In today's rapidly advancing technological world, manhole scanners have become important tools in various fields such as geology, engineering, and environmental science. This magical device can reveal the secrets deep underground, helping us to better understand and utilize underground resources.
Manhole scanner utilizes 180° panoramic imaging and camera technology; with high-fidelity images, a high-precision built-in 3D compass in the probe, it can measure the structure angle of boreholes in any direction. The profile is automatically extracted in real-time, the image is clear and vivid, the depth is automatically accurately calibrated, and it can record full-range, full-column videos, trajectories, and imaging for all observation holes (vertical holes/horizontal holes/inclined holes/tilted angle holes).
Inspection hole CCTV equipment has evolved from being heavy and complex to being portable and integrated with technological advancements. The signals collected have also evolved from original analog tape recordings to digital signal acquisition and direct processing by corresponding image processing software. Despite this, the main equipment components and working principles have not changed much. Inspection manhole scanner systems mainly include: downhole camera, surface controller, transmission cable, recorder, monitor, winch, and tripod.
Manhole scanners have a wide range of applications. Firstly, in the field of geological exploration, manhole scanners are widely used in mineral resource surveys, petroleum and natural gas exploration, geothermal research, and more. Through this device, geologists can obtain detailed information about underground rock layers, providing important data for resource development and utilization.
Secondly, in the field of environmental science, manhole scanners are used for soil pollution investigations, groundwater research, wetland ecosystem analysis, and more. This device can help scientists understand the condition of the underground environment, providing decision support for environmental protection and restoration.
Additionally, manhole scanners are also widely used in the construction field. Foundation inspection, underground pipeline detection, tunnel and subway construction, and more, all require the use of this device. By obtaining detailed information about underground structures, engineers can assess the safety and stability of buildings and avoid potential risks.
