Specialist Robotic Services:
 
 
There are many different types of obstructions in drains and sewers encountered by our clients. These are above and beyond the dirt and debris that are always present in the sewer.

The removal of these obstructions is a core part of the work we undertake either as a standalone repair or as a necessary first step in pipe rehabilitation work. 

We have the most technologically advanced equipment, and skills to ensure a speedy and cost efficient process. Our robotic cutting services have saved our clients thousands of pounds by remotely cutting out obstructions and repairing defects in pipes, thus avoiding the excessive cost of excavations.
 
     
  The remotely controlled HydroCut robotic cutter with a 7.3 hp high pressure water turbine motor, water-cooled to prevent overheating and increasing reliability, spins the cutting head at 30,000 rpm. The motor is designed with minimal wear parts for dependability and its diamond-impregnated, hardened-steel cutting bits will cut through most materials including roots, grout, concrete, steel rebar and most other obstructions in pipe diameters from 4 to 24 inches.
 
Twin onboard cameras eliminate the need for auxiliary CCTV inspection equipment and rinse nozzles clean cutting debris off the lenses to enable the operator to have a clear view of the cutting process.
 
  After a sewer has been relined, a critical part of rehabilitation is the reconnection of the laterals. Our remotely-controlled HydroCut robotic unit is used to reinstate the lateral connections in the relined pipe. Its function is straight-forward: the robot cutter unit is inserted into the pipe and advanced toward the lateral connection (located via a coordinated measurement). The cutter makes an initial hole to relieve any flow that may have accumulated in the lateral before removing the remainder of the lining material from the lateral, opening and restoring the connection.
