A robotic pipe crawler is a machine that can be used to search a pipe for any structural flaws or damage. These machines are equipped with panning cameras and lights that allow them to scope out the areas they search through for signs of leaks or broken sections. Because they allow for unexposed pipes to be examined without being exposed, robotic pipe crawlers are an invaluable diagnostic tool. There are two very general models for robotic pipe crawlers. One crawls along the inside of a pipe. This model is useful for pipes that are buried underground because it allows the pipe to be explored without being dug up. The lights it is equipped with allow it to search for problems in the subterranean darkness. This type of pipe crawler is limited by its inability to traverse vertical sections of pipe. The other general robotic pipe crawler design crawls along the outside of a pipe. It fastens itself to the outside of a pipe using clamps. This kind of pipe-inspecting robot can crawl vertically, but because it works outside of the pipe, it is only viable under certain circumstances. Robotic pipe crawlers come equipped with a camera that transmits a signal back to a control module. The control module houses a screen for the camera’s display, and the controls for the robot. Because the camera can pan, the operator can examine the robot’s surroundings before issuing further commands. These robotic pipe crawlers are used to inspect pipes for any kinds of problems, foulness, or leaks they might have. If you have a pipe that needs examining but don’t want to dig it up or tear down a wall, a robotic pipe crawler may be a worthy rental or investment. The robotic pipe crawler rental experts at Atlas Inspection Technologies have many quality new and used robotic pipe crawlers available for sale or rental.
