspection is obtaining precise pipe defect locations, to within 1 cm, as well as a quantified infiltration ...

The official definition of a robot is “a machine or device that operates automatically or by remote control,” yet this does not really define the information and functions that the robots in the Trenchless Technology industry provide to engineers from local water authorities, municipalities and It can be argued that the first step towards what we know today as ‘robots’ was the use of tube ...
Zooming’s goal is to rapidly classify infrastructure as either satisfactory or in need of maintenance, mapping, rehab, or additional CCTV inspection. These classifications allow a supervisor to prioritize maintenance activities confidently, committing precious maintenance resources—inspection crawlers, cleaning trucks, cutters/rodders, GPS ...
